Once a Yogi was on
the way of his meditating cave and he passed via a river. He was bit busy and
have to reach to destination faster. To his amazed, he found a fisher man
fishing the fish while crossing bridge. In an action of fisher man, he chased
an insect attracting over his eyes by waving his hand up and down. It was a
frequent action that a Yogi noticed as he watch fisher man from the bridge.
Yogi thought Fisher man was calling him to come down when fisher man wave his
hand for chasing insects. Yogi said himself “why he is calling me, when I am so
busy?” Then he decided to go near fisher man.
No sooner did the
Yogi reached near Fisher man, he asked, “Why you called me?” To his surprised
and annoyed, fisher man answered “I didn’t called you”. After a fisher man
explanation, Yogi got that he wasn’t called and it was his mistake.
Before he leave the
spot with blush, he got a question to ask to Fisher man. “Why you are fishing
and killing fishes? They have not harm you. They also have life similar as ours”. And Fisher man replied, “You will never know
how much fish had harm us. They don’t even think of human being drinking this
water (river) and they pass urine and stool (shit) in the water itself. So water
become dirty. So I am fishing”.
Yogi has no reply for
his answer and went off.
Now to the reader,
what would you give a Fisher man a reply if you were a Yogi at that time?
N.B Story I heard from one of my teacher.
if i were a yogi,i would have replied ,"everything happens fr concrete reason"...
ReplyDeleteIf i were Yogi, i would say nothing but one thing i would convince him that we are "birth to death".
