Books and articles abound the shelves and internet on how to bring joy at work, offering recommendations on how office workers can find happiness and how they can be encouraged to bring joy and energy to their work which in turn will reap profits. Joy at work goes beyond the standard business tale.‘All work and no play make Jake a dull boy’ is a proverb most of us have heard of. Is work and joy separate? Osho says, work itself is joy. “If you work without love, you are working like a slave. When you work with love, you work like an emperor... |

It is worth considering whether Meera's tanpoora is the handiwork of work addicts or of those who take celebration as a way of life. Work-addicts don't produce a tanpoora, they produce a spade.

Krishna does not take life as work, as duty; he takes it as a celebration, a festivity. Life is really a great feast, a blissful festivity.

Narada, a messenger between earth and heaven, a mythological figure, was going to heaven. He is just like a postman; he goes up and down continuously, bringing messages from above, bringing messages from down. He continues his work. He was going to heaven and just he passed one very, very old monk sitting under a tree with his mala...

The pagans are far closer to existence than anybody else. The pagans are the people who worship nature, trees, mountains, oceans, rivers, stars. The pagans are those who accept this whole that surrounds you as divine. They are far closer to me than these so-called religious people.

| Laugh Your Way to God |
 Cultivated morality arouses only two alternatives: one is to go mad -- if the person is sincere he will go mad -- the other alternative is that he will be a hypocrite. And naturally people choose to be hypocrites rather than going mad, and I cannot condemn them either... |
