Laugh. Laugh as much as you can. Laugh until you cry. Cry until you laugh.

It shows you are thinking and feeling.

Then it will be a natural response; we will cry when it is time to cry, and laugh when we should laugh. Do you understand? We can get angry when necessary; we can be gentle if we have to. We will completely become our own master. Then, no matter what we want to do, it will benefit the world. It is not difficult to attain this stage; all we need to do is to mediate.
