00:00The teacher is sick and the teacher is dying.

00:02And his favorite student is by his bedside.

00:04And the teacher says,

00:06So I am going now.

00:07Show me what you have learned from me.

00:09So the student keeps standing.

00:11Does not do anything.

00:13He says, I am going.

00:14He roars.

00:16The cup containing the teacher's medicine

00:17is there by the teacher's side.

00:21The student pushes the cup a little towards the teacher.

00:24The teacher does not take any medicines.

00:26And the teacher is saying,

00:28Show me what you have learned from me.

00:30The student pushes the cup towards the teacher.

00:32Now the dying teacher roars even more loudly.

00:35He says, Is that all?

00:36Is that all you have learned from me?

00:38The student withdraws the cup from the teacher.

00:41The teacher laughs, deeply laughs and joyfully dies.

00:46In pushing the cup towards the teacher,

00:48the student said,

00:49I care for your body.

00:51I do give weightage and regards to your body

00:54because your body is very important.

00:55Without your body,

00:56you would have been no help to anybody.

00:58So your body must be taken care of.

01:00At least take the medicine.

01:01The teacher says,

01:02No, this is not sufficient.

01:03What more have you learned?

01:04The student says,

01:05On one hand,

01:06I am offering you medicine.

01:07On the other hand,

01:08Sir, I continuously remember

01:10that you are someone

01:11who does not need any medicine.

01:13You are the true self.

01:14It does not need any medicine.

01:16The teacher says,

01:17Now you know.

01:17That must be the attitude of every student.

01:20That must be the attitude of every reader

01:22who picks up a scripture to read.
