“At the height of laughter the universe is flung into a kaleidoscope of possibilities.”
~Jean Houston
“Laughter is a holy thing. It is as sacred as music and silence and solemnity, maybe more sacred. Laughter is like a prayer, like a bridge over which creatures tiptoe to meet each other. Laughter is like mercy, it heals. When you can laugh at yourself you are free.”
~Ted Loda
Divine Laughter is the sound of grace, singing its celebration of joy, peace and acceptance: It is the song of love. This kind of laughter doesn’t always happen out loud. Sometimes it is the inner smile of our awareness and acceptance of what is. Sometimes it is a stillness inside in response to outer unrest. And sometimes it bubbles forth like a song of enthusiasm, gratitude and celebration of Being. We may laugh inside, in celebration of our infinite immortal Spirit, while we respond compassionately to the world's pain through whatever form of action we are inspired to take. Throughout that compassionate action and service, however, if we remember ourSelf, we laugh inside, allowing Grace to pour through us to enable and strengthen our actions with Love and Peace.
"God and I have become like two giant fat people living in a tiny boat.
We keep bumping into each other and laughing."
~ Hafiz
Laughter is incredibly healing. When we laugh, we are in the present moment, our mind is not engaged in past guilt or future fear. We simply Are. In laughter, the doorway that allows Grace’s ever givingness to be received is wide open. Resistance releases when we laugh. We can not laugh and hold on to fear, anger, resentment, resistance or any other thoughts that hold back Grace. Laughter says Yes! to Grace, Yes to Life!
“Sing because this is a food our starving world needs. Laugh because that is the purest sound.”
~Hafiz
“What is this precious love and laughter budding in our hearts? It is the glorious sound of a soul waking up!”
~Hafiz
“Time spent laughing is time spent with the Gods.”
~Japanese proverb
