The story of a blind and the lantern by Kazeronnie Mak (best love novels of all time txt) 📕

An ascetic came from a long journey to an obscure village in a gloomy night.
There were some villagers continuous walking to and fro on the streets.
When the ascetic walked into an alley,
he saw a dim yellow light approaching quietly from the deep end of the alleyway.
A villager said, ‘The blind is coming!’
THE BLIND! The ascetic wondered.
He asked someone nearby,
‘Is that person carrying a lantern really blind?’
The answer was absolutely yes.
The ascetic was all at sea.
He thought to a blind person who should be no concept about
the white-day and black-day.
He could not see the mountains, the water flows and the variables of
everything in the world.
Certainly, he had no idea of what the light was!
What on earth he carried a lantern for!
When the dim yellow light was shifting closer and
it reflected upon the ascetic’s shoes.
‘Excuse me, Mister, are you really blind?’
the very muddled ascetic asked.
‘Yes, I am. I was sightless since I was born!’ the blind replied.
The ascetic asked again,
‘In that case, why are you carrying the lantern for?’
The blind asked, ‘Is it into the night now?
I heard that the people will be same as me seeing nothing.
If there is no light when the night falls,
therefore I light up a lantern.’
The ascetic seemed to realize, ‘You do it for others!’
‘No, I do it for myself!’ the blind said.
The ascetic surprised, ‘You do it for yourself!’
He said slowly, ‘Have you ever been bumped into during the dark?’
‘Oh, yes! I have already been bumped into by two persons.’
the ascetic answered.
The blind said in a low pitched voice,
‘It never happens to me! Although I am blind,
it will light up the ways for the people when I carry the lantern.
Also, it will let the people seeing me too.
Just like this, they will never run into me by not seeing.’
After listened to the blind saying, the ascetic comprehended.
He faced upward to the sky with a deep sighed,
‘I am spending my whole life seeking for Buddha.
Buddha just stands in front of me unexpectedly!
The Buddha nature is like a lantern, only when I light HIM up,
Buddha can see me anywhere. Even though, I don’t see HIM.

The story was simply like that,
it ignited to the bottom of our hearts with a flash of time.

we had to appreciate the art of the eternity of true love!
Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without
