SPIRITUALITY:-
Once Buddha was in a deep discussion with the emperor. Suddenly, a very old monk came - he must be 90 years old, he bowed before the master and said, “I am very sorry to disturb you - but I have to leave and I must reach the other monastery before it gets dark.

I have come to touch your feet and seek your blessings.” Buddha looked into the eyes of the old monk and asked, “How old are you?” And the old monk said, “I am four years old.” Buddha smiled and said, “You can leave, my blessings are with you.” The emperor was shocked

when the old monk left, he asked Buddha, “How come the old monk who looks beyond 90 years – says that he is four years old?” And Buddha said, “Real age is the point from where you start turning inwards - and you have been asking me all sorts of stupid questions -

so I thought why not to give you the real thing. That is why I asked the old man - his age - so that you stop asking all stupid questions and start asking some sensible question.” Your money, your status, your cars, your bungalows, your sexuality -

everything is going to turn into ashes someday - then what comes with YOU? Only the growth that you have attained WITHIN - only that comes with you!
