Hello everyone;
It's been a few times that I wake up in the very early morning with a loud laugh.I'm not speaking about any laugh,I mean a really loud laugh that not only wakes me up but wakes my family as well.
This thing never happened before started meditation.I don't laugh that way in life.
Before my family always doubted I'm weird,now they don't doubt anymore…they are sure I'm weird!I keep hearing that all the time 
It doesn't really matter!I find it funny and laugh about it but I wonder if anyone among AYP members had similar experience.Is it a common thing?
Love;
Delara |

hello delara
there is a saying.... laughter is the best medicene,,,,,in spiritual terms im sure you couldnt agree more that this saying is potent in seeing the funny side of reality, houmour is our most natural STATE OF BEING,
it is a good thing to laugh, who said a spiritual path was a serious one,,, such a lifes path is fraught with dangers but allways a smile, allways a laugh,,,, a quick dusting and off you go again
i know the laughter you speak of, its like a drunken laughter, the giggles, it is like the light within is intoxicating, it is healing, refreshing food for the soul from which you will never thirst or hunger,
and while others may think you weired,... remember this,,,, you are in a NATURAL state of being when you laugh, that BEING is our only true state, take others comments as a compliment |

Don't worry dear Delara, this form of laugh happens with me also... Most of the time during daily activity but rarely when waking up. It's a form of purification IMO and it can be controlled via awareness and gentle persuasion. But of course it's best not to control it so much because cz it's really fun at least according to my own experience.
Love,
Ananda |

U r rite David,I can't agree more.It feels like part of me laughs at it all ups n downs in life...happy moments n suffering without my interference.

it does indeed happen during the day also as a spontaneous laugh or smile.
Not worried,just felt like knowing if it happens with others.
Thank you both David n Ananda for ur comments.

Welcome to the club, Delara
It happens 2 me 2. As the meditation works on deeper and deeper layers of the mind, the subconscious automatically lets go of its old hangups, one by one. IMO., laughter is a strong indication of exactly that, and feels very liberating. Enjoy! |
