Naukluea, Thailand —
At the Rotary International Regal Pre-PELS, a quiet moment turned into a ripple that may well become a wave. When Rtn. Ranjit Bijoor, Founder of Pranasattva.AI and Country Head of BritishLearning.UK, released Be Happy, My Way – When Life Presses the RESET Button, he wasn’t just sharing a story — he was starting a dialogue.

The book explores what happens when life forces us to stop — through an unexpected call, an illness, or a loss — and how that pause can become the beginning of something new. At its launch, Padmashree Dr. Mukesh Batra described it as “a handbook for gratitude.”

Moments later, Ajahn Mae Chee Brigitte, the Buddhist nun from Naukluea Monastery, read a few lines and simply said, “This book heals.” Her sincerity moved the audience to tears.

District Governor Rajan Duaa presented a Scroll of Honour to Rtn. Bijoor, acknowledging the book’s alignment with Rotary International’s values of compassion and service. And when PDG Rajendra Agarwal added with a grin, “The only thing you don’t get on Amazon is happiness,” laughter broke the silence — a release of emotion everyone seemed to share.

Within days, Rotary Clubs across continents began requesting copies. Book-reading circles are being planned. Social-media threads now quote passages from Be Happy, My Way with hashtags like #ResetYourLife and #RotaryReads.

Speaking to this reporter later, Ranjit Bijoor said, “The response reminds me that happiness is contagious — you just have to let it start somewhere.” His wellness initiative Pranasattva.AI and his education platform BritishLearning.UK both now incorporate the book’s message into workshops on mindful leadership and emotional resilience.

What began as a Rotary launch in Thailand may soon become a global campaign — proving that when purpose meets honesty, even a single book can change the conversation.
