NEW YORK, Oct. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Coinciding with the official opening of the
first Happy Science temple in New York City, prolific author and 'living
Buddha' Master Ryuho Okawa has penned The Science of Happiness: 10 Principles
for Manifesting Your Divine Nature (Destiny Books, an imprint of Inner
Traditions, October, 2009 - http://www.innertraditions.com/ryuhookawablog).


The Science of Happiness offers readers the 10 principles Okawa says can serve
as their compass for a spiritual life. These are Happiness, Love, Mind,
Enlightenment, Progress, Wisdom, Utopia, Salvation, Reflection and Prayer.
Okawa shows how following these principles can bring happiness and spiritual
growth not only to ourselves but to all those around us. He provides the tools
necessary to transform one's inner world to be receptive to true happiness and
enlightenment--and to find one's true purpose in life.


Okawa's Happy Science has also recently opened its newest temple at 79
Franklin St. in TriBeCa. Yuki Oikawa, CEO of the Happy Science Movement in the
US and primary US spokesperson for Okawa, says that at a time when the city's
happiness seems to be at an all-time low, the temple's programs are designed
to help New Yorkers discover the 10 principles and how to apply them in order
to have more joy in their lives. "My parents named me Yuki, meaning Happiness,
and that is what I am here now to bring to New Yorkers," he says.
