There are many formulas we try for being happy but unfortunately no formula realy works. Because we do not try to find out the root cause of it and until and unless we would not find the root of it how can we solve the exact problem?
If a person is feeling hungry and crying so much to get the food but people around him try to give so many things but no one try to ask what exactly he wants?
One may think why he is not stop crying? But an intelligent person go and ask him what is his real problem and try to give solution accordingly.
Same way only Lord Krishna knows the real source of happiness and He only can give us the formula for it and that is already mentioned in B.G. 5.23.
शक्नोतीहैव य: सोढुं प्राक्शरीरविमोक्षणात् ।
कामक्रोधोद्भवं वेगं स युक्त: स सुखी नर: ॥ 5.23 ॥
Before giving up this present body, if one is able to tolerate the urges of the material senses and check the force of desire and anger, he is well situated and is happy in this world.
There are the forces of talk, forces of anger, forces of mind, forces of the stomach, forces of the genitals, and forces of the tongue. One who is able to control the forces of all these different senses, and the mind, is called gosvami.
Only after controlling senses and mind one can be happy and peaceful internally.
Hare Krishna!
