““Don’t complain. Come play!”

 – Swami Beyondananda



Watch Swami's Tour Announcement Here

Dear Friends, Fans, and Co-Hearts:

I am inviting you to help me bring love and laughter to a world in need of both.

In these times of great polarization, maybe side-splitting laughter can help us heal the split between the sides. As I’ve said many times before, laughing in the face our “shituation” isn’t denial. It’s radical acceptance. When we restore joy, we restore hope and courage.

So … here are three chances to come laugh with the Swami – or at him, he doesn’t care. Anything to raise the laugh force on the planet …

Swami Beyondananda Wanted for Questioning –

A Live Zoom Event Thursday, July 30th

The first opportunity is open to anybody anywhere. On Thursday, July 30^th our friends at the Caritas Consciousness Center is sponsoring an online Zoom event, Swami Beyondananda Wanted For Questioning, 4:30-6:30 pm PT / 7:30 – 9:30 pm ET. Cost is “jest” $15, $10 for Caritas members. Please go here to register. https://www.caritascenter.org/events/swami-beyondananda-wanted-for-questioning-with-steve-bhaerman.html

Have Pun, Will Travel

Now Swami and Steve Can Be VIRTUALLY Anywhere

If you want to bring love, laughter and cosmic comic insight to YOUR community, we invite you to invite the Swami to perform at a live event, a Zoom event for your organization, or a Zoom or live living room event for your friends!  

We’re booking Zoom events for 2026 right now, and LIVE events for the West Coast this fall, and anywhere else in 2027. We’re also excited about doing “fun-raisers” for worthy causes, where we feed two or more birds with one scone – you get to support a valued organization or project … you support the Swami …and you get to leave the audience laughing, and smiling.

Just reply to this email and we'll explore the possibilities.

As our beloved friend Caroline Casey would say, “co-operators are standing by.”

So …don’t complain … come play!

May you wake up laughing and leave laughter in your wake …

And may the FARCE be with you!

Steve, Swami, Trudy and Annette – the Wake Up Laughing Team
