The Monk and a Man in a Village
Once upon a time, a monk arrived at the outskirts of a village and settled down under a tree to rest for the night. Early the next morning he was woken up by a man. The man was from the village. He said to the monk, “Please give me the stone.” It appears that in a dream the man was told by the village deity that he would find a monk outside the village who had a stone that would make him extremely wealthy. “I want that stone,” said the man to the monk. The monk took out a stone from his little bundle of possessions. It was a large diamond as big as a fist. “I found it in the forest yesterday. Here, take it. It’s yours,” said the monk. The man was overjoyed and ran back to his village. That whole day, the man considered his wealth and made big plans about all the things he would buy and how happy he would be. His imagination ran wild. He was rich. Richer than everyone he ever knew. But then suddenly he remembered the monk at the edge of the village. The monk had given him the diamond without the slightest hesitation. The man ran back to the monk outside village, fell to his knees and said, “Sir, tell me how can I get the inner wealth and contentment compared to which all external wealth is worthless?”
