ЁЯФ╢ In the course of their stroll in the royal gardens, king Vikramaditya suddenly remarked to the great poet Kalidas: тАЬHow creative and talented you are! You are a litterateur par excellence. I wish God had given you a matching and handsome bodyтАЭ. The satire was not lost on the wise Kalidas. He did not say anything at that time. On return to the palace, he ordered for two pots, one of clay and the other of gold. Both were filled with water.
ЁЯФ╖ After some time, Kalidas asked the king. тАЬNow tell us, which of the two waters is coolerтАЭ? тАЬThat of the clay potтАЭ, replied Vikramaditya. A smiling Kalidas then said: тАЬJust as coolness does not depend on the potтАЩs outer shell; even so, talent too is unrelated to the physical appearance of the body. O King! One should look at the inner qualities, not the external beauty. It is the beauty of the soul that is supreme. Learning and greatness are linked with the soul, not the body.
ЁЯФ╢ Happiness always looks small while you hold it in your hands, but let it go, and you learn at once how big and precious it is.
