And to everyone who passed by, the tree seemed to be something else. But in all cases the tree was only a tree. We see the world as we are.

Be happy!

Disgruntled people

They come to hell. A man looks, and there, at first glance, everything seems to be the same as in paradise: the same ordinary life, only people are all angry, offended, it is clear that it is bad for them here. He asks the archangel:
- Here everything seems to be the same as in paradise! Why are they all so displeased?
“But because they think that paradise is better.”

Once, 12 brothers of the zodiac signs came to the sage and asked for advice, each in his own way. The sage was silent for a day, the sage was silent for two days, and the zodiac brothers all waited ...

12 brothers zodiac signs

On a high mountain there lived a sage. His hair was white as snow, and his face was covered with wrinkles. Many people turned to him for advice and his advice was accurate, they went right to the heart.

Once, 12 brothers of the zodiac signs came to him and asked for advice, each in his own way. The sage was silent for a day, the sage was silent for two days, and the zodiac brothers all waited.

And only on the 7th day in the light of the young moon the sage told them these parables. And the brothers went away with peace in their hearts and with joy in their hearts ...

To see the sea. Aries

In one poor village a boy was born. He spent his days pointlessly, mechanically and monotonously, like the rest of the inhabitants of this fading village, having no idea what to do with his own life. And one fine night he dreamed of the sea. None of the villagers had ever seen the sea, so no one could confirm that somewhere in the world there is such a vast water.

And when the young man said that he was going to go in search of the sea from his sleep, everyone twisted his finger at the temple and called it a madman. But he, in spite of everything, embarked on a journey and wandered for a long time until he was at a fork in the road. Here he chose the path that led directly, and a few days later he reached the village, whose inhabitants led a quiet, secure life.

When the young man told them that he was wandering, dreaming of finding the sea, they began to convince him that he was wasting his time and it would be better for him to stay in this village and live as happily as everyone else.

For several years the young man lived in abundance. But one night he again dreamed of the sea, and he remembered his unfulfilled dream. The young man decided to leave the village and hit the road again. Saying goodbye to everyone, he returned to the fork and this time went in a different direction. He walked for a long time until he reached the big city.

I admired his hubbub and motley and decided to stay there. He studied, worked, had fun, and eventually completely forgot about the purpose of his trip. However, after a few years, he again saw the sea in a dream and thought that if he did not fulfill the dream of his youth, he would waste his life in vain. Therefore, he again returned to the fork and chose the third road that led him into the forest.

In a small clearing, the young man saw a hut, and next to it was no longer too young, but a beautiful woman who was hanging laundry. She invited him to stay with her, as her husband went to war and did not return. The man agreed. For many years they lived happily, raised children, but once our hero, who was already old, again visited a dream about the sea.

And he left everything that he had been connected with for many years, returned to the fork and set off on the last path, hitherto unknown to him, very steep and rocky. He walked with difficulty and began to fear that he would soon be completely exhausted. Once at the foot of a large mountain, the old man decided to climb it in the hope of at least seeing the sea from his dreams from afar.

A few hours later, at the end of his strength, he reached the top of the mountain. Boundless expanses stretched before him:

• the old man saw a fork in the road and a village in which the inhabitants led a prosperous life,
• and a big city
• and the hut of a woman with whom he spent many happy years.

And in the distance, on the horizon I saw a blue, boundless sea. And, before his tormented heart stopped, the moved old man, through tears of regret, noticed that all the roads on which he walked led to the sea, but only none of them did he go to the end.

Proud deer. a lion

One young Deer had large and beautiful horns, which he was very proud of. No one had such luxurious horns! Near him wild goats grazed, which had such small and crooked horns that he laughed at them. And when he saw wild boars that had no horns at all, and had only crooked fangs, he snorted scornfully and turned away from them. After all, he had something to be proud of!

Everything in his life would be wonderful if not for his legs. It seemed to them that they were very ugly, thin and crooked. He did not tell anyone about this, but he suffered and was very worried about this.

And so, once in a forest there was a fire. All wild animals with fear rushed to run. And at that moment the Deer appreciated all the dignity of his strong legs. They carried him faster than the wind. He overtook all wild boars and antelopes, and would certainly have escaped from the fire, if not for his branched, spreading horns. They are stuck in dense thickets. Wild animals flashed past. The fire was approaching.

And at that moment the Deer first realized how good his legs are, and how ridiculous his horns are, the subject of his pride!

Cheerful monkey. Sagittarius

Once upon a time there was a monkey. So funny. Every morning, the Monkey went to the River. The river was calm and quiet, and the Monkeys really liked to look into it, as if in a mirror. She made different faces, bent into unimaginable poses and screamed joyfully. The river answered with a soft splash and secret silence.

So time passed. Each morning, the Monkey ran to the River, greeting her with a joyful cry. The river shimmered in the sun and attracted with beauty.

But once the Monkey did not come. She did not come the next day, or the third. The river was waiting. Sometimes it seemed that she was completely silent, listening to different sounds, hoping to hear familiar steps. But there was no Monkey.

And then the river began to be sad. Everything in her lost her peace. She rushed about in search of the Monkey. And in the depths of it various metamorphoses began to occur. Either she was seething with restlessness, setting up a flood, or she was acquiring a new undercurrent that filled her and gave strength. The river ceased to be the calm river that it once was.

She began to search for the Way, and once in the Spring, when rains overflowed her banks, she set off on the road. The river hoped to meet again that Monkey, which, as it turned out, meant so much to her. And she was looking. Sometimes the light of the stars showed her the way, and she moved forward, towards the sun.

And then one day, having come a long way, the River saw the boundless, immense and majestic Sea. All this thrilled and fascinated with beauty. The river was filled with a new, inexplicable feeling for her. She threw herself into the Sea and dissolved completely in it, without a trace. She surrendered herself to great depth and strength, becoming one with him.

And now, when the wave rises high, and the sun splashes in the most secret depths, the River remembers her, the Monkey, who helped to find what she needed so much - to find herself. And sometimes it seems to her that Fate itself was that Monkey that showed the way to Happiness.

Mountain and Donkey. calf

A small Donkey walked along a path between the mountains. He dragged a small cart with all kinds of trash. "Funny Donkey," thought Mountain, "Why is he dragging this trash that nobody needs?"

And Horus decided to have fun with the Donkey. She threw a large gray stone into the cart from her heights. The donkey, as it walked, continued to walk.

The Strange Donkey, Mountain thought, and threw another large stone into the cart. The donkey stubbornly dragged his small cart. Along the way, he met people and asked him: “Why are you dragging these useless stones? Wouldn't you rather stop and throw them off the cart? Going right away will be easier. ” But the Donkey stared blankly at the people and, sweating with sweat, stubbornly walked forward, dragging a cart with stones behind him.

