To be unhappy on seeing others’ happiness reveals a pathology of our own mind. When someone is happy, especially when somebody is happy in a relationship whereby they have replaced us with that person, it is natural that we may feel unhappy about it. However, rather than resenting that person – either the person who has replaced us with someone else or the person who has replaced us – we need to focus on ourselves and try to see what it is inside us that makes us truly valuable. And when we find our core spirituality that is a part of our divinity, being parts of the divine, that is where we can find a core that is never replaced. And therein lies true inner security.
