The Dalai Lama On Why I Laugh, by The Dalai Lama

The Dalai Lama On Why I Laugh, by The Dalai Lama



(Read the article, then the poem)



Laughter as spiritual practice:

The Dalai Lama is a holy fool,

Andrew Weil laughs, too--of course Oprah.

Even the new Pope is on on the joke--

Those who smile when their heart is breaking inherit the Earth--

What's left of it--

And the job of making the world live up to laughter.

Hope is jolly, holy folly~

Laughter leapt lovingly out of Pandora's box.
