“When your happiness is dependent upon what is happening outside of you, constantly you live as a slave to the external situation.”

Sadhguru

Simplified Meaning:

If your mood depends on things around you, it's like you're letting the world control how you feel. Imagine you only feel happy when the weather is perfect. If a rainy day comes, you're suddenly upset. This means your happiness isn't in your control, it's up to the weather. Instead, try to find joy inside yourself, like enjoying a hobby you love no matter what the weather is. In history, people like Nelson Mandela found hope and courage even when they were in prison because they kept a positive attitude inside themselves. By focusing on your inner peace and joy, you can stay happy no matter what happens outside.
