The pursuit of Shlaimus

The pursuit of happiness is not a Jewish value, the pursuit of Shlaimus is.
from the Shiur "Parshat Behar & Bechukotai: Rewarding Reward "

Teacher: Mrs. Shira Smiles Class: Parsha for Our Lives 5770

Running after physical pleasures will not make us happy, it will just make us want more pleasure.  True pleasure comes from Shlaimus. As Luzato says: the only true Shlaimus is Devakus with Hashem.
