Perception


Once upon a time, there was a wise landlord. He wanted his four sons to learn a valuable life lesson.

 

One winter, he asked his first son to go and see his mango grove.When spring sprung up, he asked his second son to do the same thingSummer came, and he now asked his third son to go and see the mango grove. At autumn fall, he asked his last son to make a journey to the mango grove.

 

One day, after passage of few days after their return of the last son, he asked each what he had seen in the Mango grove.

 

The first one reported “Dad, the tree looked almost bare and I was finding emptiness around”.The second said “Oh No, it was pleasant to see that the trees leafy and green”. The third mentioned, “It was a great scene. The trees were blooming with tiny flowers and it was a wonderful sight for me”. Lastly, the last son said “What a marvelous is the creation! The trees were full of yellowish fruits and it was so nice for me to see that many birds were flocking and having a bite for them”.

 

The landlord said to them “You all were right, for you each saw the trees at different times and you got a perception about as you saw at that point of time. Our perceptions will change from time to time. I would suggest that you could start sharing your perceptions and start visualizing the perception in different perceptive without waiting for the time to come”.
