In search of human being



                               In search of human being


There was a philosopher living on the outskirts of a city. He was very wise and was well versed in the affairs of the world. So all the people respected him.
One day they saw him with a lighted lantern in his hand during the day time and going some where. People were astonished. One of them asked him ," Sir! where are you going ? "
He replied " I have lost something. I am going in search of that."
A person out of curiosity asked him, " what has been lost?"
He replied, " Human being. I am going in search of him."
Then all of them said together, " Are we not human beings?"
" No, you are not ."
" Then what are we ?"
The philosopher answered , " Among you some are businessmen, some are teachers, some are engineers, some are doctors. The pity is no one is human being here. A human being is one who loves all equally and considers all as his equal. Just look into you heart and see the truth. People looked at each other and went away quietly.
