A Young monk asked his master, "How to control one's mind?"
The master took his disciple for a walk ,and came upon a fast flowing rivulet. One its bank stood a pretty young woman contemplating as to how to cross the rapid rivulet. The master with the least hesitance picked her up, waded across the rivulet and set her down and continued to walk.
After pondering over the incident, the young monk asked his master about what he has done, since monks were not allowed to touch women.
The master replied "You see, I carried her only across six feet of water. But you have been carrying her through several miles we have travelled since then!"
