Parable of The Old Lady and The Needle - HH.swami Sivananda

Parable of The Old Lady and The Needle

One old lady lost a needle in the house, But she was searching for it outside

In the moonlight.

One man asked her:

"O lady, what are you searching here?"

She replied: I lost a needle in the house;

There is darkness inside;

So I am searching for the needle here."

Worldly people are like this old lady.

They are searching for happiness in the object,

Where real happiness does not exist.

Look within; control the mind;

You will find the object of your quest in your own Atman.
