An Awakening

Once upon a time, a Sage sat by the beach in deep contemplation on the subject of Ignorance. Just, he observed a little boy digging a hole in the sand, then goes to the water’s edge with a small bucket, scoops a bucketful of water and pours it into the hole. He did this repeatedly and the Sage could not contain his curiosity as to the objective. He asked the boy what he was trying to do. The boy replied that he wanted to empty the sea into the hole. With that reply, the Sage was awakened to the nature of the Human Mind.
