Know The Reality of This World
Only the wise can understand
A man would frequently visit a nearby saint to learn and discuss wise thoughts.
One day, during the session, the saint said, “Looking after the family and carrying on the responsibility is our prime duty."
But one should not be too obsessed with it. Together with his family, each man should devote equal or even more time to the service of God.
But the man could not agree with the saint…
He claimed that his family loves him infinitely and cannot live without him.
The disagreement elevated until a decision to hold a trial.
Later, the man headed straight to his house. In the lobby, he stabbed himself with a dummy knife and acted dead on the floor.
His family gathered in agony, crying and yelling.
At that very moment, the saint visited his house.
When he saw the man dead laying on the floor, he claimed he could save the man if they helped him.
The saint requested a glass of water from his wife.
With hope in her eyes, she brought him some water. Holding the glass, he recited some mantras.
