I Love Stories That Touch My Heart

* Stories may not change us but they atlist give a perception*

"Two Monks"
Two monks were walking in a forest. after some distance they see a woman sitting along the river bank,distressed and asking for help. She wish to cross the river but she can't due to some injury to her foot. First monk lifts her and all three crossed the river.

Second Monk: Brother, what have you done ? we are monks we are not allowed to touch a woman. it's a sin.

First Monk : I left her at River bank only.. You are still carrying her.

That's good start.. it says, the problem is not action, the problem is thinking... we keep thinking about things we don't want to do or need to do..and then miss things which must be done.

Elder monk helped a woman even though not allowed and left..but other monk keeps thinking about her.. and gets annoyed. Thinking too much is problem.
