In this video, Rinzin Dem narrates “The Story of a Man Called Thala,” which seems to be a version of the well-known story Meymey Heley Heley. The plot of the story narrated in this video differs only in some details from Meymey Heley Heley’s. “The Story of a Man Called Thala” ends with the main character eating dough, whereas in Meymey Heley Heley the main character sings in the end. Both stories convey the message that the more lust we have, the more we suffer; and that the less we desire, the greater our happiness will be (something that seems to be in harmony with the concept of Gross National Happiness promoted by the Bhutanese government). In both stories, the main characters show their detachment by not trying to gain anything from a priceless relic they found.
