The teacher was teaching his students by the side of a pond when an old man came walking
towards him. He seemed to be a traveler. His clothes were rumpled and his shoes were torn.
He listened for a while, then said: "This book What am I?"
The teacher gently replied: "Hazrat! There is something in this handwritten book that you do
not know."
"
The elder said: "Show me." Then he took the book in his hand and threw it into the tank full of water.
The teacher was worried. He turned to Rohan and said: "What have you done, Hazrat?
You have wasted all my hard work."
The elder said: "Hey, why are you crying? Go stay."
After saying this, he put his hand in the tank, took out the book, and put it in the teacher's hand.
The book was dry as before.
The teacher was surprised, and asked: "Hazrat did this?"
The elder said: "Mian! This is what you don't know." Saying this, the elder disappeared from sight
while walking fast and the teacher remained standing.
When he regained his senses, he ran back and hugged them.
