What is happiness - who has the most ?

Have we lost the plot in the west ? Are we chasing a commercialised debt fuelled marketing dream ? What can we learn from Buddhism ? According to the world index of happiness the happiest country in the world is the minute kingdom of Bhutan. How have they achieved this ? In this short trailer for the documentary movie Bhutan - The Middle Way to Happiness - is food for thought.

If a man speaks or acts with evil thoughts then pain will follow him. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness will follow him, like a shadow that never leaves his side.
