keeper of a laughing heart
in keepinga laughing heart,
the elect ones
affect their quality of being.
when you can do that, lo!
you have perfected
the highest art of being already.
become
the keeper
of a laughing heart!
(c) MysticSaint
in far eastern buddhist iconography the archetypal spiritual figure of keeper of a laughing heart is the image of laughing buddha. inside all of us we carry a laughing buddha too. when we become the keeper of a laughing heart, we are already manifesting the laughing buddha within. may your laughing buddha be-come too!

A wonderful poem and post, dear Sadiq bhai :) May our hearts meet one day and laugh the night away :)
Ya Haqq!
What a great way to start the day, to stumble upon not only your laughing words but Neem Karoli Baba on the very first website I happen to visit this morning!
As a fellow devotee of the laughing heart and the spiritual quest, I feel I must mention to you that my spiritual memoir is quite funny, and speaks about my early days encountering Neem Karoli Baba via Ram Dass over 30 years ago. It is called THE 99th MONKEY: A Spiritual Journalist's Misadventures with Gurus, Messiahs, Sex, Psychedelics and Other Consciousness-Raising Adventures, and you can read the prologue here:

Yes-
Whoever grew wise without the sorrows - and in retrospect the humour of it all in the grand scheme of love.It began for me with this simple truth (as all truths are): he who laughs at himself shall never cease to be amused. Sincere thanks for being such an eager participant - afterall sharing the amusements makes it darn more funny :)
