This short story is about spiritual masters, their ability to feel other people's and the world's pain, and their never-ending passion and commitment to end all of the sufferings that we see in the world. A story that can awaken us to do our part to proactively feel the pain of the world and empower us to do something about it even if it's just allowing ourselves to feel the pain and hold space for it.

There once was a man,

A spiritual master,

That had a son.

And he promised his son that when the day would come that he would need to leave this world,

He promised him that he would come back in a vision or a dream and would tell him what the world of truth really looks like.

The day had come,

The father passed away,

A week went by,

A month,

Almost a year,

And to the disappointment of the son,

He did not receive any visit from his father,

Either dream or vision.

In his disappointment,

He turned to one of the father's best friends and study partner,

And told him,

My dad promised me that he would come back and give me a report on how the upper world really looked like.

The master and friend of the father said,

Yes,

As a matter of fact,

He promised me the same thing and I haven't heard from him anything.

So what I did,

Said the friend and the spiritual master as well,

I used many of my powerful secret techniques,

Meditations and intense prayers to go visit him.

I looked for him.

I went up to heavens.

I looked through all the spiritual chambers.

I met many other spiritual masters on my journey.

I asked them,

Have you seen my friend?

So and so.

They all said the same thing.

Said yes,

He was here,

But he moved on.

And I found another chamber.

Even in the garden of Eden,

I was looking and they all told me the same thing.

Yes,

He was here,

But he had moved on.

Until I came to a group of angels that at least could point me into a direction.

They said,

Yes,

Indeed,

He was here and he moved on to a place that we're not so sure you even want to go there.

And I begged them and pleaded with them,

Said,

Okay,

There is a very dark forest with very strange things that one can hear there.

It doesn't feel good,

But he went into that direction.

We don't know really where he is,

But that's where he went.

That's where we last saw him.

So we thanked him.

He ran quickly into that direction.

And indeed,

He found that forest,

Went inside and immediately felt a little bit uneasy.

Indeed he heard these wailing sounds.

Didn't know where they're coming from,

But he decided to have to find my friend and he kept on going.

He passed the forest.

And indeed he saw his friend standing there by a cliff,

Not moving,

Nor his body,

Neither his neck,

Didn't even turn around.

His friend got closer,

Said,

What are you doing here?

Still didn't look at him.

Kept staring into one direction and he asked his friend,

Do you know what this is pointing off the cliff where there was a vast ocean?

He said,

It's water.

It's an ocean.

His friend said,

It's not like any other ocean.

And indeed he could hear now that these sounds and this wailing and this crying is actually the waters in the ocean.

And he told him,

This my friend,

Is the accumulation of all the tears that humanity has ever shed.

And I wanted to come and visit you,

But the moment I came here and I started to hear this crying and I found this place and I've seen all the tears and the pain that exists here of all humanity.

I pleaded with the creator and I'm still pleading and I made the promise to the creator.

And I said,

I'm not moving from this place until the ocean of tears is drying out.

I'm not moving from this place until all the waters,

The tears of humanity is drying up.
