One day the
Guru and the Sishya or disciple went to a house to beg for alms.
There was a feast in that house at the time.
So the lady of the house gave them excellent food.The
next day Matsyendranath told Gorakhnath: "Son, go to the same house, and ask for the
same kind of food. I liked the dishes."
Accordingly Gorakhnath went and asked.
But the lady said: "Yesterday we had a feast. So I
gave you delicious food. How can I prepare that kind of food everyday?"
Gorakhnath said: "Mother, my Guru wants it. It is my
duty to get it somehow."
The woman said: "If your Guru asks for your eyes, will
you pluck them out and give them to him?" |
