Waves have been flowing in the sea for billions of years. They have been witness to different eras; still they toss and turn with the same pace and freshness.
Once, during night time, a wave observed that a boat was floating right in the middle of the sea. However there was no sailor on the boat.
The wave was rather surprised and wondered what kind of a boat that was. He spoke about it to a neighboring wave and that one spoke to a third one and then the third one spoke to a fourth one and so on… After a while, all the waves knew about it and were jumping over each other to catch a glimpse of the boat and were also trying to trace the sailor.
The boat was aimlessly sailing from one place to another.
The waves felt pity on the boat.All the waves collectively urged the sea to bail the boat out of its pitiable state.
The sea glanced at the boat sailing on its breast, and solemnly declared, “My children, you are all very kind to be feeling sad to see this boat in such a sorry state. But perhaps you are not aware that beyond this sea, where creatures named ‘human beings’ reside, there are billions of boats that float around aimlessly without a sailor”.
BILLIONS of boats without a sailor! This was simply mind boggling. The boats were stunned on hearing this. The sea became grim, while the waves were flummoxed and had no clue how to respond. Meanwhile, the boat was still floating about aimlessly here there and everywhere.
