One day, a wise man 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 the wise man asked one of his disciples to get him some water from the lake.
A disciple walked up to the lake and noticed bullock cart started crossing through the lake.
As a result, the water became very muddy. So he came back and told the wise man, “The water in the lake is muddy. I don’t think it is suitable to drink.”
After a while, the wise man 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 out that the mud had settled down.
The water was clean so he collected some in a pot and brought it to the wise man.
The wise man 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 little time and it will settle down on its own.”
A disturbed mind cannot make the best decision. Give yourself some time and allow yourself some time and allow yourself to settle down.
Keep calm and remember there’s always a way out.
