The Way to Happiness Education

No one questions that moral standards have declined over the decades. Skyrocketing drug and alcohol abuse, now all too prevalent among young people, has brought increased crime to schools, cities and countries. Statistics show that proliferation of drugs and escalating violence go hand in hand. Honesty, decency and a sense of self-respect are perverted daily from a multitude of sources. Our youth are exposed to peer pressure, and associations with ill-intentioned people who seek to make their living by destructive means and degradation, without discrimination or scruple. And as we are all too aware, violence is not just limited to dark alleys and back streets. Bloodshed in school classrooms, school lunch halls and even playgrounds is far too common. We are committed to making a change using The Way to Happiness—a common sense guide to better living which has been distributed to 87 million people in 97 languages.
