What makes us truly happy?
Is true happiness momentary or eternal?
If true happiness manifests itself before you, would you be able to recognize it?
Under what conditions does true happiness manifest itself?
If, as the Buddha taught, there is no self, how can we speak of happiness?

In this public talk, three revered Korean Buddhist monks—Ven. Dr. Jongmae Park, Ven. Beonhyu, and Ven. Gwangjeon—will explain the various methods used in Korean Buddhism today to find, recognize, and nurture true happiness in a world defined by the never ending pursuit of material prosperity.