The mountain, with more and more excitement, amused itself at the Donkey, marveling at its stubborn stupidity and throwing more and more stones into the cart. “My burden is heavy,” thought the Donkey, panting from overwork. And died.

The perfect camel. Virgo

Many years ago, four scientists traveled with a caravan through the Kavir desert. In the evening they all sat together at a large fire and shared their impressions. They all admired the camels. The truly unpretentiousness of camels, stamina, strength and incomprehensible patience were amazing.

“We all own a pen,” one of them said. “Let's write or draw something in honor of the camel and glorify it.” With these words, he took a parchment scroll and headed for the tent, where the lamp was on. A few minutes later he went out and showed his work to friends. He painted a camel, standing up after rest. The drawing worked so well that the camel seemed alive.

The second entered the tent and soon returned with a brief business sketch about the benefits that camels bring to the caravan.

The third wrote a charming poem.

Finally, the fourth went to the tent and asked him not to disturb. Several hours passed, the fire in the fire had long gone out, and friends had already fallen asleep, and from the dimly lit tent, the creak of a pen and monotonous singing could still be heard. In vain friends waited their friend for three whole days. The tent hid it as securely as the earth that closed behind Aladdin.

Finally, on the fifth day, the most diligent of all diligent left the tent. Black shadows framed his eyes, his cheeks fell, his chin was bristled. With a tired gait and sour expression on his face, as if he had eaten green lemons, he went up to his friends and threw a bunch of parchment scrolls on the carpet in frustration. On the outside of the first scroll it was written in large letters in full: “The perfect camel, or camel, what it should be like ...”

Climbing Capricorn

Everyone told him that this peak was dangerous. Everyone told him that this mountain is the highest in the world. Everyone told him that no one had yet been up there. But one morning he collected all the necessary things and hit the road.

The climb was incredibly difficult. Many times he balanced on a thin blade between life and death. The body seemed to be a stranger and at times reluctant to respond to commands from the brain. But he continued his ascent, gritting his teeth and whispering inaudible words to anyone.

The last meters seemed hell. And now the brain refused to understand where it is, and often painted strange surrealistic paintings. And then the body took on an overwhelming task and continued to climb up.

Having reached the summit in pitch darkness, he filled the entire surrounding space with the bestial cry of the winner and forgot himself for a short restless dream. However, the dawn gave him new impressions: at a distance of several kilometers from the conquered peak, the path to the mountain began, which was two times higher than the conquered.

They should always be there. Twins

They settled on Earth with the first people and always accompanied them, they were always there. They could exist separately. It was a rarity, and, sooner or later, They met. We met again. This is how a person works.

She was beautiful and kind, He was prickly and unpleasant. She was bright and joyful; He was dark and sad. She brought people warmth and hope. He is cold and envy. She filled hearts and thoughts, He devastated and took strength. She came to help and die, and rise again. He lived constantly, changing his appearance and place of residence. Everyone loved her, cherished and cherished, They hated Him and tried to expel her.

But people depended on them equally. And it always has been. At first She came, He followed her relentlessly. Even if they did not notice Him, He still was. He spoiled people's lives with petty dirty tricks and major troubles. And most importantly, He disturbed Her. He interfered in Her work.

Sometimes, only when She appeared, She already suffered a defeat from Him. And the plans of man remained only plans. Ah, how much on Earth was destroyed by Him, not yet created. Because, having met Him at the very beginning of the journey, it was already difficult for Her to get around the barrier that He put before man. And, moreover, to win.

And in the midst of Her work, He did no less harm. His main task was and is - not to give Her along with the person to reach the goal. And how often a person did not listen to Her and turned halfway, under His threat. Even at the very end, He could catch Her and throw Her back.

And a man without Her could only exist. Indeed, it is impossible to live without Her. Without Her, life lost its meaning, and He took possession of the meaning. He made an ordinary day gray and lifeless, and filled the night with insomnia and nightmares. Man cannot cope with Him himself. Treatment with a psychiatrist, taking strong medications helped for a while. Only She could heal.

She came and carried the light and the future. But it was not so simple with her alone. She completely took possession of a man, and he sometimes followed her at the cost of his life. Own and alien. She triumphed in victory, and the man who drove Him away became Her hostage. And he walked without noticing anything around. And a man came to Her. Then there was loneliness, She quietly melted, and behind this He creeped imperceptibly.

But, fortunately, one by one It is difficult to meet them. So He and She walk together on Earth. Fear and Dream.   And without Fear it's hard to find a Dream. Often it is Fear that gives birth to the Dream. And behind the Dream is always Fear. Fear “what if it doesn’t come true?” Our task is to ensure that Fear does not interfere with the Dream come true, and the Dream defeats Fear.

The parable of the two wolves. Libra

Once upon a time, an old Indian revealed to his grandson a life truth.

- In each person there is a struggle, very similar to the struggle of two wolves. One wolf represents evil - envy, jealousy, regret, selfishness, ambition, lies ... Another wolf represents good - peace, love, hope, truth, kindness, loyalty ...

The little Indian, touched to the core by the words of his grandfather, thought for a few moments, and then asked:

“And which wolf wins in the end?”

The old Indian smiled slightly and answered:

“The wolf you feed always wins.”

Three masons. Aquarius

At the beginning of the XIV century in Central Europe, work was carried out to build a magnificent cathedral. The supervisor was a priest who was assigned to monitor the work of all laborers and artisans.

The priest decided to see how the masons work. He chose three masons as representatives of different positions represented in their profession. He went to the first bricklayer and said:

My brother, tell me about your work.

The mason broke away from work and answered in a broken voice full of anger and indignation:

As you can see, I am sitting in front of a stone slab a meter high, half a meter in length and width. And with every blow of the incisor on this stone, I feel a particle of my life leave. Look, my hands are strained and covered with calluses. My face haggled and my hair turned gray. This work will never end; it goes on forever, day after day. It exhausts me. Where is the satisfaction? I will die long before the cathedral is built.

The monk went to the second bricklayer.

My brother, he said, tell me about your work.

Brother, ”the mason answered in a quiet, calm voice,“ as you can see, I am sitting in front of a stone slab a meter high and a half meter long and wide. ” And with every blow of the incisor on the stone, I feel that I am creating life and the future. Look, I was able to make my family live in a comfortable house, much better than the one where I grew up. My children go to school. No doubt they have achieved more in life than I do. And all this became possible thanks to my work. I give my skill to the cathedral, and he also gives me gifts.

The monk went to the third bricklayer.

Brother, he said, tell me about your work.

Brother, ”the mason answered, smiling broadly, in a voice full of joy. - You see, I'm sitting in front of a stone slab a meter high and a half meter wide. And with every touch of the cutter to the stone, I feel like I'm carving my fate.

