Guest guest Posted April 9, 2007 Report Share Posted April 9, 2007 Om Namah Sivaya This world is like a big fish-net that fishermen drag through the water to make their catch. People are the fish, and they get caught, attracted by all the bright and pretty things in the water, and by the "flies" and baited hooks, often leading them to disaster. Some try to pretend they are not caught, by burrowing into the mud of the lake. Some poke their heads through the holes in the net, but sadly they (their "egos") are too big to go through. Still, these are at least looking for the way out. Only a few jump high out of the net with a big splash, and people say, "Oh, there goes a big one!" These are the clever fish, the sages and saints who find their freedom. But the cleverest fish of all (and they are very rare) are the ones who see the net and avoid it altogether, suspecting that this contraption, the world, is likely to catch them. ------Sri Ramakrishna Sivaya Namah New Mail is the ultimate force in competitive emailing.
