How Temporary Happiness Destroys Us – The Trap You Must Avoid | Swami Mukundananda

Are you unknowingly chasing the wrong kind of happiness? In this powerful talk, Swami Mukundananda reveals how temporary pleasures and short-lived thrills slowly destroy our inner peace — and why the mind keeps falling into this dangerous pleasure trap again and again.

Drawing from Vedic and Bhagavad Gita wisdom, Swamiji explains the three types of material happiness:

🔸 Tamasic happiness – false relief through intoxication, anger, or harmful habits
🔸 Rajasic happiness – desire-driven pleasure that never truly satisfies
🔸 Satvic happiness – calm, uplifting, character-building joy

Through relatable stories — from cigarette addiction to anger venting to the tale of three dacoits — Swamiji uncovers how the mind tricks us into pursuing the lower forms of joy while keeping us away from real fulfillment.
Finally, he guides us toward lasting inner joy and the path that leads beyond the three gunas, toward divine bliss.

If you’ve ever wondered why desires never end, why pleasure fades so fast, or how to break free from harmful patterns — this life-changing video will give you clarity, strength, and the right direction.

WATCH TILL THE END — it may shift your entire understanding of happiness.
