you can see it in the dali lama too. he is very funny and often giggles for no apparent reason.

i guess to be enlightened means that you lighten up.

speaking of lightening up. i just heard a true story yesterday about my friend's sister and her husband. she was trying and trying for years to get pregnant and could not. she was very frustrated and depressed about it for a long time and she finally decided to get artificially inseminated. my friend said one month after she had her first child she got pregnant naturally. i think it is because the fear of not having one is gone, she lightened up, and allowed it to happen.

her are some dali lama jokes to tickle your funny bone:

the dali lama is in new york visiting the un. goes up to a hot dog vendor and says, "make me one with everything."

the hot dog vendor said "that will be $2.50" and the dalai lama handed him a five.

and waited.

the dalia lama said "hey where's my change?"

the hot dog vendor said "change must come from within" one night, a twin-engine puddle jumper was flying somewhere above new jersey. there were five people on board: the pilot, michael jordan, bill gates, the dali lama, and a hippie.

suddenly, an illegal oxygen generator exploded loudly in the luggage compartment, and the passenger cabin began to fill with smoke.

the cockpit door opened, and the pilot burst into the compartment. "gentlemen," he began, "i have good news and bad news. the bad news is that we`re about to crash. the good news is that there are four parachutes, and i have one of them!"

with that, the pilot threw open the door and jumped from the plane.

michael jordan was on his feet in a flash. "gentlemen," he said, "i am the world`s greatest athlete and i should have a parachute!" with these words, he grabbed one of the remaining parachutes, and hurtled through the door and into the night.

bill gates rose and said, "gentlemen, i am the world`s smartest man. the world needs smart men. i think the world`s smartest man should have a parachute, too." he grabbed one, and out he jumped.

the dali lama and the hippie looked at one another. finally, the dali lama spoke. "my son," he said, "i have lived a satisfying life and have known the bliss of true enlightenment. you have your life ahead of you; you take a parachute, and i will go down with the plane."

the hippie smiled slowly and said, "hey, don`t worry, your holiness. the world`s smartest man just jumped out wearing my backpack."
