KALIDASA & VILLAGE WOMAN
During one of his travels, Kalidasa felt very thirsty and looked around for water. He saw a woman drawing water from a well. He went up to her and asked her for w---r.
She agreed to give him water, but asked him, “Who are you? Introduce yo----lf.”
Kalidasa “I am a tra----er.”
But his lady replied, “In this world there are only 2 travellers – the Sun and the Moon. Both Rise and Set every day and keep travelling perp----lly.”
Kalidasa: “Alright then, I am a guest.”
The lady promptly replied, “In this world there are only 2 guests – Youth and Wealth … both are temporary and hence can only be called as gu---s.”
Kalidasa said, “I am a Tolerant person (sahansheel vyakti).”
Now the lady replied, “In this world only 2 truly know the meaning of Tolerance – Bhoomi (Earth) and ---e. ”
Now Kalidasa was completely perplexed. He said, “Fine. I am a stubborn p----n (hatavaadi).”
The lady smiled and said, “There are only 2 truly stubborn personalities – our nails and our hair. We keep cutting them non-stop, but they continue to g---”
Kalidasa, “I am a fool”.
Now the lady gave a wide smile and said, “There are only 2 kinds of fools in this world – a King who rules without having any capability or knowledge & a Minister who is a sycophant to such a King and lavishes praises on such a useless ----.”
Kalidasa realised that he had been outsmarted. He fell at the feet Mata Saraswati – the Goddess of Learning and Wi---m.
She said, “Kalidasa, you are wise. But only if you know yourself do you become a Manushya (human being). A person without any awareness of self has not reached the pinnacle of being a H---n.”
