"The booklet is called ‘The Way to Happiness.’ And of course I know for sure that this booklet will bring peace.” -- Mordi

CIVILIZATION

"... civilization is not something inborn or imperishable; it must be acquired anew by every generation. Man differs from the beast only by education, which may be defined as the technique of transmitting civilization... Through church, or family, or school, or otherwise, there must be a unifying moral code." -- Will Durant

The Way to Happiness book can be that unifying moral code. The Way to Happiness book is not religious, which makes it suitable for use or distribution by anyone or any organization, including schools, businesses,  government offices and even religious groups. With over 67 million books distributed, in 91 languages and in over 100 countries, our campaign is the largest grassroots movement in the world promoting sound principles of conduct.

Booklets against bombings

The brave members of our affiliate in the Middle East, The Association for Prosperity and Security in the Middle East, continue to actively promote peace even through the danger of ongoing bombings.

An email campaign offering a free eBook edition of The Way to Happiness has started just this week and already over 2500 Hebrew editions of The Way to Happiness eBook have been downloaded. The Arabic campaign needs to finalize the translation of the email being sent and is nearly ready to launch.

In addition to this eBook campaign, the distribution of The Way to Happiness booklets and posters is also moving forward. Below is a letter sent to Danny Vidislavski, the Executive Director of The Association for Prosperity and Security in the Middle East, from supporters in the field distributing materials in Northern Israel where the bombings are occurring. Work is also being done to re-establish distribution channels in Palestine and other neighboring areas.

Letter from supporters in the field distributing materials in Northern Israel

 

Hi Danny,

 

Amir called me yesterday and asked me to join the team that distributes booklets in shelters in the bombarded Haifa. I started getting ready and my daughter heard about the mission and also got hooked on the idea and decided that she was coming, too.

 

On 22:00 we met with Maria, Yafa, Haym and Karmit im Givat Olga on road No. 2.  We moved The Way to Happiness booklets from Yafa's car into mine ...

 

 

and then we headed for Haifa to meet the charming Don Shaul, at his house.

 

At 23:30 we picked up Don, a whiz kid and a warrior of human and youth rights, who then commanded our mission and we proceeded to the public shelters in Haifa.

 

We were divided into teams with walkie-talkies that I had brought from home. On our way to the shelters we stopped in several multi-story buildings and we distributed copies of The Way to Happiness booklets at every door.

 

 

And at every opportunity we also put booklets on cars and gave copies directly to the people we contacted outside.

 

In one public shelter we hung The Way to Happiness posters and left booklets on all the chairs there.

 

 

After about 3 hours we came back to Don's house. Maria, Haym and Karmit stayed the night at Don's so they could continue the mission in the morning.

 

Lantan, Yafa and I went back to the center of Israel.

 

 

In short, it was really fun -- and to our surprise, when we distributed booklets, not one missile fell on Hiafa! We went back home tired but contented.

 

Much love,

 

Dudi Ben David
