Beauty
An
Interaction between Monk & His Disciple
A Disciple asked a Monk " What
should I do look more beautiful?
Monk asked "My dear, young lady,
can you tell me, what is beautiful?"
The Disciple said "I should look
attractive and people should like me, when they see me"
The Monk asked "Do you like
people who are beautiful?"
The lady said” yes I do"
The Monk asked "Do you like
people who are good at heart?"
The lady said "Yes"
The Monk asked " Between Beauty
and heart, which one is more important"
The Lady said "Heart"
The Monk smiled and said "beauty
is in the eyes of the beholder, what is beautiful to you need not be beautiful
to me.
Remember, Beauty might fade with age,
but good heart glows at any age
The Lady said "I do understand
this philosophy, but I need some inputs to look beautiful"
The Monk asked" If you love
someone, what will you do?"
The Lady said "I will take care
of that person"
The Monk asked "Do you love
you?"
The lady was silent for a while and
said " yes I do"
The Monk said " Take care of
yourself, the way you take care of the person whom you love"
The Monk also said "the
cosmetic care might add to your beauty, but soulful care will bring out the
confidence in you"
The Lady smiled and said " I
didn't get tips to look beautiful, but I got lessons to be confident"
The Monk smiled and said "You
look beautiful"
