Morning Raga

Ho! Ho! Ho! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ho! Ho! Ho! Ha! Ha! Ha!

This is one common reverberation which you listens when you enter to few parks in Bangalore, I was not exception. I had been to morning walk with my MOTHER today, though the reason was to take her to walk but the intention was to scrutinize few girls who will be strolling around there.

You might be now thinking how much spoiled brat I must be..!!! Hold on, this was an autonomy given by my parents to get myself married soon. Now you can envisage what I was doing there. I was looking at few girls who can take good care of me and my parents..!!! Now I can feel that your impression on me is slightly changing.

Let’s come to main topic, THE REVERBERATION.

The park I am in at this fiendishly early hour of the morning is anything but quiet and peaceful. The reason is that I am surrounded by well dressed professionals in expensive labeled clothing and beautiful silk saris and trouser suits going absolutely, shouting loud.

They the have fallen under the spell of one of the most charismatic coach. I don’t know his name but for his followers he has unlocked the secret of never ending happiness. His formula is simple. When we are happy we laugh. So if we laugh it will make us happy.

It sounds simple and I entered their world with deep cynicisms. On greeting me, as I approached, he nearly shook my hand but then stuck his fingers up his nose shouted like a Zulu, "Ho! Ho! Ho! Ha! Ha! Ha!"

This had him in convulsion and had me chuckling at his silliness before I knew what I was doing. "You are most welcome Mr., Join me and my friends and become the happiest man in the world!" His theories are actually firmly based in yogic medicine. Laughter therapy or "Hasya Yoga" which has been proven to stimulate the mind and the body. According to the giggling guru it also repairs the spirit.

As the conversation continued, he started to explain the importance of morning walk. A morning walk is a rewarding experience. In the morning, Nature is at her best. The dewdrops on the green grass and leaves of plants look like pearls. The flowers laden with dew merrily wave their heads and spread their fragrance and colors everywhere. The birds sing cheerfully. An early walker feasts his eyes and ears on such sights and sounds.

And about the laughter therapy, he elucidates how this will help to the mankind. But few points which caught my attention are, laughter adds spice to life; it is to life what salt is to a hard-boiled egg, pepper to chicken kebab and pickles to whiskey..!!! It also develops your sense of humor and you will find you are more productive, a better communicator, and a superior team player. Everyone loves someone who can make them laugh. The more you share your sense of humor, the more friends (Girls) you will have.

The good Doctor has a point.

Ho! Ho! Ho! Ha! Ha! Ha!