Look, you see what beautiful features come out of the stone. Sitting here, I not only embody my skill and my craft, I contribute to what I value and what I believe. The universe reflected in the cathedral will reward each of us.

Here, near this stone, I am at peace with myself, and I know that although I do not see this cathedral completed, it will stand another thousand years, personifying what is true in us, and serving the purpose for which the almighty sent to this earth and me.

The monk left and pondered for a while what he had heard. He fell asleep in a calm sleep, which he had not slept for a long time, and the next day he relieved himself of the authority of the head of work and offered this position to the third mason.

Chickens and swallows. Crayfish

Once the swallows, flying south, sat down to rest on a tree, under which there was a chicken coop. Swallows began to discuss among themselves how good it is in the South, it is so great there! And one chicken was involved in these conversations.

She listened for a long time to the wonderful stories of the swallows, and when they flew away, she thought: “I also want to go south! It would be great to be there. Why am I worse than others? It’s like wings are in place, feathers are and everything is as it should. ”

Then she firmly decided to fly south. All the hens gathered. A huge “support group” was organized, each chicken tried to give practical advice, to cheer up, because this had not happened in their history. The chicken gathered her courage, perched on a fence, turned south and shouted to the whole world:

Go!

And, having caught a fair wind, flew that there are forces. She really wanted to go to the South, so she devoted herself to the flight. So she flew over the neighboring yard, meadow, highway, beyond which no one had yet wandered, and collapsed into the collective farm apple orchard.

And then she saw heaven on earth! Shady spreading apple trees, juicy apples scattered all over, scarecrow, and even she saw the watchman! When she returned, she enthusiastically told the other chickens how things were going.

And then a flock of swallows again sat on a tree, and the swallows spoke again about the South. But now the hens were no longer silent, as usual. When they heard about the sea, rocks and sand, they said:

Wait, wait, what rocks? What kind of sand? What are you carrying? Here we have our own chicken authority! And the famous pilot began, knowingly, half-closing her eyes, talking about the highway, about the garden, about apples and about the guard.

Like this! - said the hens. - Here it is - the South! And what you tell is some kind of deception, nonsense, in which you yourself believe and only fool others! Now we all know ourselves!

The swallows somehow mysteriously smiled and, without saying anything, flew away to "their" South.

True knowledge. Scorpio

Once, a school Teacher came to a very respected Teacher and accused her that her teaching method was completely illogical, that this was some kind of crazy chatter, and in some other things of this kind. The teacher took a gem from her bag. She pointed to the shops of the mall and said:

Take it to the shops selling silverware and watch batteries, and see if you can get a hundred gold pounds for it.

The School Teacher tried everything he could, but he was offered no more than a hundred silver pence.

Great, ”said the Teacher. - Now go to a real jeweler and see what he will give you for this stone.

The school teacher went to the nearest jewelry store and was incredibly surprised when he was suddenly offered ten thousand gold pounds for this stone.

The teacher said:

You tried to understand the nature of the knowledge that I am giving, and my way of teaching is just like the silver traders tried to appreciate this stone. If you want to be able to determine the true value of a stone, become a jeweler.

Creator and soul. Fish

Once upon a time there was a man, and then, as usual, he died. After that he looked around himself and was very surprised. The body lay on the bed, and he only had a soul left. Naked, completely transparent, so that it was immediately clear what was happening.

The man was upset - without the body it became somehow unpleasant and uncomfortable. All the thoughts that he thought floated in his soul, like colorful fish. All his memories lay at the bottom of the soul - take and examine. Among these memories were beautiful and good, such that it was nice to pick up. But there were such that the person himself became scared and disgusted. He tried to shake ugly memories out of his soul, but that didn’t work out. Then he tried to put on top those that are prettier. And he went his appointed way.

God glanced at the man fleetingly and said nothing. The man decided that God in a hurry did not notice other memories, he was delighted and went to heaven - because God did not close the doors in front of him. Some time has passed, it’s hard to even say which one, because where the person went, time went very differently than on Earth. And man came back to God.

Why are you back? - asked God. - After all, I did not close the gates of paradise in front of you.

Lord, said the man, I feel bad in your paradise. I am afraid to take a step - there is too little good in my soul, and it cannot cover the evil. I'm afraid everyone can see how bad I am.

What do you want? - God asked, since he was the creator of the time and had it in abundance to answer everyone.

You are omnipotent and merciful, ”said the man. “You saw through my soul, but you did not stop me when I tried to hide my sins.” Take pity on me, take away from my soul everything bad that is there?

And God took from the human soul all that which he was ashamed of. He took out the memory of betrayal and betrayal, cowardice and meanness, lies and slander, greed and laziness. But, forgetting about hatred, a man forgot about love, forgetting about his falls - forgot about take-offs. The soul stood before God and was empty - more empty than the moment when a person was born.

But God was merciful and put back into the soul everything that filled it. And then the man again asked:

What shall I do, Lord? If good and evil were so merged in me, then where should I go? Really - to hell?

Return to paradise, the Creator answered, for   I have created nothing but paradise. You carry hell with you.

And man returned to paradise, but time passed, and again appeared before God.

Creator! - said the man. “I feel bad in your paradise.” You are omnipotent and merciful. Have mercy on me, forgive my sins.

I was waiting for a completely different request, ”God answered. “But I will do as you ask.”

And God forgave man all that he did. And man went to heaven. But time passed, and he again returned to God.

What do you want now? - asked God.

Creator! - said the man. “I feel bad in your paradise.” You are omnipotent and merciful, You have forgiven me. But I myself can’t forgive myself. Help me?

I was waiting for this request, - God answered. “But this is a stone that I cannot raise.”

Many today try to express their feelings and thoughts in parables. We think that these short parables will not leave you indifferent!

Once a man came to God, he complained about his boring life and said that he was lonely on this beautiful planet. God began to ponder how to create a woman, because he spent all the material on creating a man? God did not want to refuse a man, after reflection, he set about creating a woman and also invented.

He took the bright, beautiful rays of the sun, all the colors of the morning bewitching dawn, the sadness of a brooding moon, the beautifulness of becoming a swan, the tenderness of a playful kitten, the grace of dragonfly, the gentle warmth of gentle fur, the insane attractiveness of a magnet. When all this was gathered into one image, the ideal creation of incredible beauty appeared before him, she was not adapted to life on earth.
To prevent the creature from being cloying, he added the flickering of cold stars, windy inconstancy, tears of clouds, fox cunning, molestation of a fly, shark greed, jealousy of a tigress, aspen vengeance, dope of opium and filled it with life. As a result, the white light appeared, the charm itself, a real sweet woman.
God gave this creation to a man, and urgently said: - Take it as it is, and do not even try to remake it!

