[00:01.74]Gold and Diamond黄金与钻石
[00:04.38]A long time ago,
[00:07.09]in Egypt lived a famous mystical person named Zun-Nun.
[00:11.25] A young man came to visit him and asked
[00:14.75] "Teacher, I do not understand why people like you when you dress in such a simple way?”
[00:20.44]The mystic only smiled and took his ring from one of his fingers, and said
[00:26.57]"Young friend, I will answer your question,
[00:29.08]but first do one thing for me,
[00:31.71] take this ring and go to the market across this street,
[00:35.53] can you sell this for one chip of gold ?”
[00:38.70]Looking at Zun-Nun’s dirty ring,
[00:41.22] the young man became doubtful,
[00:43.19]"One chip of gold?
[00:45.15] I am not sure this ring could be sold at that price."
[00:48.43]The Young man went to the market quickly.
[00:51.39] He offered the ring to the textile,
[00:53.80]vegetable, meat, fish traders, and the others.
[00:57.62] The fact is that no body was willing to pay for a chip of Gold.
[01:02.77] He went back to Zun-Nun’s residence and reported
[01:06.60]"Teacher, nobody’s brave enough to offer more than one chip of silver."
[01:11.62]With a wise smile Zun-Nun said,
[01:14.14] "Now go to the Gold Shop at the back of this street
[01:17.42]and show this to the owner or to the gold trader.
[01:20.81]Don’t give your price; just listen how much he will pay for this ring."
[01:25.51]The Young man went to the shop mentioned
[01:28.36]and returned with a different expression on his face.
[01:32.08] He then reported
[01:33.83]"Teacher, the traders in the market really didn’t know the value of this ring,
[01:38.64] the gold trader offered this ring for one thousand of gold,
[01:43.03]and the value of this ring was one thousands times
[01:46.53]from what the traders in the market offered. ”
[01:49.26]Zun-Nun just smiled subtly 1 and spoke 2 softly,
[01:52.55]"That was the answer of your question, my friend.
[01:55.06]Someone cannot be valued only from his dress.
[01:58.90]The traders in the market give value like that but not for ‘The gold trader’.”
[02:04.20]The gold and diamond inside someone only could be seen and valued
[02:08.68]if you could look at the inner soul.
[02:10.87]It needs heart to see,
[02:12.84] and it needs a process.
[02:14.81] We cannot see it from the words or attitude.
[02:17.76]Many a time what we think is a gold,
[02:21.04]is only a brass 3 but a brass is a gold.
