Once, a famous sadhu renowned for his ability to foresee the future encountered a disciple and foresaw his imminent demise. Concerned, he advised the disciple to spend his remaining days with his parents, urging him to cherish every moment.
Months later, to the sadhu's surprise, the disciple returned to the ashram alive and well. Intrigued, the sadhu inquired about his journey. The disciple recounted how, on his way home, he came across a colony of ants struggling in a stream. Moved by compassion, he used a stick to rescue them, saving them from being swept away. Realizing the profound impact of the disciple's act of kindness, the sadhu understood how it had altered the disciple's fate, granting him a longer life.
This powerful lesson showcased the transformative potential of selfless deeds and the ability to rewrite one's destiny through acts of compassion.
