Guest guest Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 ....and then someone was saying that an Enlightened Leader would not joke or talk that way. May I say an Enlightened Person is likely to talk in many various ways. It will have a flavor of Love behind it--but it will be 'real' whether it's a joke, a beautiful poem---or a loud piercing scream... It will be from said person's soul! The Old Zen Masters would have a grand time joking with each other and playing tricks on each other! Laughter is a Gift from God! :) Stephen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
