The roots of Buddhism
Bhutan is a Buddhist country and people often refer to it as the last stronghold of Vajrayana Buddhism. Buddhism was first introduced by the Indian Tantric master Guru Padmasambhava in the 8th century. Until then the people practiced Bonism a religion that worshipped all forms of nature, remnants of which are still evident. If you are looking for a Buddhist wedding, Bhutan is a perfect choice.
Gross National Happiness
Bhutan adheres to a belief and advocates that amassing material wealth does not necessarily lead to happiness. Bhutan is now trying to measure progress not by the popular idea of Gross Domestic Product but by through Gross National Happiness. While the emphasis is placed on both, prosperity and happiness, the latter is considered to be more significant. Let’s enjoying a few days of tranquillity in Bhutan after your wedding.
