...buddha laugh ...

The Buddha believes - "when you realize how perfect everything is you will tilt your head back and laugh at the sky ..."
"We don't laugh because we're happy, we're happy because we laugh." - as written by William James

For many reasons, I will always remain grateful for having met a beautiful person and teacher named Jackie. It was back in the days that I attended her Pranic Healing teachings that I was first introduced to the "Buddha laugh" and its meaningful purpose regarding the world of energy. To those of you whom are not familar with this concept, let me assure you it is definitely worth the effort in trying. What is required is simply this: stand with your head tilted back, tongue out in front of you, hands by your side or whatever is comfortable. Once this is done and you are in position, you simply begin to laugh out loud .... right from the very core of your belly! Sound crazy, absolutely but well worth the experience. Although in the beginning you may be forcing the laugh, you will soon be laughing on your own - it does not take much time for this occurance. The benefit of this exercise is plentiful. Not only does it aid in the release of pent up energy - it fills the being with an overwhelming sense of joy and peace! Something to try with a few friends or better yet a room full of strangers. It is almost certain that once the buddha leaves his mark - ease and contentment will follow ..... hears to wishing all of you a day filled with laughter - apachebluemoon
