While the so Called Western or more appropriately European culture always valued happiness ass the worth goal and something to strive for, Buddhism puts very little emphasis on it at all. Why would anyone not want to be happy, you may ask, and the answer to that is.... because it's a temporary state of mind usualy followed by unhappiness.
So what's so special about equanimity yoou may ask yourself, why should I strive for it? Well, equanimity is a perfect balance of the mind, which is not swayed by either positive or negative feelings or emotions. Equanimity is mind being perfectly neutral to external and internal happenings. Additional bonus is that mind trained to be blanced and neutral is very vivid and aware of everrything.
So which one you value most and why if you care to elaborate?
There is so many dumb ass threads out there lately that we need something intellectual, because we look like a bunch of retards to the outside world!
Poll coming right up.
