Paul discusses pitfalls that hamper mundane happiness, including
expectations and attachment to views of how life should be, followed
by ways to develop it using practices such as loving-kindness and
service to others. He then describes how the practice of vipassana
meditation, by looking at suffering and its true nature, leads
eventually to supramundane happiness by the way of understanding and
letting go of the pursuit of happiness.
