This paper proposes that Gomchens (sgom chen), "great meditators" who make up a special type of religious practitioner in Bhutan, are a significant resource as advisors in the implementation of Gross National Happiness. The author gives a detailed description of the Gomchen tradition, their education and duties within the community. The paper then discusses how these qualities and activities are well suited to promoting the ideals of Gross National Happiness. (Ben Deitle 2006-02-07)
