There was nothing pompous about the Master. Wild, hilarious laughter prevailed each time he spoke, to the dismay of those who were solemn about their spirituality—themselves.
Said one disillusioned visitor, "The man's a clown!"
"No, no," said a disciple. "You've missed the point: A clown gets you to laugh at him; the Master gets you to laugh at yourself."
Anthony De Mello, SJ
