Dear All,
I wish you all very happy new year. May All be Happy and healthy everywhere.
The beginning of a new year, seriously, is a laughing matter. It is indeed a laughing matter because in the realms of time there's no beginning and no end. Life exists in the timeless dimension of the eternal now. This is something to be meditated upon, laughed about, which is why we should begin the so-called New Year with laughter.
[size=4][blue][size=3][blue] Laughter is one of the most divine experiences, but very few people really laugh. Their laughter is shallow. Either it is just intellectual or just a facade or just a formality or just a mannerism, but it is never total.
If a man can laugh totally, wholeheartedly, not holding anything back at all, in that very moment something tremendous can happen - because laughter, when it is total, is absolutely egoless and that is the only condition in which to know god, to be egoless.
There are many ways to be egoless but laughter is the most beautiful way. Laughter needs no talent. In fact children laugh more beautifully more totally. As they grow up, their laughter becomes shallow; they start holding back, they start thinking whether to laugh or not to laugh, or whether it is right in this situation to laugh.
Learn the laughter of small children again laugh consciously and totally - and not only at others, at yourself too. One should never miss an opportunity to laugh. Laughter is prayer.[/center]
