So a monk and a bishop walk into a bar… If someone had to sum up the friendship of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama and Archbishop Desmond Tutu, maybe that's how it would begin.

A documentary to be streamed live on Facebook on June 2nd celebrates the incredible friendship of these two global icons. Called Mission: JOY, it's a tour-de-force about creating  happiness in one's life, no matter the conditions.

WS will have a live stream of the film on our Facebook page starting on Thursday, June 2 at 5:00pm PST, and ending on Saturday, June 4 at 5:00pm PST.

Throughout the film, these renowned spiritual leaders share the ways in which they've harnessed ancient wisdom and perseverance to find, seek, and maintain joy-even in the face of great adversity and during troubled times like the ones in which we are now living.

An Academy Award-winning documentary team shot and produced Mission: Joy, which took place in the final years of the Archbishop's life, and offers an unparalleled glimpse into the teasing and laughter the pair shared for years.

The hope is not only to show people how to create joy, but that the benefits of joy a many-fold for both physical and mental health. Berkeley is working with the film to carry out The Big Joy Project, a large citizen science experiment that prescribes certain acts of joy depending on the person, to see how much it can enrich the public health.
