The Perennial Philosophy — the core and ground of all of the world’s great seeking traditions — points consistently to the concept of, “becoming once again as a little child.”
Childhood attributes include simple wonder and curiosity. And humor. Unadulterated humor. A recognition and reflection of the great cosmic joke within all that we perceive. Sometimes laughing just to laugh.
So, I believe laughing as a child laughs — large, open, truthful — is a critical attribute, symptom and sign of a person who is well along the path to Reality.
