Guru & Disciple Cross the River

A Guru and his disciple were walking in the Himalayas back to their monastery. It was a long way and the roads were tough as it is a hilly region. On their way to the monastery there was a branch of river Ganga flowing fully though less violently.

There was an young maiden sitting close to the river, whose village was just across the river, she was scared to cross the river by herself, she asked the elder monk to help her cross the river.

“Sure” said the elder monk and held her up in his arms, they crossed the river, he let her down, she went to her village after thanking the monk. The younger monk wasn’t taking this all easily. He looked little worried.

The monks came to their monastery after couple of hours of difficult walk in the hills, the younger monk was still not settled, sensing it the Guru asked him what the matter was. The disciple said “Master, we have sworn of not touching a woman, but you carried her in your arms, you tell us not to think of women but you touched her” complained the disciple.

Guru said this with a smile : “I carried her across the river and left her on the other side, but you are still carrying her
