Multiple teaching is needed like multiple cleaning


Multiple teaching is needed   like multiple cleaning

By
P.R.Ramachander

(Based on  a story in  Kumudam  Bhakthi. Acknowledgements   to Saravanan   who has contributed it.)

One confused soul went to a great  Guru    and asked him ,
“What is the need for me    to daily   come and hear  you,
Saying   almost   the same thing , Oh realised   soul”
And the Guru laughed    and  entrusted a horse to him.



Then the Guru told him, Please keep this horse   clean.”
AS soon the devotee cleaned the horse  , it again made  itsef dirty ,
And He cleaned the horse again and  so on endlessly  and the Guru ,
Called him and told, “Like one cleaning is not   enough for the horse  ,
One teaching is not sufficient   for you , and so I teach you again and Again.”
