Verses
of Wisdom
At Kashi, one day Sankara had a strange experience. He was going to the Ganges for his
bath when an outcaste came from the opposite direction with four dogs and obstructed the
way. Sankara ordered him out his path. The outcaste retorted: "Whom are you ask to
get away, the body or the soul? The soul is pure and omnipresent. Is there any difference
in the reflection of the moon seen in the Ganges or in a wine cup. As for the body, it is
inert; can it move away?" Sankara was taken aback. |