Footprints in the sand

Once, one person had a dream, as if he was walking along a sandy shore, and next to him was the Lord. And the man began to remember the events of his life. I remembered the joyful ones - and noticed two chains of footprints in the sand, my own and the Lord's. He recalled misfortunes - and saw only one. Then the man was saddened and began to ask the Lord: “Didn't you tell me: if I follow your path, you will not leave me?” Why, then, in the most difficult times of my life, only one chain of tracks stretched along the sand? Why did you leave me when I most needed you? The Lord replied: “I love you and have never left you.” Just at the time of troubles and trials I carried you in my arms.

Parable of happiness

God blinded a man from clay, and he left an unused piece.
- What else to blind you? - asked God.
“Blind me of happiness,” the man asked.
God did not answer, and only put the remaining piece of clay in the palm of his hand.

Tainu love

Once upon a time there lived an old man. He lived in an old temple.
Often children came to the temple to play. The most mischievous was a boy named Tarot.
Once, when he was playing on the steps of the temple, three sparrows flew to him, and one of them said:
- The greatest thing in this world is the Sun. Thanks to the sun, our world is so beautiful.
But people, accustomed to its light, perceive the sun as a common occurrence.
Hearing this, the second sparrow said:
- No, the greatest thing in this world is water. There is no life without water. But people are so accustomed to its availability that they do not do it justice.
And finally, the third sparrow spoke:
“What you said is true.” Both the sun and water are wonderful gifts. But the most valuable thing on earth, which people don’t even think about, whose generosity does not notice, is air. Without him, we would have perished.
After listening to the conversation of the sparrows, Taro thought for a moment. He never felt grateful to either air, water, or the sun ... The boy ran to the old man and told about what he heard. He was sad that people were so ignorant that little birds were wiser than people.
The old man smiled affectionately and said:
“I congratulate you on your great discovery.” You're right. People overlooked the most important thing in life. But all their mistakes can be forgiven if they learn Love. There are vices in people, but you cannot get rid of them, even having gathered all your will into a fist.
In order to drive out vices, God gave people Love. Only Love and its mysterious power allow people to remain the pinnacle of divine creation.

Only in Love is there perfection, only in Love is development.
Love is the way to God. God does not reveal himself to us; instead of himself, He sends us Love.
Thanks to Love, people forgive each other, perceive each other and create a beautiful world.

Once a person walking along a street accidentally saw a cocoon of a butterfly. For a long time he watched a butterfly trying to get out through a small gap in a cocoon. A lot of time passed, the butterfly seemed to abandon its efforts, and the gap remained all the same small. It seemed that the butterfly did everything she could, and for nothing else she had no more strength.

Then the man decided to help the butterfly: he took a penknife and cut the cocoon. The butterfly immediately came out. But her body was weak and weak, her wings were undeveloped and barely moved. The man continued to watch, thinking that the butterfly’s wings were about to expand and get stronger and she could fly. Nothing happened! For the rest of his life, the butterfly dragged its weak body along the ground, its wings not spread.

She was never able to fly. And all because the person, wanting to help her, did not understand that the effort to exit through the narrow slit of the cocoon was necessary for the butterfly so that the fluid from the body passed into the wings and the butterfly could fly. Life made the butterfly hardly leave this shell so that it could grow and develop.

Sometimes it is the effort we need in life. If we were allowed to live without encountering difficulties, we would be deprived. We could not be as strong as now. We could never fly.

I asked for strength ... and God gave me difficulties to make me strong.

I asked for wisdom: but God gave me problems to resolve.

I asked for wealth: but God gave me the brain and muscles so that I could work.

I asked for the opportunity to fly ... and God gave me obstacles so that I could overcome them.

I asked for love ... and God gave me people whom I could help in their problems.

I asked for blessings ... and God gave me opportunities.

Forgiveness

Ah love! My dream is to be the same as you! - Delightfully repeated Love. You are much stronger than me.
“Do you know what my strength is?” Love asked, shaking her head thoughtfully.
- Because you are more important to people.
“No, my dear, that’s not at all why,” Love sighed and stroked Love on the head. “I can forgive, that's what makes me so.”

Can you forgive Betrayal?
- Yes, I can, because Betrayal often comes from ignorance, and not from malicious intent.
“Can you forgive Treason?”
- Yes, and Treason too, because by changing and returning, the person got the opportunity to compare, and chose the best.
“Can you forgive a lie?”
- A lie is the lesser of evils, a silly girl, because it often happens from hopelessness, self-guilt, or from an unwillingness to hurt, and this is a positive indicator.
- I don’t think so, there are simply lying people !!!
“Of course they do, but they have nothing to do with me, because they don’t know how to love.”
“What else can you forgive?”
“I can forgive Anger, as it is short-lived.” I can forgive Sharpness, as it is often the companion of Grief, and Grief cannot be predicted and controlled, since everyone is upset in his own way.
- And yet?
- I can also forgive Resentment - the older sister of Sorrow, as they often arise from one another. I can forgive Disappointment, since it is often followed by Suffering, and Suffering cleanses.
- Ah, love! You are really amazing! You can forgive everything, everything, but I go out at the first test, like a burnt match! I envy you so much !!!
“And here you are wrong, baby.” No one can forgive all-all. Even love.
“But you just told me something completely different !!!”
“No, what I was talking about, I can actually forgive, and I forgive forever.” But there is something in the world that even Love cannot forgive.

Because it kills feelings, corrodes the soul, leads to Longing and Destruction. It hurts so much that even a great miracle cannot cure it. This poisons the lives of others and makes them go into themselves.
It hurts more than Treason and Betrayal and hurts worse than Lies and Resentment. You will understand this when you come across him yourself.
Remember, Love, the most terrible enemy of feelings - Indifference. Since there is no cure for it.

Somehow souls gathered for a meeting before incarnation to Earth. And God asked one of them:
- Why are you going to Earth?
“I want to learn how to forgive.”

Who are you going to forgive? Look what souls are all pure, bright, loving. They love you so much that they can do nothing
such for which they need to be forgiven. Soul looked at her little sisters, indeed, she loves them unconditionally and they love her as well! The Soul is saddened and says: - And I so want to learn to forgive!
Then another Soul comes up to her and says:
- Do not worry, I love you so much that I’m ready to be with you on Earth and help you experience forgiveness. I will become your husband and I will be you
change, drink, and you will learn to forgive me.

Another Soul comes up and says:
- I also love you very much and will go with you: I will be your mother, punish you, intervene in every way in your life and prevent you from living happily, and you
you will learn to forgive me.
The Third Soul says:
“And I will be your best friend and at the most inopportune moment I will betray you, and you will learn to forgive.”

