WHAT ELEPHANTS?
A great religious leader was teaching his followers in the jungles of India. Devotees from around the world came to hear his teaching. He taught that which most people considered reality was only an illusion. During one of his discourses, his lecture was stampeded by a herd of wild elephants. He and his followers immediately climbed trees to protect themselves for certain destruction. As they gathered composure and returned to their circle, one doubting disciple asked his religious master why, if the elephants were only illusions and not real, the religious leader joined the rest of the group in the trees. The religious leader’s answer: “WHAT ELEPHANTS?” Adapted from an illustration
