Strengh of patience
This incident happened in sant Eknaath's life. Sant Eknaath and his wife are considered as the couple who are not at all getting angry.
One day, a man came to Sant Eknaath's house. He started abusing Eknaath. If there is any other person , they would have scolded the person who is abusing them coming to their house. There would have been a big fight. But in this case, nothing happened.
Eknaath and his wife were busy in their daily work as this person went on abusing. They didnt say anything. The person abusing took a break. That time it was almost midday. So, Eknaath came near the man and said gently " You are talking since morning. You must have felt tired. Now,its lunch time. Please have meal with us. Then you can continue your work."
The other person agreed for that. Eknaath gave water to him to clean his hands. Then all of them sat for lunch. When Eknaath's wife started serving the meal, this person sat on her back in a fraction of second. Everyone present there were aghast by seeing this.
Eknaath was cool. He said to his wife ," Be careful. Child sat on back. See that he must not hurt himself " .Hearing this, Eknaath's wife replied " Dont worry. Our son also done the same thing while i was serving the meal. I wiill take care".
By hearing this, The person who had come to Eknaath's house with purpose of abusing him, felt ashamed. Then he got down from the back, begged pardon from Eknaath couple. He had come to check Eknaath's ability of tolerate anything.
Thus, Eknaath controlled his anger and kept patience through out this incident.
