#090 - Mudita

This week's word is a concept, more than a word. Hopefully it inspires not only creativity, but also more joy in life itself...


Mudita



Muditā


Mudita is the Buddhist practice of joy in the good fortune of others; it's one of the four divine virtues. It is a Sanskrit/Pali term that means “joy” or “pleasure.” It refers to the kind of pleasure that can be obtained from seeing other people do well, a pure kind that is gained from another’s accomplishments without any form of self-interest involved.
