A Religious Wise Man

An old wise religious teacher was walking though a forest with his pupil.


As they were about to cross a river they saw a young beautiful girl who was unable to cross the river. The religious the old man held to a very strictly rule which is to forbade touching other women except their wives. 


The old man thought if he left the young girl there alone, wild animals from the forest would eat her.So he helped her to cross the river.After crossing the river the old man and his student started to walk alone again.


Some moments later the student,with a hidden excitement,asked,’Guru,how could you violate your religion’s law being a religious leader yourself?’

The man answered,"Son,I have stopped carrying the girl as soon we crossed the river but it is you who is still carrying her in your mind"
