AspectSummary
(a) King’s problemThe king believed that he would never fail if he knew three things: the right time to begin everything, the right people to listen to, and the most important thing to do. He wanted answers to these three questions.
(b) Attempts made to find a solutionHe announced a great reward for the answers. Many learned men came, but they gave different answers and none convinced him. So he went in simple clothes to a wise hermit in the forest, who silently went on digging.
(c) ClimaxWhile the king was digging, a bearded man came running with a deep stomach wound. The king dressed his wound and saved him. Next morning the man confessed he was the king’s enemy who had come to kill him, and begged forgiveness.
(d) SolutionThe hermit explained that the most important time is now, the most important person is the one we are with, and the most important thing is to do that person good.
(e) MessageLive in the present, give full attention to the person in front of you and do good to others, because that is the purpose of life. Kindness can even turn an enemy into a friend.
