Hate and jealousy

There was a poor man who meditated long and hard for years and years and one day he heard a spiritual voice. The voice said 'ask for anything and your wishes will be fulfilled'. The poor man was overjoyed, then the voice was feeling generous and said 'not only will your wish be fulfilled, but your neighbour will get double everything you ask for'. The poor man said 'that's fine with me as long as I get what I want it doesn't make any difference what my neighbour get'.

So he asked for his first wish, 'I'm sick of living in this little hut, I want a beautiful palace' Lo and behold a palace appeared, he was very happy then he noticed that his neighbour had received 2 palaces. The poor man thought 'all these years I've been meditating long and hard, I should get all the rewards and my neighbour should get nothing. He spent all his time enjoying himself while I was being a hermit - he deserves nothing.' Jealousy and hate was welling up inside.

. He asked the voice,' I want you to build a moat around my palace'. A moat appeared in front of his palace and 2 moats appeared around the neighbours' palaces. The poor man was fuming - jealousy was eating him away. Then he thought I'll teach my neighbour a lesson. He said to the voice ‘ I want you to take back everything and remove one of my eyes' He chuckled to himself as only one of his eyes would be lost but his neighbour would be totally blinded! He became poor again and blind by one eye

Moral : No matter how much we pray and meditate it's all in vain if we haven't cleaned away the 5 enemies (Anger, ego, lust, greed and attachment).