Another Soul comes up and says:
“And I will become your boss, and out of love for you I will treat you harshly and unfairly so that you can experience forgiveness.”
Another Soul volunteered to be an evil and unjust mother-in-law ...

Thus, a group of souls loving each other gathered, came up with a scenario of their life on Earth for a living experience of forgiveness and
embodied. But it turned out that on Earth it is very difficult to remember Himself about your contract.
Most took this life seriously, began to be offended and angry at each other, forgetting that they themselves had compiled this scenario of life, and
the main thing is that everyone loves each other!

Parable. Why is a woman crying?

The little boy asked his mother: "Why are you crying?"
- Because I'm a woman.
- I do not understand!
Mom hugged him and said: "You will never understand that."
Then the boy asked his father, "Why does mom sometimes cry for no reason?" - "All women sometimes cry for no reason" - all that my father could answer.
Then the boy grew up, became a man, but never ceased to be surprised: "Why do women cry?"
Finally he asked God. And God answered:
"Having conceived a woman, I wanted her to be perfect.
I gave her shoulders so strong to hold the whole world, and so tender to support the baby’s head.
I gave her a spirit so strong as to endure childbirth and other pain.
I gave her free rein so strong that she goes forward when others fall, and she takes care of the fallen and the sick, and the tired, not complaining.
I gave her the kindness to love her children under any circumstances, even if they offend her.
I gave her the strength to support her husband, despite all his shortcomings.
I made her out of his rib so she could protect his heart.
I gave her the wisdom to understand that a good husband never hurts his wife intentionally, but sometimes she feels her strength and determination to become close to him, without hesitation.
And finally, I gave her tears. And the right to shed them where and when necessary.
And you, My son, you need to understand that the beauty of a woman is not in her clothes, hairstyle or manicure.
her beauty in the eyes that open the door to her heart. The place where love lives. "

Two names

A woman is truly happy when she has two names:
the first is Beloved, and the second is Mom.

True love

The daughter once asked her mother how to distinguish true love from fake.
“It's very simple,” said the mother, “... because I love you!” is true love. “I love because ...” is a fake.

Heart

In one village there lived a sage. He loved children and often gave them something, but always these were very fragile objects. The children tried to handle them carefully, but their new toys often broke, and they were very sad. The sage again gave them toys, but even more fragile ones. Once the parents could not stand it and came to him: - You are a wise and kind person, why are you giving fragile toys to our children? They cry bitterly when the toys break. “It will take quite a few years,” the sage smiled, “and someone will give them their heart.” Maybe with my help they will learn how to handle this priceless gift more carefully.

Abortion

Somehow a certain married couple came to the old man.
“Father,” the spouse says, “I expect a child, and we already have four children;” if the fifth is born, we won’t live. Bless to have an abortion.
“I see that it’s not easy for you to live,” the elder answers, “well, I bless you to kill your child.” Just kill the eldest daughter, she’s already fifteen years old: she’s lived in the world, she has seen something, but he hasn’t seen the baby and the little ray of sunshine, it will be unfair to deprive him of this opportunity.
In horror, the woman covered her face with her hands and sobbed.

One couple did not have children, although they had been married for several years. In order not to feel alone, the husband and wife purchased a German shepherd puppy. They loved him and cared for him as their own son. The puppy grew up and turned into a large, beautiful, intelligent dog and more than once saved the property from thieves, was faithful, faithful, loved and protected its owners.
Seven years after the couple took the dog, they had a long-awaited child. Husband and wife were happy, the baby took almost all their time, and the dog did not get almost a drop of attention. The dog felt unnecessary and became jealous of the child to the owners. Once, the parents left their sleeping son in the house, and they themselves made barbecue preparations on the terrace. When they went to see the child, a dog came out of the nursery. His mouth was bloodied, and he wagged his tail pretty.
The father of the child suggested the worst, grabbed a gun and immediately killed the dog. Then he ran into the nursery and on the floor, at the cradle of his son, saw a huge headless snake. “I killed my faithful dog,” the man said, holding back his tears.
How often do we unfairly judge people? Worst of all, we do this without hesitation, without even knowing the reasons why they acted one way or another. We do not care what they thought and felt, it does not bother us. And we do not allow the thought that later, perhaps, we will regret our haste. So next time, condemning someone, we recall this parable of a faithful dog.

Happiness

Happiness ran across the field ... So fast, fun and serene that it did not notice the pit and landed in it. He sits at the bottom of this pit and cries. People learned about this and began to come to the pit to look at this miracle. Happiness fulfilled their desires, and they left, happy and contented. Once a young man walked past this place. He stopped at the edge of the pit and watched for a long time as people make more and more new desires, and then he offered his hand and freed happiness from captivity. “What do you want? I will fulfill your every desire,” asked Happiness. But the young man did not answer, and went on his way. And Happiness ran nearby ...

As soon as the train started, he put his hand out the window to feel the air flow and suddenly cried out in delight:
- Dad, you see, all the trees are going back!
The old man smiled back.
Next to the young man was a married couple. They were a little embarrassed that a 25 year old man was behaving like a small child.
Suddenly the young man cried out again in delight:
“Dad, you see, the lake and the animals ... The clouds travel with the train!”
The couple embarrassedly watched the strange behavior of the young man, in which his father did not seem to find anything strange.
It began to rain, and raindrops touched the hands of a young man. He was again filled with joy and closed his eyes. And then he cried out:
- Dad, it's raining, the water is touching me! See dad?
Wanting at least something to help, a couple sitting nearby asked an elderly man:
- Why do not you take your son to a clinic for a consultation?
The elderly man replied: - We have just come from the clinic. Today my son regained sight for the first time in his life ...

Once upon a time, a wise pilgrim wandered through different lands walked past a clear field towards the temple. In the field, he saw three working people. In this land, the pilgrim had never met anyone, and he wanted to talk with these people. The pilgrim approached the three workers and, wishing to offer his help, turned to the one who looked the most tired and, as the pilgrim seemed, unhappy and even embittered. "What are you doing here?" - the pilgrim asked the question. The first worker, all soiled and tired, with undisguised anger in his voice replied: "What, you see, I’m throwing stones." This answer surprised and upset the pilgrim, and then he turned to the second worker with the same question. The second worker momentarily distracted from his work and said indifferently: "Can't you see? I make money!" For some reason, the pilgrim was dissatisfied with such an answer, and yet, I recall, he was a wise man. Then he went to the third employee to ask the same question. The third worker stopped, laid aside his uncomplicated tool, shook off his hands, bowed to the wanderer and, raising his eyes to the sky, said quietly: "I am building a road to the temple here."

