Buddha explained it clearly, all Jhannas and all arupas, even the state of nibbana. In other believes it is religious, but in his teachings it is called having a good time. So it is supposed to be a good time.

graceful way of teaching meditation practice a fun rather than a serious assignment

[@twimhindiandmarathi]

Goenkaji has many assistant teachers and all of them do not have same attitude towards smiling. Some of them do approve relaxing and smiling

Please consider to start breathing through your nose if possible. Breathing through the nose has many advantages compared to mouth breathing. Love and thanks for your teachings

احذروا من هذا الرجل وممن كان مثله أصحاب التنمية والجذب والطاقة والتأمل والهالة وتطوير الذات والتنوير والتأمل والإرتداد والوعي والرخاء والمال والوفرة وتوام الشعلة والسقوط النجمي والبعد الخامس والاستحقاق والكارما والشاكرا واليوغا ، هؤلاء لا يصدقهم ولا يسمعهم إلا المغيبون في متاهات التخريف والتزيف والتحريف ، كفانا الله شرهم كلهم ، عباد الله سلام عليكم من الله ، طبتم وطاب أيامكم واعوامكم .
