The Five Precious Crystals - - - - - cont.....d

Ref:- "The Five Precious Crystals!"

The crystals are all down..., and yes.., what the father said was true.., without those crystals one is never going to succeed in life.

And the boy was right too..., because just one of those crystals remained after the experiment..,

I may have forsaken the success that I could have attained in my life.., but I have gained the true happiness that arises from knowing the truth.., and to me the four shattered crystals are nowhere near the worth of the one that I have in my hand now.

I am happy that I let go of all the crystals.., so that I could pick out the only one that is true. Success in terms of material wealth is not what I was after.., and I don't define success in terms of material wealth either. The comment by Jesus on a rich man entering the heavens being difficult than a camel passing through a needle hole is amazingly true..., and the contradiction is a difficult one to compare and contrast.