Parable of sins

Two people go to the old man for a confession. The first one committed a grave sin, and now he goes and humbly thinks how to confess. And the second one goes to the old man and argues: here he has a great sin, but I’m going to go, because I am sinning all the little things and have nothing to say. They come to the old man, he looked at them, and the one who committed one big sin, ordered to bring one big stone. And the second one hundred small stones. And when they brought it, the elder said to them: "Now return these stones to the place where you took them." But to return to the place of a hundred stones is much more difficult. This parable is that there are no minor, minor sins, that sin, by its very nature, is always a violation of order.

Price of love

Understand not the one who saw a lot, but the one who lost a lot. Forgive not the one who did not offend, but the one who forgave a lot. Everyone who is unable to condemn will condemn the path to another. Jealous only the one in whose veins, the blood will never boil. And someone else’s pain will not be able to take, who lives to their advantage. And sadness does not bother at night, those who do not know love. And the happiness of the meeting does not know who did not breathe parting. Only the one who loses a lot knows the price!

Parable of God

The hermit came once to a village where there were a lot of unbelievers. He was surrounded by young people who urged him to show where God lives, so deeply revered by him. He said he could do it, but first let him give him a cup of milk.
When the milk was placed in front of him, he did not drink it, and for a long time silently looked at him with ever-increasing curiosity. Young people were impatient, their demands became more insistent. Then the hermit said to them:

Wait a moment; They say that milk contains butter, but in this cup, no matter how I tried, I did not see it.
Young people began to laugh at his naivety.
- You stupid man! Do not make such ridiculous conclusions. Each drop of milk contains oil, and it makes it nutritious. To get and see it, you need to boil milk, cool it, add yogurt, wait a few hours for it to curl, then knock down and remove a piece of butter that appears on the surface.

Ah well! - said the ascetic, - now it is much easier for me to explain to you where God lives. He is everywhere, in every being, in every atom of the Universe, due to which they all exist and we perceive them and enjoy them. But in order to see Him as a real entity, you need to strictly, zealously and sincerely follow the prescribed rules. Then, at the end of this process, you will experience His mercy and His power.

Once upon a time, an old Indian revealed to his grandson a life truth.
- In each person there is a struggle, very similar to the struggle of two wolves. One wolf represents evil - envy, jealousy, regret, selfishness, ambition, lies ... Another wolf represents good - peace, love, hope, truth, kindness, fidelity ...
The little Indian, touched to the core by the words of his grandfather, thought for a few moments, and then asked:
“And which wolf wins in the end?”
The old Indian smiled slightly and answered:
“The wolf you feed always wins.”

Parable. Appreciate each person

Every person who appears in our lives is a teacher! Someone teaches us to be stronger, someone is wiser, someone teaches to forgive, someone - to be happy and enjoy every day. Someone does not teach us at all - just breaks us, but from this we get experience. Appreciate every person, even if he appeared for a moment. After all, if he appeared, then this is no accident!

Parable of love

The young woman was sitting on a park bench and for some reason wept bitterly. At this time, Vanya was riding his tricycle along the alley. And so sorry for his aunt that he asked:

Aunt, why are you crying?

Oh, baby, you won’t be able to understand, ”the woman dismissed.

It seemed to Vanya that after this the aunt began to cry even more. He says:

Aunt, does something hurt you and you cry? Do you want me to give you my toy?

The woman burst into tears even more from these sympathetic words:

Oh, boy, ”she answered,“ nobody needs me, nobody loves me ... ”

Vanya looked seriously and said:

And you surely asked everyone?

Once there were three wanderers. Night caught them on the way. They saw the house, knocked. The owner opened them and asked: “Who are you?”
- Health, Love and Wealth. Let us spend the night.
“Sorry, but we only have one free place.” I’ll go and consult with my family about which of you to let in.
The sick mother said, “Let's let Health in.”
The daughter proposed to let Love in, and the wife - Wealth.
While they were arguing, the wanderers disappeared.

All in your hands

One master had a lot of students. The most capable of them once thought: “Is there a question that our teacher cannot answer?” Then he caught the most beautiful butterfly in the meadow and hid it in his palms. Then he came to the master and asked:
“Tell me, teacher, which butterfly, living or dead, do I hold in my hands?” - He was ready at any moment to squeeze his hands more for the sake of his truth.
Without looking at the student, the master answered: - EVERYTHING IS IN YOUR HANDS.

The Parable of the Brook

Once upon a time there lived a little Brook in the world. He was descending from the mountains into a beautiful green valley. And then one day he ran to the desert. Then he stopped and thought: "But where to run further?" Ahead was a lot of new and unknown, so Brook was scared.
But then he heard the Voice: "Brave! Do not stop there, there is still a lot of interesting things ahead!"
But Brook continued to stand. He wanted to become a big full-flowing river. But he was afraid of change and did not want to take risks.
Then the voice spoke again: “If you stop, you will never know what you are really capable of! Just believe in yourself, and then you can find the right path in any environment! Run on!”
And the trickle decided. He ran through the desert. He was very ill. Unfamiliar places and sweltering heat took away his strength every day. And a few days later it dried up ...
But evaporating, small droplets met high in the sky. They united into one big cloud and sailed further over the desert.
A cloud floated over the desert for a long time, until it reached the sea. And then a brook poured into the sea with numerous drops of rain. Now it merged with the huge sea.
Gently swinging in the waves, he smiled at himself ...
Previously, when he lived in a valley, he could not even dream of such a thing.
Brook thought: "I changed shape several times and only now it seems to me that I finally became myself!"
Do not be afraid of changes and never rest on your laurels. When you overcome yourself, your weaknesses, when you win, you experience an amazing, incomparable feeling of delight, a sense of victory!
Life is so multifaceted that you never know what lies ahead. God does not give trials to a man who is not up to him. So all tests are surmountable.
And what a feeling of joy, happiness fills the one who overcomes them and conquers!
Someone said: "Who does not risk anything, risks everything"

Parable of King Solomon's Ring

The wisdom of King Solomon was infinite, and the wealth in his treasury was also almost infinite. Therefore, when one of the courtiers gave him a golden ring as a gift, the king ordered him to be attributed to the rest of the treasures, without paying special attention to him, and so it was lost among the other riches ...

But once a lean year happened in his country, men and women, children and the elderly died. Then Solomon ordered to take part of the treasures from his treasury and exchange them from the neighboring kingdom for grain in order to feed his people dying of hunger. When the gold was removed, the ring that had been previously presented to him fell from the tray, Solomon picked it up and read the engraved inscription on the outer edge: “Everything passes!”, He put it on his finger and never took it off again, looking at this engraving in difficult moments and in this finding solace.

