Bahaudin and the wandering dervish
One day the teacher Bahaudin was with his disciples in the square of Bukhara when approached by a wandering dervish.
- Where are you from? Asked the teacher.
"I have no idea," said the other laughing stupidly.
Some of the disciples murmured their disapproval of this disrespect.
- Where you going? "Continued Bahaudin.
- I do not know! Shouted the dervish.
- What is Good? -. By then he had gathered a large crowd around them.
I do not know.
- What is Evil?
"I have no idea.
- What is Right?
"Everything is good for me.
- What's Wrong?
"Everything is bad for me.
The people, their patience exhausted, irritated by the dervish, chasing him away. This went on foot, striding with a location undetermined.
- Fool! Bahaudin cried. This man was playing the part of humanity. While you despised him, he will deliberately taught the lack of attention that you will show all unconsciously, every day of your life.
Story the Sufi tradition.
