One day, a religious leader was walking from one town to another with a few of his followers.
While they were traveling, they happened to pass by a lake. They stopped to rest there and religious leader asked one of his disciples to get him some water from the lake.
A disciple walked up to the lake. When he reached it, he noticed some people were washing clothes in the water and, right at that moment, a bullock cart started crossing through the lake.
As a result, the water became very muddy. The disciple thought, “How can I give this muddy water to my leader to drink!””
So he came back and told the religious leader,“”The water in the lake is very muddy. I don’t think it is suitable to drink.”
After a while, the religious leader again asked the same disciple to go back to the lake and get him some water.
The disciple obediently went back to the lake. This time he found that the mud had settled down and the water was clean so he collected some in a pot and brought it to the religious leader.
The religious leader looked at the water then looked up at the disciple and said, “See what you did to make the water clean. You let it be and the mud settled down on its own. It is also the same with your mind. When it is disturbed, just let it be. Give it a little time and it will settle down on its own.” (Author unknown)
