Your intention unlocks the power of synchronicity – meaningful coincidence - which governs all of our liv

Bhutan one of the smallest countries in the world measures Gross National Happiness : The Bhutanese grounding in Buddhist ideals suggests that beneficial development of human society takes place when material and spiritual development occur side by side to complement and reinforce each other. The four pillars of GNH are the promotion of sustainable development , preservation and promotion of cultural values, conservation of the natural environment, and establishment of good governance. Sounds like a good idea to me!
