One day the guru was explaining the following passage from the Upanishads:“No husband is loved by his wife for his own sake but it is all for the sake of the Self……….No sons are loved by their father for their sake but is all for the sake of the Self that the sons become dear to him.”At that stage, Rahul intervened and said, “Sir, in my case, both my parents and my wife love me so dearly for my own sake that if I am delayed by a few minutes in reaching home they get highly agitated and if something happens to me they will die.” The Guruji said, “You shall learn the truth of it tomorrow when you see the result of a test I am going to hold. Before going to bed tonight you must swallow this herbal powder. As a result, you will lie as if dead tomorrow morning but you will be able to hear all that is spoken in your presence.

So our drinking the water is out of question”. Rahul’s young wife also said, “I am very young and have not seen anything of this world yet. When such old people, who have seen life in its fullness, do not want to die how can you expect me to volunteer for death?”A bright idea flashed into the mind of the father who told the Guruji, “Sir, you are a renunciate and have to relatives to mourn your death.
