THE LOVING SADHU



In a village there lived two sadhus .one was  GURU and the other was his disciple . The disciple was very kind and loving towards the villagers . His daily ritual was very divine .He woke up early in the morning,  took bath ,did meditation and chanting , went to village for bhiksha . what ever he used to get in bhiksha he gave half of it to his dog . people of the village came to him with their problems ...some had physical aliment some had emotional problems . The disciple was very kind and loving towards every one .He patiently heard the problems and gave bhabhuta ( ash ) to people for fast recovery . His words and love worked miracle for people . Every day he was surrounded by many villagers from  far and near .
On the contrary ..his guru never allowed people to sit near him nor he become part of them .When villagers came to him ..he shut his doors .He seemed to be very unkind .
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN KINDNESS AND COMPASSION 
Kindness is a emotion that can be enjoyed by any one .An ignorant person can be kind , a foolish man can be kind , a murderer can be kind but compassion is deep vastness . It is the essence of true nature . One who has vaporized in its true nature happens to be compassionate .Compassion some times seems to be unkind .A compassionate one never allows a seeker to hanker on its problems and attachments . He never entertains the problems of seekers .  
The disciple was unable to see that by nursing the problems of people he was keeping them in trap of misery ,attachments and ignorance . If the seeker is not nursed for his wounds and misery .he will stop enjoying ( false )miseries and problems .he may be LIBERATED
