Aptavani-4
Dadashri: That is called mukta hasya.
Questioner: We have encountered circumstances to attain mukta hasya, so how come it has been obstructed?
Dadashri: It has not happened, because there are all kinds of 'ghosts' within you. No one other than a liberated man can remove them for you. The liberated One (mukta Purush) can create within you such a mukta hasya through his own mukta hasya. A person has all kinds of insistence (khench) that lie within him, and that is why he does not cry at the time of crying and laugh at the time of laughing.
What creates laughter? Why does this elderly gentleman laugh so much? It is because of his innocence (nirdoshata; faultlessness) and because he is sarad (flexible; straightforward). Sarad means flexible. It means that he will bend (adjust) in whatever direction you want him to, just like gold (malleable). You can mold him anyway you want to, within an hour.
Questioner: So does that mean that as faultlessness increases, so will mukta hasya?
Dadashri: Yes, it is the attribute of faultlessness (nirdoshata). Today, when people with etiquette, laugh at the dinner table, it is considered a polished laugh. It is a new kind of thing altogether, sort of weird and artificial. It is better to be quiet than to have a fake laughter. It is better to speak less, than to speak artificially.
Since this man has been here, he has been experiencing a new sort of bliss that he has not felt before. Only he and I know this. That is because he is flexible (sarad) and he experiences bliss just from my darshan.
The Liberated Laughter of the Liberated Purush
The Gnani Purush is in a constant state of liberation, and because of that, others become free from within. 'Our' mind
