I have heard the story of three Chinese mystics. No one knows their names, and no one has ever saputi. They were known simply as "The three saints who laugh," because they did not do anything but laugh! And just laughed.
These three characters were really nice people: merry, had the belly trembled with laughter. And it was something contagious: seeing, others burst out laughing. In short, the entire market place laughing ... and only a moment before the place was gray and off, everybody thought only about money. Then suddenly, the presence of those three crazy atmosphere changed completely. Now everyone had forgotten that they were there to buy and sell. No one was more eager: For a moment he opened up a new world.
traveled throughout China, from country to country, from village to village, just helping people to laugh. With them, all those sad, angry, greedy and jealous, and starts to laugh. Many perceived that key ... can make you!
One day, in a village, it happened that one of the three died. The people came running out, thinking, "Now will be in difficulty. We want to see how are they going to laugh. Their friend is dead, will weep! "
But when they reached the place where they were, they saw that the two remaining essays danced, laughed and celebrated death.
The villagers said: "This is too much! When a man dies, it is profane to laugh and dance. "
But the wise answered, "All my life we \u200b\u200blaughed with him. How could we say goodbye for the last time any different? We need to laugh, enjoy this moment, we must celebrate. This is the only possible farewell to a man who rice all my life. And we do not see dead can die as a laugh, how can life die? "
The body was to be cremated and people said:" We will make a bathroom, as prescribed in the ritual. " But the two sages said, "No, our friend said, 'Do not follow any ritual and cambiatemi and do not wash my clothes. Put me on the pyre just as they are and give them fire '. So we have to respect his instructions. "
And suddenly something spectacular happened. When the body was burned, the old man made his last joke he had hidden under his clothes so many fireworks, and suddenly was a great party! The whole village laughed. And those two crazy dancing began, and the whole village began to dance with them.
was no longer a death, was a new life.
