Organizing Good: The Bhutanese Chapter of the World Happiness Foundation In a world often dominated by narratives of organized crime, the World Happiness Foundation is charting a different course by organizing good on a global scale. Our latest endeavor, the Bhutanese chapter, exemplifies this mission. Rooted in the pillars of Arts, Spirituality, and Education, this chapter is a pioneering initiative that seeks to bring about profound change through collaboration, co-creation, and community-driven action. Co-Creation and Interconnection: The Heartbeat of Our Mission This collaborative spirit is at the core of our mission in Bhutan, where we work closely with local communities to harness their rich cultural heritage. By co-creating solutions rather than imposing them, we empower individuals to become change-makers and elevate society as a whole toward happiness and peace. Powerful Collaborations Driving Change Our efforts in Bhutan are amplified by partnerships with visionary local and international collaborators who share our commitment to a happier, more compassionate world. ELC School and eduCaring for Universal Happiness: Led by Deki Choden and Tim Huang, this initiative is central to our educational efforts in Bhutan. By integrating happiness and well-being into the educational curriculum, we are ensuring that students receive a holistic education that nurtures both their intellect and spirit. This collaboration, showcased in the eduCaring for Universal Happiness video, embodies our vision of education as a vehicle for universal happiness. Paro College of Education and Arts: Our partnership with Paro College has been instrumental in advancing the Gross National Happiness (GNH) agenda, particularly through the recent GNH Symposium on re-imagining education. Co-hosted with Paro College, this symposium served as a platform for rethinking education in ways that align with the values of GNH, positioning it as a North Star to counter the forces of polarization and greed that afflict many parts of the world. This collaboration has also given rise to the Meta Pets Thangka collection, co-created with students like Kezan and Tashi, which blends traditional Bhutanese art with modern concepts of happiness. A notable creation is the Meta Pet "Harmony," which integrates the Four Friends, a beloved Bhutanese symbol, as the emblem of our Bhutanese chapter. Dorje Phagmo Foundation: Our collaboration with Khandro Dorje Phagmo Rinpoche and the Dorje Phagmo Foundation enriches our work by integrating deep spiritual traditions with social action. This partnership allows us to draw on Bhutan's profound spiritual heritage to enhance the impact of our initiatives, blending ancient wisdom with contemporary solutions.

Bridging Happiness and Humanity: My Journey in India This past week in India was a deeply enriching experience, filled with moments of profound reflection and significant milestones. My journey began in Kolkata, a city teeming with history and contrasts, and culminated in Jaipur at the inaugural Global Happiness Forum. Both experiences left an indelible mark on my understanding of Happytalism as a new paradigm that transcends traditional economic and social models, focusing instead on holistic well-being and human dignity. Both Kolkata and Jaipur offered vivid illustrations of Happytalism in action. In Kolkata, the partnership with Adamas University represents an investment in the future, fostering happiness and well-being through education. Meanwhile, in Jaipur, the work of Jaipur Rugs demonstrates the power of businesses to uplift communities and create systemic change. Happytalism is about more than just economic prosperity; it’s about creating a world where everyone, regardless of their socioeconomic status, can lead a life of dignity and fulfillment. As I reflect on my experiences in India, I am more convinced than ever that this new paradigm is not just necessary—it is already taking shape in communities around the world. India, with its rich tapestry of contrasts and complexities, provided the perfect backdrop for this realization. From the inspiring legacy of Mother Teresa to the transformative work of NK Chaudary, I witnessed firsthand the impact of a commitment to happiness and well-being. It is this commitment that will drive us forward as we continue to co-create a world of freedom, consciousness, and happiness for all. #Happytalism #Happytalismo #Happiness #WorldHappiness #WorldHappinessFest #WorldHappinessAcademy #WorldHappinessPress #CWO #ChiefWellBeingOfficer #CoachingforHappiness #GNH #GGH #Leadership #Education #MentalHealth #Health #Hope #Forgiveness #Compassion #Love #Kindness #Consciousness #Freedom #Jaipur #India

The Meaning of Independence: Reflecting on Nationalism and Interdependence As I stand in India, a country rich in history and culture, during its Independence Day celebrations, I am drawn to reflect deeply on the true meaning of independence. What does it really mean to be independent? Independence from what? As we mark this day, it's essential to explore the implications of independence, especially in the context of nationalism, a construct that has shaped the world for centuries but has also brought its share of issues and conflicts. Nationalism: A Double-Edged Sword Nationalism, one of humanity's major constructs, has been instrumental in the formation of nation-states, giving people a sense of identity and belonging. However, it has also been the root cause of many conflicts and divisions. National identity is often used to manipulate citizens, urging them to pay allegiance to a flag, a symbol, or a national ideal, with the implication that being part of one country is inherently better than being part of another. This sense of superiority, this us-versus-them mentality, has led to wars, colonization, and the marginalization of countless communities across the globe. The world has been organized around countries, with borders drawn on maps that dictate where we belong and who we are. If you are not part of and loyal to one of these entities, you are often seen as an outsider, an anomaly in a system that thrives on division and exclusivity. Nationalism, while providing a sense of belonging, often excludes others, creating a fragmented world where unity is sacrificed at the altar of national pride. Global Citizenship and Small Community Governance In contrast to nationalism, my vision leans toward global citizenship—a concept that transcends borders and national identities. Global citizenship encourages us to see ourselves as part of a larger, interconnected world where our responsibilities extend beyond the confines of our countries. It advocates for small community governance—towns, villages, or cities—where people have a direct say in how they are governed, fostering a sense of belonging that is inclusive rather than exclusive.

What Ego State is Driving Your Life? Unveiling the Ego States Driving Our Lives: Insights from Transpersonal Analysis and Eric Berne In our everyday interactions, a complex interplay of psychological states determines our responses and behavior, significantly influencing the quality of our relationships and personal growth. Rooted in the pioneering work of psychiatrist Eric Berne, the theory of Transactional Analysis provides a valuable framework to understand these dynamics through the concept of ego states: the Parent, the Adult, and the Child. Each of these states encompasses a system of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors through which we engage with the world. Understanding and managing these states can lead to profound personal and interpersonal growth, especially when combined with insights from transpersonal psychology, which emphasizes holistic and spiritual aspects of the human experience.
