A collection of teachings from Hindu scriptures on everlasting happiness.
The person who is intelligent and wise and who knows what defects lie hidden in the objects [of enjoyment], knows how to free himself from the bonds of desire. Only such a person is fit to tread the path that leads to liberation. (Sarva-Vedanta-Siddhanta-Sarasangraha, 61)

The intelligent man gives up happiness and sorrow by
developing concentration of mind on the Atman and thereby meditating on the
ancient Deity who is inscrutable, lodged inaccessibly, located in the
intellect, and seated in the midst of heart. (Katha Upanishad, 1.2.12)