But his beloved wife died, and Solomon for a long time could not find a place for himself from grief, the ring no longer saved. He removed it, and wanted to throw it into the pond, when another inscription flashed on the inner edge: "And it will pass!".
Already a wise old man, sitting by the pond and watching the sunset, King Solomon twisted a ring on his finger and thought that his life was coming to an end, that everything had already happened ... how important his life was, and whether it meant or. Then he saw the third and last engraving on the narrowest edge of the ring: “Nothing passes!”

Parable Angel

He lived in the old village a hermit hunchback.
They feared him, they didn’t love him,
There were rumors about him that He was an evil sorcerer,
and people bypassed him.

He wandered around the village. He with a decrepit bag.
in a perennial moth-eaten coat.
And if they saw him off with a laugh,
He sighed quietly, no offense, but with pain.

And people scoffed, whispering behind their backs:
his horns are supposedly hidden under a hat,
And because this little lame
that he has hoofs instead of fingers.

Once a misfortune infiltrated a village:
then the wheat shoots will die under the hail,
Then in the summer in July the cold will come
then the wolves will cut the herd on the pasture.

Troubling, tough days have come
they will have a tight winter without grain.
Not knowing what to do, they decided:
"The hunchback is to blame! Death to you, Satan!

Come, let's go to the river soon!
He is there, he lives in an dugout as an exile! "
And moved en masse. And in every hand
a matched stone was clamped on the road.

He walked towards them, sad and quiet,
He already knew everything, He is not stupid, He understood.
And He did not turn, He did not hide from them
and only hid his face in his palms.

Never crying out under a hail of stones
He only whispered: “May the Most High forgive you!
Stones on the body, but the heart hurts.
It doesn’t look like us, it means - it’s evil, then it’s superfluous ... "

The execution is over. Someone said rudely:
"Let's see the ugly back!
I have never seen such a hump! "
He took off his coat all in blood from the dead man.

In a sick curiosity languished hump.
Suddenly silently, like statues, people froze,
“Evil devil”, “Satan” hid instead of a hump,
under the old coat are snow-white wings ...

And past the dugout, looking down,
brutal stupid people go by.
Almighty, perhaps, he will forgive them,
but Angela won't be around anymore ...

Sometimes important things are easier to tell in the form of a fairy tale. So did all the nations of the world, and after a while appeared - parables. Short stories about life with elements of wisdom.

Wise parable "Belief in yourself"

Once upon a time there were little frogs who organized running competitions. Their goal was to climb to the top of the tower.

Many spectators gathered who wanted to look at these competitions and laugh at their participants ...

The competition has begun ...

The truth is that none of the spectators believed that the frogs could climb to the top of the tower.

The following remarks were heard:

“It's too complicated !!
  “They NEVER climb to the top”
  "No chance! The tower is too high! ”

Little frogs began to fall. In sequence…

... Except for those with a second wind, they jumped higher and higher ...

The crowd was screaming anyway “Too hard !!! No one can do it! ”

Even more frogs were tired and fell ... Only ONE rose higher and higher ...
  That one did not succumb !!

In the end, everyone succumbed. Except for that one frog, who, having done his best, climbed to the top!

THEN all the frogs wanted to know how he did it?
One participant asked how did this frog, who got to the top, managed to find strength in himself?

Turns out - the winner was DEAF !!!

Morality:
  Never listen to people who are trying to convey to you their pessimism and negative mood ...

... they rob you of your most cherished dreams and desires. Those that you cherish in your heart!

Do not forget the power of words. Believe in yourself and in your strength! YOU CAN!!!

The Wise Parable of Love - Island of Spiritual Values

Once upon a time on Earth there was an island on which all spiritual values \u200b\u200blived. But once they noticed how the island began to go under water. All valuables boarded their ships and sailed away. Only Love remained on the island.

She waited until the last, but when there was nothing left to wait, she also wanted to sail away from the island.

Then she called Wealth and asked to go to his ship, but Wealth answered: " My ship has a lot of jewelry and gold, for you there is no place».

When the ship of Sadness sailed past, she asked to see her, but she answered her: “ I'm sorry, Love, I'm so sad that I need to always be alone».

Then Love saw the Pride ship and asked for her help, but she said that Love would break the harmony on her ship.

Joy floated nearby, but she was so busy with fun that she did not even hear about the calls of Love.

Then Love completely despaired.

But suddenly she heard a voice somewhere behind: “ Come, love, I'll take you with me". Love turned around and saw the old man. He took her to dry land, and when the elder swam away, Love caught her eye, for she forgot to ask his name. Then she turned to Knowledge:

- Tell me, Knowledge, who saved me? Who was this old man?

Cognition looked at Love:

- It was time.

- Time?   - asked again Love. - But why did it save me?

Knowledge once again looked at Love, then into the distance, where the old man swam:

- Because only Time knows how important Love is in life ...

Parable of Life - King Solomon's Ring

There lived king Solomon. Despite the fact that he was very wise, his life was very hectic. Once he decided to seek the advice of a court sage:

“Help me - a lot of things in this life can drive me crazy. I am subject to passions, and this greatly complicates my life! ”

To which the Sage replied: “ I know how to help you.

Put on this ring - the phrase “THIS WILL PASS!” Is carved on it.

When strong anger or great joy comes to you, just look at this inscription and it will sober you up. In this you will find salvation from passions!«.

Solomon followed the advice of the Sage and was able to find peace. But once, during one of the attacks of anger, he, as usual, looked at the ring, but this did not help - on the contrary, he lost his temper even more.

He tore the ring from his finger and wanted to throw it further into the pond, but suddenly he saw that there was also some kind of inscription on the inside of the ring. He looked closely and read:

« AND THIS WILL ALSO PASS ...«

From time immemorial, people have transmitted valuable experience through thousands of chronicles and stories. Gathering around the wisest person in the family, children adopted the experience and wisdom of life. People all over the world tried to find a teacher or a sage who was able to instruct them. To date, the wisest parables have not lost their relevance and continue to help a person in a difficult situation for him to find wisdom, peace and understanding of life.

What is a parable?

A parable is not just stories about life, but entire instructive stories inherited from our ancestors. The wisest parables were handed down from generation to generation, word of mouth. Each parable is able to completely turn the mind of a person and teach him new things. There is no intricate plot in such stories. Absolutely every person can understand and feel the parable. Sometimes, when making a decision, a person turns to the ancestors' narrative for help and always finds all the answers.

Why are parables needed?

They are the most effective tool for learning and development. Such instructive stories can educate children in spirituality and reveal to them all the laws of life and being. Regardless of the limitations, even the oldest parable can be relevant in the modern world. Some may think that parables are stupid and incomprehensible, but this does not mean that they are bad.

