Mr. Hubbard published The Way to Happiness in 1981 to help arrest the moral decline in society. The principles outlined in the book have been used around the world to help restore moral values in the society. In Los Angeles, the book has positively impacted the lives of many individuals, including members of the Bengali community.

It is a strong belief in the Bengali culture that knowledge is the pathway to inner tranquility and social harmony. In The Way to Happiness, board members of the Bengali American Hindu Society found "practical principles that assist individuals and communities in living ethically, strengthening social bonds, and fostering peaceful coexistence across cultures and faiths."

In the occasion of their annual Saraswati Puja –a major Hindu festival honoring the arrival of spring and the pursuit of knowledge –the BAHS presented a certificate to Mr. Hubbard "in recognition of his humanitarian work and his contributions to promoting peace, moral responsibility, and understanding throughout the world," and in acknowledgement of his non-religious moral guide The Way to Happiness.
