Imperfection

 

Shrii Shrii Anandamurti asked his disciples one day about two well known yogis both of whom achieved Moksa, Liberation, the highest state of Enlightenment. One of them followed all the rules. The other fell because of some human weakness but still achieved the goal. He then asked which of the two was greater.  Everyone in the room replied that the one who followed all the rules was greater.  Anandamurti differed.  He said the one who fell, got up and reached the goal was greater.  My human-ness, my fragility reminds me that falling isn't what it's all about.