Perhaps the parable that you read does not suit you at all. Parables about life, wise parables, parables about good and evil - all this is a whole complex of instructive stories based on real events. And when a person plunges into his own problems, it is often parables that become a ray of light at the end of the tunnel.

Parables of Good and Evil

The parable of good and evil will help to understand what these two concepts are. And what to choose for a person who stands at the crossroads of the two strongest elements. Often a person thinks that in the modern world only evil conquers, and good is absolutely not appreciated. To draw the right conclusions for yourself, you should turn to the ancient stories of the ancestors.

In time immemorial, an old man decided to tell his grandson a very life story. Here she is.

In the life of every person there is a strong confrontation, similar to the war of two furious wolves. The first wolf carries destructive feelings, such as anger, fear, hatred, jealousy, selfishness and falsehood. The second, on the contrary, is good, peace, hope, love. The little boy became very interested in this story, and he hastened to ask his grandfather what kind of wolf wins in this difficult battle? The wise old man explained to his grandson that it was the wolf whom the man himself feeds and cherishes.

The moral of this parable is very simple: if a person himself tries to develop evil qualities in himself, then it is they that prevail. In fact, a person chooses how to be evil or good. Parables about life are wise and philosophical. They help a person find a bright path.

All the evil done by man remains with him, and the good that is given back is returned to him.

One beggar woman from India baked a couple of cakes every morning. She left one for the family, and gave the second to a casual passerby. She left pastries on the windowsill, and anyone could just come and try the cake. Leaving the cake, the woman began to pray for her son, who left his father's house in search of a new fate. This went on for several months.

Soon, she noticed that every morning a man comes with a hump and takes a cake from the windowsill. He often said to himself: “All the evil that you commit remains with you forever, and good returns three times”, and left. The woman did not hear the slightest kind words. Offended by the hunchback, the poor woman decided to teach him a lesson. She poured poison into the second tortilla, wishing to get rid of the ungrateful guest forever. But as soon as she began to take the cake to the window, her hands trembled. She could not do this and threw the tortilla into the flames. Having prepared a new one, she carried it to the windowsill. As usual, the hunchback came and, having said his words, continued on his way.

Soon, women knocked on the house, her son stood on the threshold. The guy was very thin and dirty. He told his mother that he had almost reached home, but was so exhausted that he fell from exhaustion. A hunchback passing by took pity on him and gave him a cake, and this helped the guy get to the house. Hearing this, the mother's heart trembled.

This parable of good, which clearly shows the laws of nature. People who do good always receive good in return. And those who do evil are surrounded only by evil.

Parables of morality

Wise parables always help a person find the true path. Interesting stories can not leave anyone indifferent. The parable of morality helps a person to feel the truth of being and his own spirituality. Here is one of them.

Not far from the road stood a tree. It was withered and withered. At night, a thief walked along the road, seeing a tree, he was frightened, thinking that the police had come for him. The child, walking near the tree, trembled all over, he thought that this ghost was watching him. The young man, hurrying on a date, thought that the tree is his lover. But in all cases, the tree was just a tree.

The moral of this parable is that everyone sees exactly what is inside him - a reflection of his own inner world.

And here is another parable on this subject.

Once a teacher gathered his students around him, took a sheet of paper and drew a small black dot on it. He asked the guys to tell him what they see. Without thinking twice, the students said they saw the usual black dot. To which the teacher said: “Don't you notice a white sheet? After all, the point is so small, and the white sheet is so big. "

This is exactly what happens in life: a person often pays attention to bad moments. And the fact that in addition to this little blackness is still a lot of good points, he does not see point blank.

And finally, a very small, but no less significant wisdom.

One student asked the sage what he would do if he knew about his fall? The sage, without thinking twice, replied that he would order him to rise again. And so on ad infinitum. After all, only the dead fall and do not rise.

Parables about life

Wise parables about life help not only to know the hidden essence of being, but also to direct a person in the right direction, making you think about the main thing.

The little kid, having lost his herd, got lost. Seeing this, a huge gray wolf chased after him. Turning to the wolf, the kid said: “Listen to the wolf, I understand that I am your prey. But I do not want to just die, I want to dance. Play me on the pipe, and I will dance.” The wolf, without thinking twice, took the pipe and began to play, and the kid began to dance merrily. Hearing the music, the dogs rushed into the forest to save the kid and drove the wolf far, far away. The wolf, turning around, shouted to the kid: "Let me tell you, there is nothing to turn from a hunter into a musician."

The frogs set off in search of a home after their swamp had dried. They stumbled upon a well. One, without thinking twice, jumped down, and the other said: "And if this well dries up, how do we jump out of there?"

The moral of this parable is that you can’t get down to business without thinking.

About Parents

This section of the parables is the most instructive. Often people do not value those who gave them life. The parable of parents will allow a person to rethink his attitude to the closest people in his life.

One fine day, a little boy, returning from school, handed his mother a note from the teacher. The woman took a sheet of paper, began to read and burst into tears. Then she read the contents of the letter to her son. It said that the child is a real genius, that there are no teachers at school who could help develop his talent. Therefore, the boy was given home schooling. Many years later. After the death of a woman, an adult son was already sorting through family archives and saw a letter. After reading it, he wept for several days. It was written there that the boy was recognized as mentally retarded. And they recommended that the mother take her child away from school. This child was Thomas Edison, and by the time he read the letter, he was already a famous inventor.

Wise Christian parables

Wise parables about the Christian life will help readers gain faith and inspiration.

Once an old man was walking in a hot desert and leading a blind old woman. They had neither water nor food. Suddenly, an oasis arises in front of them with a garden of paradise, water and food. At the gates of the garden they meet the nobleman. And he offers the old man to visit his paradise, only a blind old woman has no place in paradise. The old man did not listen and went away from the garden. Soon they came to an old hut. The owner of the house fed and watered the travelers and said: "This is your paradise, people who did not betray their people and did not leave to die are allowed into such a paradise."

Everyday parable

Wise everyday parables arose from the stories of ancestors who found instructive moments during ordinary household activities.

One couple in love moved to live in a new apartment. Each time, hanging up the linen, the woman exclaimed in surprise: "Lord, our neighbor doesn’t know how to wash the linen, she’s constantly gray, not like ours." And so it was repeated all the time. The woman was always surprised and wanted to visit a neighbor and teach her how to wash. One morning, the woman exclaimed: "Dear! Look! She learned how to wash clothes. She has snow-white. She finally learned how to wash."
- "You are mistaken dear. I just washed the window."

There are countless different parables in the world. The wise parables of Omar Khayyam occupy an important niche among all the wisest centuries-old records. Their essence speaks of the greatest experience of the one who created them. There are also wise parables of antiquity, parables in verses and prose and others. In each parable, a person can find a truth that can change his worldview, make him laugh, wonder or cry.
