THE ADVICE OF THE WISE MEN
THE HIGH MOUNTAIN
There is a high mountain that seems to touch the sky, steep and dangerous are its paths. Not many could be able to climb it, nevertheless, the story goes that in a place close to the top, live some beings full of wisdom. And this was the case of a spiritual seeker who had done a lot of pilgrimage. And it took him more that forty years to almost reach the top of the mountain. We can imagine how many difficulties, effort, dedication, care, sacrifice and much more. And this man arrived while thinking: " I have come to this place because I have two questions and require to know the answers: Where does sadness live? Where does happiness live? Where does love live? Where does hatred live? Where is peace found? Where is violence found? Where is brotherhood found? Where is discord found? And since this is a big duality where both oppose, I will concentrate my question: Where is divine love found and where the hell of hatred is found? A wise man came out of a deep cave and said: " You, probably think that you have done a big effort and that you have the authority to ask two questions but we got together and decided to give you only one answer and nothing more." But the man who was asking, protested saying: " You will leave me with a doubt, my knowledge will be incomplete, and I will walk like dragging a leg, I need the two answers but I will simplify even more my question: Where is heaven and where is hell? " The old man answered: " Do not worry asking for many answers because what I will say, will answer your two questions at the same time. And even more, I will tell you something that will make you shudder deep inside: Heaven and hell are found in your own heart." |
