One
day, a saint while going somewhere with his disciples saw a pond full of
fishes, on the way. He stopped there and started filling his mouth with fish.
The disciples followed their guru. The saint said nothing to them and after
some time moved ahead.
Then
they reached another pond, where there were no fishes. The saint stood at its
shore and started taking out the fishes he had swallowed. When the disciples
saw this, they were amazed and also tried to vomit out the fishes, but after
many attempts, they could only take out some dead fishes.
At
this, the saint said, "Fools, when you didn't know how to keep the fishes
alive in the stomach, then why did you imitate me?"
Its
truly said that never imitate anyone.
