Video Information: Acharya Prashant speaking at a Shabdyog session at AdvaitBodh Sthal, Delhi on 21st September 2016<br /><br />Story: There was once a holy man who lived in a state of ecstasy, but was regarded by everyone as insane.<br />One day, having begged for food in the village, he sat by the roadside and began to eat when a dog came<br />up and looked at him hungrily. The holy man then began to feed the dog; he himself would take a morsel,<br />then give a morsel to the dog as though he and the dog were old friends. Soon a crowd gathered around<br />the two of them to watch this extraordinary sight.<br />One of the men in the crowd jeered at the holy man. He said to the others, "What can you expect from<br />someone so crazy that he is not able to distinguish between a human being and a dog?"<br />The holy man replied, "Why do you laugh? Do you not see Vishnu seated with Vishnu? Vishnu is being<br />fed and Vishnu is doing the feeding. So why do you laugh, oh Vishnu?"
