Who is a Master?

In life we all meet many people who label themselves as Zen Master,
Reiki Master, Tao Master and so on....And every one has a different
perception about which master is who and what and how are their
teachings...

I would like to share a small story on this word called MASTER...

Who Is a master?

Once there lived two jewel makers... They made excellent designs and
were famous for their jewelry designs... One day they both decided to
make a master piece and started working on it...
One of them put all his mind and effort in his creation... He decided
to make the best one and the best design and started processing the
gold... As he started processing, the gold started glittering.. The
more he dipped the piece of gold in fire the more he found that the
gold was becoming more pure and pure... He felt more excited and kept
on the gold into fire again and again.. He felt even more glad of his
work and with all the head strong attitude he put the gold into tough
process...

And the other one without much in his mind did his work with so much
of compassion and gratitude towards the piece of gold he had in his
hand... He always thanked the piece of gold for choosing him as its
creator...

Finally, the day has come, where all the other jewel makers were very
eager to see the ornament made by these two ornament creators... All
of them gathered in a hall to see the master piece..

The first one came in front with his piece and it was shocking to
every one... All found it broken and the maker stood with his head
down... He learnt that his head strong attitude and his harshness
towards his piece of gold, broke the gold-piece and left it no
where... The piece of gold could not come out as any ornament... May
be it is forced to choose another life time...

The other maker was the winner and won many awards for his creation...
He kept his master piece untouched by anyone in his personal space all
his life... Copies of that design were made, however master piece
remained a master piece...

With all the humility let us all request and pray to all the masters
and creators to allow the flow of their teachings with all the
compassion and gratitude towards their upcoming masters and creators..
Let us not break the evolution of a being with harshness in words and
deeds on the name of teaching before they flower.... REMEMBER... The
harshness may lead to any extent... ARE ALL THE MASTERS READY FOR
IT...

"Master is the one who knows and understands that it is not his
greatness that people stand for him, its the greatness of all those
who stand and Masters greatness lies in accepting all of them
unconditionally..."

I experienced... How about you?...
