Anne Parker: Gross National Happiness - The Inner and Outer Practice

Published: March 7, 2018, 1 a.m.

When people hear the words "gross national happiness," they tend to envision a sort of idealization of what's really going on in Bhutan, the country that originated the concept. I watch our students while we're in Bhutan sometimes idealize things, and then hit a sort of crash as they see the reality, and then come out with a really deep sense of excitement and amazement about what's actually happening. We'd like to take that idealization off its pedestal altogether. Special Guest: Anne Parker.
