  Let us in on the joke
I was thinking back to the Art of Living meeting that I went to two weeks ago, as well as some picutres that I've been seeing on the Internet. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar is almost always flashing a mischievous smile -- a beaming, joyful grin as if he already knew the punch line of the Universal Joke. His playfulness in front of the crowd, photographers or TV cameras also has another sense -- he's aware that he may appear weird or awkward (I found a picture of him with a red Santa's elf hat) and he doesn't care -- life is just one long lark -- a kind of cosmic vacation so why not enjoy every minute, no matter what's happening.

I thrive when exploring new realms of knowledge and experience.

"The eye through which I see God is the same eye through which God sees me; my eye and God's eye are one eye. One seeing, one knowing, one love."
         — Meister Eckhart

"Life is like a ten-speed bicycle. Most of us have gears we never use."
         — Charles Schultz

"You become a writer by writing. It is a yoga."
         — R.K. Narayan, Indian writer

Men cannot see their reflection in running water, but only in still water.
        — Chuang Tzu, philosopher (c. 4th century BCE)

Many people hear voices when no-one is there. Some of them are called mad and are shut up in rooms where they stare at the walls all day. Others are called writers and they do pretty much the same thing.
         —Margaret Chittenden
