A president of a state is not happy. God Indra is not happy. A sage is happy. A Yogi is happy. He who has controlled his mind is happy.
Happiness comes from peace of mind.
Peace of mind comes from a state of mind wherein there are no desires, no Moha , no Vishaya , no thoughts of objects. You should forget all ideas of pleasure before you enter the domain of peace. WITH PAIN You cannot have pleasure without pain. Wherever there is pleasure, there is pain. You cannot have absolute happiness in a relative physical plane of pairs of opposites.
