If you can start the day without caffeine,
If you can get going without pep pills,
If you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains.
If you can resist complaining and boring people with you troubles,
If you can eat the same food everyday and be grateful for it,
If you can understand when your loved ones are too busy to give you any time,
If you can overlook it when those you love take it out on you when,
through no faults of yours, something goes wrong, If you can take criticism and blame without resentment,
If you can ignore a friend´s limited education and never correct him,
If you can resist treating a rich friend better than a poor friend,
If you can face the world without lies and deceit,
If you can conquer tension without medical help,
If you can relax without liqour,
If you can sleep without the aid of drugs,
If you can say honestly that deep in your heart you have no prejudice against creed, color, religion or politics,
Then, my friend you are… no, not a perfect Yogi or a highly evolved Soul… you are
ALMOST AS GOOD AS YOUR DOG!
P.S: I found this brilliant joke somewhere online and burst out laughing! 🙂 🙂 🙂
That is an exellent example how we far we, humans, have evolved…thanks to our great Egos…
LOVE, axinia

Good One 🙂
Actually I was expecting something serious 😉
me too…
May be we should not be that serious about our spiritual ascent, otherwise we can get too hard…
lol 🙂
I would say dogs are good yogis!
;))
Just now during dinner I was thinking of this movie (Jojo la frite …http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0357813/). It had exactly the same theme as in this ‘joke’.
A good joke/comedy always makes you laugh and then contemplate.
Nice post Axinia, thanks.
Leo, you made it a point 🙂
Interestingly, the perfect human being – as the gist of this joke is – will be a perfect yogi. That is a fresh view, for I am not sure that people see yogis as the ultimate stage of human evolution…
ahahaah the moral is great! radha
😀
Love it!
Too good 😛
