A lame
man and a blind man became friends and they moved from one
place to another, with the lame man riding on the shoulder
of the blind. One day, the lame man saw a field of yellow
cucumber and suggested to the blind man that they pick a
few and eat their fill. The blind man asked,
“Brother, have they fenced the crop?” The lame
man said, “No!” The blind man said, “Then
let us move on, you know there are sweet and bitter
varieties – if these vegetables are left unguarded
– they must be bitter!” The blind man, by his
intellect, was able to discover that they were bitter even
without tasting them. He used the intelligence to perceive
the truth faster and clearer. Make the intellect the Master
of your mind and you will not fail; you will fail only when
the senses establish mastery over the mind. Clarify your
intelligence through spiritual discipline.
Bagavan Sri Sri Sri Sathya Sai Baba
