View page note
Such people are really the angles on this Earth.
Ancient India had an abundance of such angels.
A long time ago, there ruled an Indian king called Bindujaat.
One day he decided that all the monks in his empire be distributed gold coins for their livelihood.
He assigned this task to his trusted councilor Gritsmud.
For several days Gritsmud roamed around the kingdom but could not distribute a single coin.
At last he came back to the king and returned all the gold coins.
Surprised, the King asked, "Couldn't you find a single needy monk in the entire kingdom, who would accept my help?
" Gritsmud drew a deep breath and said, "O great King I have indeed failed to implement your orders.
There is no shortage of monks who have dedicated their entire lives for missions of social uplift, but they have reduced their own personal needs to such an extent that they do not need our help.
If you really wish tospend this wealth on monks, you have to invest it to their missions, since none of them is ready to accept it for their personal use."
