Guest guest Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 Dear Sai Devotees, In this week's eChat, we will read about a method used by a Guru to teach detachment to his disciple........ --------------------- The guru sat in meditation on the riverbank when a disciple bent down to place two enormous pearls at his feet, a token of reverence and devotion.The guru opened his eyes, lifted one of the pearls, and held it so carelessly that it slipped out of his hand and rolled down the bank into the river.The horrified disciple plunged in after it, searched for it feverishly again and again till late evening - with no luck.Finally, all wet and exhausted, he woke the guru up from his meditation: "You saw where it fell? Show me the spot so I can get it back for you."The guru lifted the other pearl, threw it into the river, and said, "Right there!" ---------------- May He shower the wisdom on us so we can learn detachment! OM SAI RAM! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
