Uniqueness in Happiness

Participants, Volunteers and Instructors: Blissed

On September 16, 17 and 18 we had a HAPPINESS program of The Art of Living. At the end of the program, the 74 participants had no boundary of happiness. “I was in search of happiness all around, but now I realize that I myself am the source of happiness” shared one of them. The other exclaimed, “Now, I can be happy for no reasons!” Yes! They all were happy, irritatingly happy, as we say in The Art of Living.

This Happiness program was unique in many ways. As I think about it, I find several unique features of the program:

1.      It was conducted by 4 Art of Living Instructors.

2.      They were Doctor Shakuna Dani, Engineer Durgesh Pradhan, Governmental Officer Yadab Raut and National Youth Awardees Bhawesh Khanal.

3.      Dr. Shakuna Dani is the youngest female Art of Living instructor of Nepal.

4.      Er. Durgesh Pradhan is the youngest Art of Living Instructor of Nepal.

5.      Shakuna, Durgesh and Yadab had previously done Art of Living courses with Bhawesh Khanal.

6.      It was the same hall where Shakuna had first done her Art of Living program.

7.      Durgesh was Shakuna’s Volunteer leader then.

8.      Art of Living course was done in that hall after almost 2 years.

9.      This was the first 3 days Happiness program open to all as per the recent instruction of His Holiness Sri Sri Ravishankar

10.  This was the first course that Durgesh, Shakuna and Yadab took together.

11.  The participants were college goers to college principals, housewives to stock brokers, social servicers to IT officers.

12.  One participant had 60% blockage of the vein in heart and she had tremendous progress within three days.

Even if you missed this Happiness program, you can join the upcoming one. It is on September 28- October 1. We shall have lot fun there!
