Some Cosmic Humour
Laughing out loud does not happen often in my meditation but it did happen a few days ago.
Part of my daily routine is to meditate for an hour in the morning.
Like swimming in the sea the experience changes day by day. Sometimes I am fortunate and I catch a warm oceanic wave. My body and mind melt into a soft flow. My consciousness transcends feelings, emotions and thoughts, and I float in a dimension that is very silken and expansive.
So I was in that state the other day and I followed the guidance of one of the oldest known prayers The Gayatri. I opened my awareness to the being who is the essence of our Sun.
Opening to that dimension I became aware of several beings. Each one was like a cloud of coloured gas. There was a core and a radiance that expanded to several hundred metres.
These beings were human. But they had transcended and were liberated from the cycles of incarnation. Their auras were full of love, wisdom and compassion. Also they had chosen to stay connected to Earth and to humanity, to help us all along the spiritual path.
It was deeply reassuring, healing and encouraging to feel their presence.
And then I noticed a few more of these beings who had a different ambience. Their lighting and colours were different. They were dancing and twirling. Their vibration was still, however, full of love.
Who are you? I enquired.
We are the ones who are not engaged with humanity.
We seek to move on from our attachment to Earth to wider cosmic fields.
We are the wild sadhus, the crazy spiritual seekers.
We are the ones who disappear into mountains, caves and deserts — and in that wild solitude liberate ourselves.
Their attitude and resonance were filled with humour, compassion, giggles and a wild freedom.
Untamed mystics.

It is said that the most frequently received piece of inner guidance is: Lighten up.
I suppose God in essence is a laughing buddha. Maybe the thing to do is to go to the other dimension, rest up a while, play and laugh, be wild. Then you will be asked at certain times what you want to do. To stay, go back down and help others, or whatever. Any decision is right. You could relive a life down there or help out in a guardian-like angel form. In any case stay lite and light. Live and laugh.
Thanks so much for that, William,
I love the picture of disembodied crazy spiritual seekers oozing humour, compassion & giggles in an abandoned sort of way.
It reminded me of what my guides had often reminded me of, when I’ll listen, of the importance of Play, and that this can come so naturally – when I let go.
These untamed mystics seem to have play down pretty much, too. Note to self – plan to be more spontaneous! 😉
Hugs+Love, All. Stay well & giddy! David xo
Thank you William, that’s a lovely post x
Blessings, William, Thank you for sharing! I was one of those wild yogis who lived in the “beyond” and who did not want to come back to earth. However, much to my surprise, one day two ascended masters came to visit and asked me to come back. When I saw the suffering of humanity I had no other choice.
Thank you for sharing that – so uplifting.
The ‘lighten up’ comment came at just the right moment for me 🙂
Hi William, This is brilliant, and couldn’t come into my life at a better time, thank you very much. I wish everyone more light, lightness of heart and laughter. And remember, each week is now adding 7 minutes of daylight to our existence here on the Northern hemisphere of this crazy and wonderful planet. Lots of love!
Loved this! One of the waves I am receiving at the moment is to feel a sense of lightheartedness in everything I do – it is heartwarming to read of it coming from another angle, and made me giggle too. It is usually the elementals who make me giggle, this is delightful.
Thank you
Hilary
Hi William as I was reading I was laughing too. It was reassuring to hear that there are spiritual guides that are a bit naughty, giggling and having fun.
All my love, a follower who enjoys the path to freedom xx
