This aspect is poignantly explained through the story of Four Friends from Jataka tales.\u00a0 The picture of Four Friends is found at\u00a0 many Dzongs, homes and public places.

Education and Basic Healthcare are free for all citizens and that takes the stress of people to a great extent.

Then pursuit of happiness would\u00a0 make more sense today. But then that is hindsight; we also see a number of retirees who wished that they had made more money in their productive years or wished they had been born in a period when there was\u00a0 a better infrastructure for air travel , Tele communication , medical facilities and general facilities that contributed to physical happiness.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Does a long life necessarily mean a happy life ? Does a ride in a bus to school mean a happier way to commute rather than a walk through the hillside in a pristine environment ?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Is physical comfort everything ? I never cease to wonder how some people can keep smiling even while engaged in mundane monotonous jobs like mopping floors or washing utensils.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">During my stay at Bhutan, I did not see many school buses but saw many children in groups of twos and threes merrily walking along. I did not see the monstrous school bags that we are used to in India.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While automobiles were not seen as an everyday requirement, good road network\u00a0 and provision of reliable power supply did make a lot of difference in happiness quotient.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Another issue is <span style=\"color: #000080;\"><em>freedom of choice<\/em><\/span> to evaluate happiness.\u00a0 The current generation is realizing that your freedom to choose \/ change\u00a0 your spouse also means your spouses&#8217;s freedom to do so. Even within the country , the states leading the suicide numbers are not impoverished , less literate states but the other way round. The young people with maximum freedom to choose are also maximum insecure. It doesn&#8217;t mean that arranged marriage is the best option followed by &#8217;till death do us apart&#8217;.\u00a0 But\u00a0 some consideration of concepts like culture\u00a0 and ethos\u00a0 as against merely swearing by\u00a0 individual freedom would lead to more stable state of happiness.<\/p>\n<p>Such nuances are not considered while ranking the countries on the happiness index.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"#top1\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><em><strong>Back <\/strong><\/em><\/span><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><em><strong>to<\/strong><\/em><\/span><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><em><strong> top<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong><a id=\"indvl_or_community\"><\/a><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Individual or community<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A traditional family puts happiness of the community first.

People consequently ascribe immense importance to what they feel, craving to experience more and more pleasures, while avoiding pain. Whatever we do throughout our lives, whether scratching our leg, fidgeting slightly in the chair, or fighting world wars, we are just trying to get pleasant feelings.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em><span style=\"color: #003366;\">People are liberated from suffering not when they experience this or that fleeting pleasure, but rather when they understand the impermanent nature of all their feelings, and stop craving them.

So, the simple act of getting out of the bed in time earns you a few units of happiness!.<\/p>\n<p>Then if you can make a short list of things to do for the day and actually doing those things gives you many more units of happiness by the time you go to bed.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, happiness cannot be stored ; one needs to be constantly doing things that needs to be done and being what you want to be all day and every day.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"#top1\">Back to top<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a id=\"friends\"><\/a><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Four Friends<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Western society believes values equality and individual freedom a great deal.
