The Way to
Happiness, a book written by humanitarian
L. Ron Hubbard in the early 1980s, is comprised of 21 precepts, each one
predicated on the fact that one’s survival depends on the survival of
others—and that without the survival of others, neither joy nor happiness are
attainable. In the three decades since it was authored, more than 115 million
copies of the book passed hand to hand, thus inspiring the international
movement which is spreading throughout Nashville, TN.
Since the beginning of 2023, volunteers have taken to
the streets and parks of Nashville to continue distributing
booklets to help people learn the concepts
contained within the common-sense moral code and
uplift communities.
Most recently, volunteers distributed dozens upon dozens of
the booklet to neighbors during community events in a suburb of Nashville, and
are already planning the next outing.
Mr. Hubbard begins the book with these words: “Your
survival is important to me.” He goes on to say, “You are important to other
people. You are listened to. You can influence others. The happiness or
unhappiness of others you could name is important to you. Without too much trouble,
using this book, you can help them survive and lead happier lives.”
