A story of Sri Sri Krishna*
*Once, it so happened that Lord Krishna was standing in front of the mirror decorating himself. He was trying on different crowns on his head and putting on some fine jewelry while his charioteer waited outside with the chariot ready. His charioteer waited and waited and thought to himself – usually Krishna comes immediately, today he has still not come. So, out of curiosity he went inside to find out if the program was still on because Krishna was very unpredictable, anytime anything could change. So, the charioteer goes inside and he sees Lord Krishna standing in front of the mirror admiring himself.*
*He politely asked, "My dear Lord, tell me, why are you dressing up so much today. Where are we going?"*
*Lord Krishna said, "I am going to meet Duryodhana."*
*The charioteer said, "You are dressing up so much to meet Duryodhana?"*
*Lord Krishna then said, "He cannot see my inside, he can only appreciate my outside. So how I am dressed will impress him because he cannot see my inside."*
*Then the charioteer said, "You are going to Duryodhana? You should not go, he should come to you. This I cannot accept."*
*Many times, the drivers and assistants give you more advise than needed. He continued to say, "This is not fair. Look at your status and look at him! You are the Lord of the world. You should not go, let him come."*
*Krishna turned back, looked at him, smiled and said, "Darkness does not come to light, light has to go to darkness."*
*These few words silenced the charioteer.*
