ABOUT THE TECHNIQUE🔗

How often do you laugh?

When we laugh, we are completely unaware that we are performing a great spiritual practice!

Laughter is the most intimate way of connecting with your source. So easy, and so powerful. This is one meditation that every single person has already practised, sometime in life.

Laughter is a tremendous source of energy. Just laugh, and you can feel the energy surge from the source and flood you.

When you laugh, you lose your boundary. You lose your sense of self. You become possessed by the laughter.

And have you noticed? It is impossible to think and laugh at the same time! When you are laughing – suddenly, you experience a moment when thought is no longer possible. You experience nomind!

The laughter I am talking about is not giggling. It is not a sarcastic half-smile, half-laugh. It is a beautiful, expansive laughter, laughter that fills your being and overflows from you.

It is laughter for no reason. Actually you always start laughing for some reason – but once you start, the laughter takes hold of you! Then you laugh simply because you are laughing, that's all. Just the joy of laughing keeps you laughing. You are not even aware of that.

The Japanese monk Hotei was known as the Laughing Buddha. His whole spiritual message could be condensed into a single act – laughing! He would wander from place to place, stand in public places and simply begin to laugh – a roaring, belly laugh.

His whole body would be shaking with laughter. The laughter would rise from him and spread all around in a great wave of energy. And his laughter was so infectious that the whole town would be laughing with him. The whole town would be blessed with laughter. Without techniques, without effort, without even being aware of it, an entire town would glimpse the state of nomind.

What a supreme meditation technique laughter is!
