Laughter comes out of health. It’s an overflowing energy.
A sad child means an ill child, and a laughing old man means
he is still young. Even death cannot make him old, nothing
can make him old. His energy is still flowing and overflowing,
he is always flooded. Laughter is a flooding of energy.
My emphasis is to increase your cheerfulness, your laughter,
because this world is not for the miserable. This world is
not for the people who have become too accustomed to anxiety,
anguish. This world belongs to those who live moment to
moment in utter ecstasy. Cheerfulness, nonseriousness,
a sense of humor to me are very fundamental qualities
of a religious being.
If we can fill the whole earth with laughter, with dancing
and singing — people singing and swinging! — if we can make
the earth a carnival of joy, a festival of lights, we will
have brought for the first time a true sense of religiousness
to the earth.
That’s why children can laugh and their laughter is total.
Their whole body is involved in it — when they laugh you
can see their toes laughing. The whole body, every cell,
every fiber of the body, is laughing and vibrating.
They are so full of health, so vital; everything is flowing.
