A man was passing a street when he met a jaina monk. The jaina monk looked at him and said ’You will die within three months’. The man became afraid, naturally. He went home and he became ill. He felt nausea; he vomited. He tried to throw it out, but it wouldn’t go... it haunted him. He told his wife and she started crying. Then the children came to know, and the whole neighbourhood.
The jaina monk was right. But still, this was an interference. At least he was going to live three months more... you have killed him right now! Not that the monk was wrong. It was right – the man was going to die within three months; it was so, perfectly true. But monk seems to be mad and should report the monk to the police – because he is a murderer!
The man became very happy. He reported it to the police. The jaina monk became afraid when he saw police. He said ’But I felt...’ But that is not the point. Someone told him that it was not his business, and that this man was not going to die, and was he certain about it? The man might die just because he had told him; then who would be the murderer?
The monk became very afraid when he heard that it had been reported to the police and that it could become a criminal case. He apologised and said that he was wrong, and that he had been reading some astrological books, and that he had felt that he was right. And the man survived... he has not died. He is still alive.
The jaina monk was right, the insight was right, but insight is not absolute certainty. Life is a hazard. It is not mathematical. Sometimes two plus two are four, sometimes not. Sometimes two plus two make five. Sometimes two plus two don’t make four, they are three. Life is not very mathematical; no mathematician can explain it.
When you are saying something in regards to life and demise, you ought to dither. Be more aware... it is not your issue to worry about. On the off chance that you feel, record it in your journal, however don't state anything to anyone. At the point when the individual has kicked the bucket, at that point you can demonstrate individuals your journal, demonstrate to them this has been your inclination, mm? Be that as it may, never interfere.
