Acharya Mahaprajna
17th May
Over a long time it was observed by people, that a huge tree which gave shade during the day became the shelter for birds at night.
One day there was a storm and the tree fell.
Those who sat by its shade, kept recollecting it.
Those who took shelter in it by night went to another tree for shelter.
While nothing can be said about the tree, it can be said about both those who sat in the shade and those who took shelter in the tree that they were sad and distressed.
The dense covering and comfortable shelter it provided continue to exhilarate their memories even today.
