The Power of Sharing: A Story of Beautiful Pottery



Once upon a time, there was a small village in the mountains, where the people had a tradition of making beautiful pottery. They would collect clay from the nearby river, mold it into intricate shapes, and bake it in the sun to create stunning pieces of pottery.

One day, a traveler passing through the village saw the pottery and was amazed by its beauty. He asked the villagers how they were able to create such amazing pieces, and they told him about their tradition and the care they took in crafting each piece.

The traveler was so impressed that he decided to buy some of the pottery and take it with him on his travels. He was sure that people in other places would love the pottery just as much as he did, and he wanted to share the beauty of the village with the world.

As the traveler continued on his journey, he encountered many people who were fascinated by the pottery. They marveled at its intricate designs and the skill of the villagers who created it. The traveler felt proud to be able to share the work of the villagers with so many people, and he knew that the village would become famous for its pottery.

Years passed, and the village did indeed become famous for its pottery. People from all over the world came to visit and buy the beautiful pieces. The villagers were proud of their work and grateful to the traveler who had shared their tradition with the world.

This story shows us the power of sharing and the impact it can have. The traveler was able to spread the beauty of the village's pottery to the world, and in doing so, he brought attention and recognition to the villagers and their tradition. By sharing our own talents and traditions with others, we can enrich their lives and make a positive impact in the world.

  Once, a young monk approached Buddha and asked, "Master, how can I achieve enlightenment?" Buddha replied, "Enlightenment cannot be achieved by simply asking for it. It is a journey that requires great effort and dedication." The young monk persisted and asked, "But how can I begin this journey?" Buddha replied, "The journey begins with mindfulness.

The young monk asked, "But how can I be mindful all the time?" Buddha said, "Start with small things. Focus on the sensation of your breath, the movement of your body, the taste of your food.

  Once, Lord Buddha was traveling through a village when a man approached him and started insulting him with harsh words. The man hurled abuse at Lord Buddha, calling him a fake, a fraud and a charlatan. Lord Buddha remained calm and composed, and did not react to the man's insults. Instead, he listened patiently until the man had finished speaking. When the man had exhausted his anger, Lord Buddha calmly asked him a question, "If you offer someone a gift, and they refuse to accept it, to whom does the gift belong?" The man was taken aback by the Buddha's question and replied, "It would belong to me, as I am the one offering the gift." Lord Buddha smiled and said, "The same is true of your insults. If I do not accept them, they remain with you." The man was struck by the Buddha's wisdom and realized the futility of his anger and insults. He became a follower of Lord Buddha and dedicated the rest of his life to spreading his teachings....
