The cultivation of human happiness has long captivated human imagination. The recent emergence of positive psychology movement with mainstream western psychology is the latest iteration of this millennia-long search. Tough we’ve been told of Plato’s that “the unreflected life is not worth living,” what is less obvious is the means by which one engages in this reflection. In other words, as any positive psychologist will tell you, we are a society with few methods of cultivating “the good life”. In response to this dissatisfaction, a growing number of people has sought possible solutions in the positive psychological systems of South Asia. Asian contemplative traditions are essentially psychologies concerned with the bottom line of personal existence, subjective experience. These inherently practical methods emerged out of context where body and brain never split; where philosophy didn’t stay too far from concerns of daily life; and where systematic practices for change, rather than mere theoretical exercise, play a central role in the creation of virtue. The Asian explorers of the internal world focused directly on the quality of experience and developed methods of training attention to systematically transform it . Marieta’s book “Love is the Law” taps into this ancient practice and shows us how to transform our lives from within.
