36. Two lessons from a story
The ancient King Harishchandra is known to have lived his whole life based on truthfulness and being in integrity with his word. The story of Harishchandra says that at one point he even sold his wife and children in order not to compromise his integrity.
Once, in a village, a preacher was narrating the story of Harishchandra. After the narration he asked a man, 'What did you learn from this story?' The man replied, 'I learnt that I should always be truthful, no matter what price I have to pay for it.'
The preacher was happy. Then he asked another man, 'What did you learn?' The second man said, 'I learnt that in an emergency, you can even sell your wife, nothing wrong!'
Understand you can learn two very different things from the same story! You never experience Life as IT is, but as YOU are - because each of you sees the whole Life through the filter of your own patterns and incompletions.
