After
roaming for days and months, a wise man decided to rest in a village for a few
days. He thought to spend some days there and then he’ll continue his journey.
Word spread like fire in the village about the arrival of such an extraordinary
man. The local villagers referred to him as The Holy Man.
A man from
the village decided to visit him and seek some of his wisdom. The only problem
was that The Holy Man lived on top of a distant mountain away from the hustle
of the village. But the man was determined to visit The Holy Man anyway.
When he
arrived at the house, he saw an old servant inside who greeted him gladly. Man
said, “I would like to meet The Holy Man. Heard a lot about his wisdom.”
Servant said “Sure”, and took him inside.
In no time
the man was led to the back of the house and he found himself standing outside
the house. He was shocked and a bit confused too. On one side he was
anticipating to meet The Holy Man and here he is standing outside the house
with no sign of any man other than the servant himself. He turned and said
furiously to the servant, “I wanted to meet The Holy Man! Why did you bring me
in the backyard of the house? Where is He?”
The servant
smiled and replied “You already have. Everyone you met today on the way here is
a wise holy spirit. They all hold supreme holiness within them. No matter how
plain and insignificant they might look, see each of them as a wise Holy Man.
If you do this, then whatever problem you brought here today (with the intention
of getting it solved) will be solved .”
