There was a dance arranged, and three people came and sat down, a sannyasi, a king, and a brahmana. So then the dance was going on and the organiser of the program came and asked the king, "How do you like it?" The king said, "It is wonderful, so satisfying. What an artistic performance." So then he went to the brahmana and asked, "What do you think of this?" "Oh this is Brahman. The Brahman is now thinking, 'I am this particular artist, so in that conception he is able to organize all the different capacities of the body, and he is moving the hand this way and that way. Actually I see Brahman." So then he went to the sannyasi and asked, "What do you see here?" "Oh actually I see a skeleton. It's just bones, and the air is moving it that way. I don't see anything else." MORAL: There are different ways of seeing things according to one's realization.
