Gurugram (Haryana) [India], June 24: Dr Rajesh K Pillania, popularly known as India's Happiness Professor and India's Happiness Guru, released his latest report titled "The Indian Practice of Happiness Secrets from Centenarians."



This research report tries to answer the question: What makes people live 100 years of a happy life in India? Qualitative research is used to answer this. During 2023-2025, men and women from diverse backgrounds across India who had lived happy lives of 100 years or more were interviewed until the study reached theoretical saturation, i.e., new inputs ceased and continued even beyond that. Based on this extensive research and interactions, the study identifies seven secrets to a 100-year happy life.

It presents "HARMONY of Happiness", a unique and first-of-its-kind Indian framework for happiness rooted in Indian wisdom and the Indian way of life. Its focus is on the practice of happiness and shares seven steps for achieving happiness.

The key takeaways from the report are five, namely, it is possible to live a hundred-year life of happiness in India; it identifies seven secrets and the various ways to practice each secret; by learning and practising these seven secrets of happiness, people can live a good life; organisations can use these findings to increase the happiness of their employees and their own benefits; and, governments can use these for policy-making and welfare measures.
