About the book

Happiness Is Overrated by Cuong Lu is a religion and spirituality book for adult readers.

Stop chasing happiness and reconnect to the meaning of each moment with this poignant guide, told through vignettes of life growing up as a Buddhist monk under the spiritual leader Thich Nhat Han. We spend so much time in pursuit of happiness-trying to purchase it, experience it, meditate our way toward it-but happiness is elusive and doesn't last.

According to the teachings of the Buddha, Cuong Lu writes, "Suffering is not a problem to be solved. It is a truth to be recognised. Happiness Is Overrated invites us to look deeply at the truths in our lives-not glossing over or denying our suffering-and to focus on the meaning and value already within us.
