Dear readers, Namastè!

With his stories, Osho there curtains that thin silk thread to check us enjoy again freedom.

Enjoy reading this story ...

In one night completely obscure even a single ray of light is a blessing; in fact, if you follow it, you will reach the source of light.

For some reason a King became angry with his Prime Minister and imprisoned him in a cell at the top of a minaret. It was really a very painful death sentence because no one brought him food and there was no chance to escape from that height.

When the Prime Minister was led to his imprisonment in the Minaret, people noticed that didn't look like neither worried nor unhappy; on the contrary, was cheerful as always.

His wife, telling him goodbye through tears, asked him why she look like that happy and he replied, "If even only a silk thread I will, I'll be free. You couldn't do a thing so small? " The wife thought a lot, but he couldn't imagine how he could bring him a silk thread on that very high minaret.

He asked advice from a mystic who replied, "Grabbing one of those insects called bhingra, a silk thread to tie his leg and put a drop of honey on her antennae. Then cut him loose on the Minaret with the head pointed upward. " He did that night and the insect, attracted by the aroma of honey on his own antennas, slowly began to climb the minaret. At the end of its long journey, one end of the FLOSS came into the hands of a prisoner locked up there. That thin thread of silk became the tool to regain their freedom and their lives because later, thanks to that same thread, the first arrived a slightly thicker cotton yarn, then a string and finally a sturdy rope with the help of whom managed to escape. That is why I say that, to reach the Sun, even a single ray of light is sufficient and you don't even need someone to send him: everyone already possess it. If you can find this RADIUS, you can find even the Sun! The life that is in each of us is a beacon of immortality, this awareness is a drop of enlightenment and inner joy is nothing more than a Flash of sat chit anand: truth, consciousness, Bliss.

Thank you for your attention
