Meditation brings wisdom, lack of meditation leaves ignorance. Know well what leads you forward and what holds you back.

LOL!
That one genuinely made me laugh!! Nice one, mr. Vaj!
ok.. here's another one... a bit longer though...
a monk was visiting Tokyo for the first time and was awed by the many people and buildings. after some time of walking he noticed he was hungry and found a sidewalk tofu vendor. he ordered a nice dish of rice, soy and tofu and paid with a 10, though the meal only cost 5.
the monk politely asked for his change for the purchase, to which the vendor replied, "silly monk, change comes from within."
:dancingna

One day a man named Nasrettin Hodja a respected and vibrant character in by gone times yelled from his window at his neighbour running across the road so as to not get wet from the rain. "Why are you running from Allahs Blessingn oh neighbour?" (Water is a life giver and we should appreciate its blessing and see it as a gift from Allah) to which the neighbour felt ashamed considering his pious nature and slowed to a walking pace absorbing as much of the falling rain drops and getting drenched as a mark of gratitude to the Allmighty. Time had passed and the neighbour while peering from his window saw Nasrfettin Hodja running across the road while it was raining. The neighbour yelled " Oh noble Shaykh why are running from the blessed raindrops they are gifts from Allah" Nasrettin Hodja replied "oh Neighbour I do realise this, but I am not running , I am trying not to step on these majestic raindrops"
