He smiled and laughed and joked with the audience. He was very light-hearted, yet very serious at the same time. </DIV><BR /><DIV>The audience (I'd say there were about 1,000 beings there) called out topics they wished for him to speak on, or ocassionally a whole question. </DIV><BR /><DIV>Someone would shout, “Speak on suicide.” or “Depression,” or “What is God?”.</DIV><BR /><DIV>Many of his answers were single words, and to other things he would launch into a discourse. </DIV><BR /><DIV>To the topic of depression, he said, “Avoid it!” and everyone laughed. But then he said he knew the recipe for depression and he wanted to share it so everyone would know how to spot it and how to avoid it. He said, “To become depressed, simply sit down and think about yourself.” </DIV><BR /><DIV>Ahhh, isn't that great? It was a simple sentence, but there is so much teaching in it. What to do, what not to do, how to cure depression.</DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/83642C2A-405F-482E-8CD4-70F8DFD5A843/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
