The seventh and the final sin is unwillingness or inability to tap into something that one might call the source within.
To understand what I mean by this, it will be useful to know that all of us have a source of happiness right within us. A source that is accessible to us at all times, if only we had the ability to tap into it.
This source is the state of mindfulness, which is the ability to focus attention, but in a sort of a kind and non-judgmental way, on anything that we choose to.
As we will see in week six, being mindful makes us happy. Or put differently, we're happy when we are in a state of mindfulness. Incredibly, this is true even when you're experiencing something unpleasant. Example.
