We come empty; we go empty.

 

We come empty; we go empty.

A middle-aged man approached an old monk to clarify his doubts, the old monk with a warm smile asked-

"How can I help you?"

 The Middle-aged man asked the master, "I have some doubts regarding my dreams."

 The old monk smiled & said, "proceed."

 Master "In my dreams, I see myself forgetting something or other when I move from one place to another"

 The monk asked, "Can you recollect the items."

He said, " I forgot to carry my Wallet, umbrella, Mobile, bag and a book."

 The monk said 

 ·         You cannot carry your money when you depart.

 ·         You cannot carry your property when you depart.

 ·         People will not come along with you when you depart.

 ·         Your pride and pain will not come with you when you depart.

 Neither your intelligence nor your knowledge will come along with you when you depart.

 Remember, your dream was not reality but, it has taught a philosophy that "we come empty and go empty." Don't worry about what you had forgotten to carry back in your dream world because you have nothing to carry back in your real world.
