Laughter is spiritual health. And laughter is very unburdening. While you laugh, you can put your mind aside very easily. For a man who cannot laugh the doors of the buddha are closed. To me, laughter is one of the greatest values. No religion has ever thought about it. They have always been insisting on seriousness, and because of their insistence the whole world is psychologically sick. Everybody knows from his own experience that after laughter, good laughter, a belly laugh, you almost feel that …

Questioner: What do you mean by love? Jiddu Krishnamurti : Love is the unknowable. It can be realized only when the known is understood and transcended. Only when the mind is free of the known, then only there will be love. So, we must approach love negatively and not positively. What is love to most of us? With us, when we love, in it there is possessiveness, dominance, or subservience. From this possession arises jealousy and fear of loss, and we legalize this possessive instinct. From possessiveness …

All night, a man called “Allah” Until his lips were bleeding. Then the Devil said, “Hey ! Mr Gullible ! How come you’ve been calling all night and never once heard Allah say, “Here, I am” ? You call out so earnestly and, in reply, what ? I’ll tell you what. Nothing ! The man suddenly felt empty and abandoned. Depressed, he threw himself on the ground and fell into a deep sleep.

But we find ways...
We find ways to forget the illusion for a moment, to feel again... to experience again.
Painting, watching, listening, writing, singing, smelling, tasting, warming, cooling, hugging, kissing, loving, breathing...

Whatever works.

Her perception
is like
the ocean.

It's glistening
little
specks of light.

It's listening
closely
to the heart.

I give you my heart.
It's as genuine
and just as fragile
as yours...

I can see a bird.
She's Dancing
on the windowsill
to my drum.

In the spur of the moment is where I wanna stay. Right now is the one time. Never was yesterday. Why wait until later? It's really far away... We got you a present. And we are living here. Endless variations even closer than near. Just as they all have said, right here is where it is. Not going anywhere. Right here is where it is. We got you a present. It's all that ever was and it's all that will be. Bees are sounding their buzz... Listening you are free. Homeless you're finally... In the spur of the …

 Peace, This's my first offering in what will be a series of free lessons about music, chanting, spirituality, life etc.  I'm moved to discuss, because I feel these subjects have lots of parrallels throughout the universe and life, and they're so much fun to explore!  I'm gonna try to focus on the important and more infrequently discussed things most of the time and hope some people will enjoy these writings.  Language is limited.  And since to me these topics are very deep, …
