A layman's opinion on GNH

Phajoding
P.C. Riku Dhan
It is a holistic and inclusive approach of physical, psychological and material development. The ideology guides and provides means to achieve sustainable development. Just as a house needs four strong pillars to make it a home which can withstand the forces of four natural calamities such as earthquake, flood, fire and windstorm, GNH is supported by its four inclusive pillars to withstand any kind of internal and external forces.
The principle of GNH is to harmonize oneself as an individual, revive symbiotic relationship with the natural environment, and strengthen the community vitality among others inorder to achieve the national goal of peace and prosperity. The resonance of this national harmony will help achieve the ultimate global goals of wellbeing and happiness all over the world. This enlightening ideology respects the rights of every beings (living or non-living) and harmonize the world.

In this era of Sustainable Development, ideology such as this can help propel the achievement of all SDGs and breed peace and prosperity in the world. GNH balances the material and spiritual growth for a sustainable and inclusive development.
