received by the women who attended. When I told people about your workshop, a

workshop came by and smiled, breaking into laughter as they remembered your

Laugh
so that your whole body, your whole being becomes involved, and suddenly, there
will be a glimpse. For the moment, the past disappears, the future
disappears, the ego disappears, everything disappears – there is only
laughter.
