There was a millionaire who was
bothered by severe eye pain. He consulted so many physicians and was getting
his treatment done. He did not stop consulting galaxy of medical experts; he
consumed heavy loads of drugs and underwent hundreds of injections.
But the ache persisted with great
vigour than before. At last a monk who has supposed to be an expert in
treating such patients was called for by the millionaire. The monk
understood his problem and said that for sometime he should concentrate only on
green colours and not to fall his eyes on any other colours.
The millionaire got together a group
of painters and purchased barrels of green colour and directed that every
object his eye was likely to fall to be painted in green colour just as the
monk had directed.
When the monk came to visit him
after few days, the millionaire's servants ran with buckets of
green paints and poured on him since he was in red dress, lest their master not
see any other colour and his eye ache would come back.
Hearing this monk laughed said
"If only you had purchased a pair of green spectacles, worth just a few
rupees, you could have saved these walls and trees and pots and all other
articles and also could have saved a large share of his fortune. You cannot
paint the world green."
Let us change our vision and the
world will appear accordingly. It is foolish to shape the world, let us
shape ourselves first. Lets change our vision!!
