What is Love asked the Student of the Teacher.




A curious student one day asks a teacher, "What is love?"

The teacher said, "In order to answer your question, please go to the wheat field and choose the biggest wheat you can find and come back with it. But the rule is: you can go through the field only once and cannot turn back to pick any of the ones that you have previously passed."


The student went to the field, went through first row, he saw one big wheat, but he wondered…"Maybe I will find a bigger one later".


Then he saw another bigger one he thought…"Maybe there is an even bigger one!"


Later, when he finished more than half of the wheat field, he started to realize that the wheat is not as big as the previous one he saw, he realizes at this point that he has missed the biggest one and best, and he regretted not getting it.


So, he sadly went back to the teacher empty handed.


The teacher told him, "..this is love.. you keep looking for a better one, but later you realize that you have already missed the person somewhere in the past."


"What is marriage then?" the student asked.


The teacher said, "in order to answer your question, go to the corn field and choose the biggest corn and bring it back to me. But the rule is: you can go through the field only once and cannot turn back to pick any of the ones that you have previously passed."


The student went to the corn field, this time he is careful not to repeat the previous mistake. When he reaches the middle of the field, he chose one medium sized corn that he felt satisfied with, and he then took it back to the teacher.


The teacher told him, "this time you bring something back.. and you have made a wise choice, you looked for one that is just nice, and you have faith and believe this is the best one for you to get.. this is marriage."
