One in the west (the third parable)
by Raj Arumugam (Director, www.ttscourses.com.au )
One goes west.
And one is received by a delegation of another.
They welcome one and have one seated at a table.
We are pleased to present you, says the delegation of another, this book which has all the answers. Everything that is anywhere else is in here; and all things that are not anywhere else are all here. So this is complete.
And the delegation of another pauses for dramatic effect.
All things have been worked out. The plan; the system; what you must do; how many times things have to be done. All things. There is no need for anything else.
And again the delegation pauses.
And read it. And then listen to our talks; and then our Guides and our Leader will make all things certain. Everything is done for you. All our contact details are in there. Take it.
One gently pushes the book back to the delegation. One stands up, bows and departs.
You are a fool! the delegation shouts. Everything is done for you, and offered to you on a silver platter, and yet you refuse! You are a fool!
