Laughter is a purely spontaneous response from the Awakeness. don't believe me, just try to laugh non-spontaneously. even if you are able to 'laugh', it will not be a 'real(ized)' laugh, but a conceptualized, forcef laugh. The Awakeness is (t)here, all the time, you can see it in everyone and everything, but most easily in the freely flowing laugh of a child. Can a prescription of laughter help one Awaken? probably not, but it is as sure a sign as we have that the Awakeness resides within us...all of us. :-) enjoy, clay ps, go ahead, laugh at the silliness of my comments above. it's okay!

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2005 Report Share Posted September 24, 2005 Laughing has nothing to do with awakeness nor with spontaneity. When there happens an onrush, a sudden release of energy it gets neutralized through laughing.
