There is a little story. Once, set out on a journey around the world. One day, standing on a beach, he was listening in rapt attention to the -like roaring of the waves of the sea. Then, swept by the breeze, two pieces of straw fell into the sea. Wave after wave rose up and pushed the straw ashore. In the meantime, some withered leaves also fell into the sea. At once, they, too, were pushed to the shore by the rising waves. ’s vision was not merely external. He could grasp the inner significance of events. Seeing the waves push away everything, he said to himself, “Oh! the waves have taught me a good lesson today”, and he regarded the sea as one among his twenty-four preceptors.
