Two pieces of Humor/Jokes with good LIFE Lessons

1. Wisdom
From A
Laugh 101
Ten Feet Behind
A Western female journalist had done a
study and story on gender roles in a
particular kingdom several years before a
major war engulfed the kingdom. She was
not happy to note that the women in this
kingdom, by custom or tradition, would
walk about ten feet behind their husbands.
Recently, this same Western journalist
returned to the same kingdom and she was
pleased to observe that now the men
would walk several yards behind their
wives. She approached one of the women
and said to her, “Why, this is real progress
… marvelous! What has caused women
here to achieve this reversal of gender
roles?”
“Land mines,” the woman softly replied.
Reflection
How often have we changed our stand,
view or principles to suit our selfish ends?

2. Wisdom From
A Laugh 102
Meditation
A meditation teacher walked around to check on a group
of meditators meditating. He noticed that a meditator was
alternately pressing his nostrils, right and then left and
then right and so on. The teacher was indeed very puzzled.
After the meditation session was over, the teacher called up
the meditator who had been meditating in a strange way.
Teacher : Why were you meditating in a strange way …
pressing your nostrils one at a time?
Meditator : Sir, I was merely following your instructions.
You said,
‘Breathing in …one nose. Breathing out …one nose.’
The teacher was shocked. He had instructed,
‘Breathing in …one knows,
breathing out …one knows.’
Reflection
Be careful! So many things in our life go wrong
because we misinterpret instructions. When in
doubt, we must seek clarification from the wise
ones ... people who know and have realized the
Path to happiness, peace and freedom.
