1 The curious student

Once, of there was a hermit who lived in theer forest and had a pleasant life in which he did yoga and meditation and was happy with his life. One sunny day he went to River to drink some water, there he saw many children were playing. Then he drank his fill and watched the children playing. Then someone threw the ball in the river, everyone tried but not succeed in taking out the ball . Then the hermit took a long stick and threw it on the ball , the stick went straight to the ball and got stuck there one boy took it out of water. when the hermit started moving forward to forest one boy followed him , he followed him till night, the hermit knew that someone was following him he was testing the boy the boy kept on following him till it was completely dark. then at a point hermit stopped and asked the boy that why he was following him the boy answered in bold voice that "I want to learn from you all what you know" the hermit knew

that he wanted to know his art then he thought a moment that if he won't teach any one what he learned then his knowledge will be complete waste. and said ok but on some conditions he told , first the boy should serve him. second he will live with him , third he will always follow his words and never argue with him , the boy told ok and touched the hermit's feet and had accepted him as his teacher.
