True happiness does not lie in Buddhism, or any religion for that matter. True happiness lies inside you, you decide what will make you truly happy and go for it. Buddhism if I recall, believes that in order to get rid of suffering you must cease to desire, right? Because in Buddha's belief, desire causes suffering. One can not truly cease to desire. We always want something. Whether it be for themself, someone they love, or for the world, we always desire something. That is why I think true happiness lies inside, and nothing else.
