What happen then? Laughter! Laughter burbles out in your life. It may be that you’ve
touched gentleness, eternal, unchanged gentleness, but the spring seems always to come
out in laughter. And the charm and joy of the laughter protects the gentleness that you’ve
found, because someone who is laughing touches everyone, but cannot be touched………
And as the laughter strengthens, two things happen. First comes the tendency to touch the
value in others, because innocence reaches the part in people that society teaches them to
hide. Secondly the quality inside grows. The spring becomes a river and starts to flow
through life in a more open and forceful way. So from a deep private discovery, it
becomes part of your living. Not only that, it becomes a resource for others. You can just
sit beside a river and without it doing anything; you get in touch with how you really are
and where you are going. Perhaps that was what the scriptures meant when they told the
story of Siddhartha……………….
Hope you have heard of Siddhartha the prince who rose to become the
BUDDHA.
