Answer:
1) We have not to misunderstand ‘pleasure’ with ‘happiness’. A lavish lifestyle, a rich home a big bungalow, and a luxurious car are today treated as the means of ‘happiness’. We are very ‘happy’ if we have all this. But it is such a mistaken belief. All these are ‘pleasures’ and ‘comforts’ of life. Physical comforts are the mirage which gives a false sense of ‘happiness’.
Man has three parts of his being the physical, the mental, and the spiritual. Physical comforts are the lowest in the ladder. Healthy thoughts, right behavior give one the mental well-being. Serving others, being good to people, gives one a miner solace and satisfaction that is a spiritual well being.

So here lies the difference between ‘pleasure’ and ‘happiness’. To have a lot of eating and drink is all enjoying the pleasures of life.
A hermit living in a hut may have so much self-satisfaction. He serves people who go to him with words of high thoughts and advice on worthy living. He is a man in rags, eats whatever he gets as a charity, still he is ‘happy’. He does not have the ‘pleasures’ of life but he has the ‘happiness’ of his mind and soul.
We today have everything at our command, Science is at our beck and call. We have all the comforts of life which our ancestors never could even dream of. Means of transport, means of communication, means of entertainment — Cinema, T.V. with so many channels — phones, E-mails, Fax, Internet whatnot. Still, if you ask even the richest of men if he is really ‘happy’, he may just shake his head to show ‘no, not that’. There are worries, there are anxieties, there is no sense of satisfaction or contentment.
Men of the past had little but they lived all in a joint family serving each other, one another in their needs sharing whatever they could produce or earn. They lived a life of frugality but contentment. They worked hard and could have a sound sleep at night. The home housed cousins, brothers, uncles, aunts all under one roof. Now there are two room cubicles in large busy towns no space even for parents to come and stay. There had been an affectionate bond binding all in the past; there is a distance now even among the brothers. ‘What is this life so full of care’ is what can be said of today’s living.
