Scholar

In a village, there were discourses one day every week. For this, knowledgeable great men were called from far and wide.

It was arranged by some enlightened people of the village, so that the villagers had some knowledge about the religion. One day a scholar was called. All the villagers also reached on time. The scholar asked the villagers, "Do you know what knowledge I will tell you?"  The villagers said, "No, we don't know anything, nor do we know anything."

The gentleman became angry and said, "When you don't know what to say then what to say."

The scholar left angrily. The village headman approaches him and apologizes to him that the villagers are illiterate, what they know what to say. Somehow he persuaded the scholar to come again.

The next day, the scholar again posed the same question - do you know what I'm going to say?  This time the villagers were alert.

The villagers said, "Yes, we know what you will say. The scholar was also offended by this." The scholar said, "When you know what I am going to say, it means that you are more knowledgeable than me. The scholar went away again, saying. The villagers were confused about how to treat a scholar, What to say.

He was brought back to explain. This time when the scholar asked the same question, the villagers got up and left. The gentleman said angrily, "Hey, I've come to say something, you guys are leaving."  To this, some villagers folded their hands and said, "Look, you are the supreme knower. We villagers are foolish and ignorant. We do not understand your words. Please do not waste your precious words on us. The learned men are left alone and their pride broke.

To say that we should never boast about our knowledge. Whoever wants knowledge from us should give it knowledge, because knowledge grows by sharing.
