Unconditioned Posted October 27, 2008 i was curious as to what some of you thought about how humor is a part of the tao? Ever try to explain a joke? Sort of loses the effect. But when everyone 'gets it' we all laugh spontaneously without needing to explain. Examining laughter and humor can lead to some insights in my opinion/experience =) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wuliheron Posted October 29, 2008 i was curious as to what some of you thought about how humor is a part of the tao? Humor is widely considered the most difficult of the performing arts and the most difficult to define. However, one thing just about everyone agrees on is that humor involves an element of surprise in the form of a punchline. Each moment of existence is subtly novel, unique.a Therefore you could say that each moment of life is a punchline, but a subtle one. Instead of a belly laugh, it inspires a more serene smile.
