SUMMARY:What's This Thing We Call Happiness
DESCRIPTION:The Buddhist path is not about superficial or short-term happiness and wellbeing. It is not therapy or a quick fix of any kind. And yet the benefits of bringing the Buddhist view into our lives are immense. In a nutshell\, it can free us from the hopes and fears that entangle us and bog us down. \nIn this teaching\, Dominique Side will explore what happiness is. Is it wellbeing? Is it contentment? Where do we find happiness in a world full of suffering? And together we’ll investigate how can we set ourselves a goal of true\, sustainable\, long-lasting happiness. \nWith Dominique’s fresh approach to this topic\, this afternoon will be dynamic and interactive\, with opportunities for personal reflection\, group dialogue and questions & answers. \n  \nDetails \nDate: Sunday\, 11 October 2026\nTime: 2:30 – 5:00pm\nWhere: Ballam Ballam Place\, 15 Phoenix St\, Brunswick & Online\nFee (incl GST): Benefactor $75; Standard $55; Concession $18 \n  \nDominique Side’s Australian Tour \nThis talk is part of a series of five talks that Dominique will be presenting in Australia.
