A wise young man went to a wise old man and asked him to *teach him further.
The wise old man received him with grace and as usual offered him tea.
He poured it in the first cup till brim and then poured it in the second till it started
Over flowing .the table linen was also wet and at last the wise young man said
”what are you doing master, the tea is all around the table”
The wise old man said” your state of mind is like that and until you empty it by imparting to others, you can not receive my teaching any more.
So this is the reality of our life. Be it knowledge, money, love, kindness or any material thing, if one is receiving it and continue keeping it in coffer without getting it parted to others in any form, his coffer will be full with no addition.
*I want to cite the example of Bill Gates who had imparted a bigger share of his money to all needy people, because he thought people will always remember him for creating, and developing Microsoft Corporation and imparting the world knowledge of computerworld. But his wish was to be remembered for his contribution towards the society ’s upliftment and best support to needy persons.
*Our President Mr A.P.J Abdul Kalam is also the best example to cite, as he continue teaching from Rashtrapati Bhawan through Video Conferencing. A learned person who never like to live in Rashtrapati Bhawan like his other previous Presidents.
*Another example is of Mr. Narayan Murthy who had also relinquished his seat for his successor and retired, thou he still holds majority shareholding in the company.He had also parted lots of his money to charitable institution.He also wanted other person to share, and contribute towards Infosys Corporation.
And many more persons may be cited who did empty their coffers for the needy people.*
*In case of knowledge, if we impart to others, we will be getting reputation of Guru , Advisor. And one day some one with more knowledge will approach him to impart his knowledge.
It is rightly said “one who is giving is not doing anything special for the receiver but receiver should always feel grateful to the giver.
*Again I want to be specific also that when a person is imparting his knowledge or experience to others, he should always be careful about the place, time and the person/s)sthan, kaal and patra)
All the three are important at its place. Suppose if a teacher wants to deliver a speech, he should be in a classroom or in an auditorium, the time be best suited to all the people and the audience should have enough basic knowledge , to receive expert knowledge as addition from the speaker.
