Milarepa had searched everywhere for enlightenment, but never found an answer, until one day he saw an old man slowly coming down a mountain path, carrying a heavy bag on his shoulder. Milarepa knew at once that this old man knew the secret, after he had sought for so many years of despair.
"age tell me what you know. What Is Enlightenment?"
The old man looked at him, smiling, then he let slip his heavy burden from his shoulder and sat up.
"Yes, I see!" cried Milarepa. ! My eternal gratitude, but please allow me one more question: What comes after the Enlightenment
Again the old man smiled, bent down and lifted his heavy bag again. He put him on the shoulder, adjusted the load and went his way.
