Where has laughter gone from our lives?
Day to day, moment to moment we do multiple tasks at the same time without awareness of them. We hope, pray, feel, hold grudges, hate, cry, greive, repent, feel guilty, feel sad, lustful, desire, plead ...The neverending list of muti-tasking goes on and on.
We hardly notice it.
We lament about how we are not achieving what we want the most in life. We never ponder on what we actually need in life. That's another topic but out lamenting makes people mock at us.
Those who mock, pass satrairical remarks are themselves drowned in the deeps of mercy, guilt and same lamenting. They try to laugh but it's fake.
We try to laugh, give away our anger but we fail. We try to laugh at jokes but can't help making a remark about it. Something has curbed it.
We can do everything possible on the list to make us depressed and sad. Even if there is nothing, we can make ourselves cry...
Why?
Why not make ourselves laugh for no reason at all for Now??
So let us laugh. Let us laugh at all the foolishness. All the stupid things we do everyday.
Let us imagine ourselves wearing a makeup of a clown or some cartoon character. Let us laugh at ourselves. Our hypocricy, our becharapan, our sense and sesibilities, our prejudices and all that years of greif ...
Let us laugh for 5 mins even if we don't have any reson to laugh at all.
You will notice the things lighten up and you carry your day with smile.

Saakshi: Witnessing
Buddha has discussed about Saakshi Bhaav, the Witnessing Attitude. It is of prime importance in a spiritual person's life. This is a step of great determination. This is a door to awaken many dormant possibilities. Saakshi is the dual arrowed consciousness.
Being available to this witnessing, dual arrowed consciousness lead to the knowing of existing and existant. This tell you that there is more to achieve. It constantly reminds you of a greater witnessing where witnesse and witness both disappear. All that remains is "Amness".
This further lead to Tathata. The final destination in a seeker life.
The blooming of Tathata is the blooming of lotus. The journey ends where it began. But it continues. The end becomes life. Tathata is "Isness". Tathata is "Total Acceptence". This acceptance is total because you accept gracefully and graciously whatever happens in the life. You become he event itself. You leave the laws of Karma behind. That is what Shree Bhagwat Geeta also says. When you become the "Karma" itself, you stop accumulating the Karmas and all that was there is balanced.
To achieve the state of "Total acceptance" on has to go through "Total awareness". That is the path.
