Sufi Wisdom
No Mistakes. Only Lessons to Learn
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once upon a time Nasrudin and his master went hunting in the forest. The
master cut his thumb while shooting his bow and arrow because he held it
incorrectly. Nasrudin stopped the bleeding and bandaged the deep wound as
his master moaned in pain. In an attempt to console his master, Nasrudin
said. "Sir, there are no mistakes, only lessons, and we can learn from them
if we're willing."
The master became enraged. "How dare you lecture me!" he barked. And with
that he threw Nasrudin into a deserted well and continued on without his
devoted servant.
A little further on, a group of forest people captured the master and
took him to their chief for human sacrifice. The fire was roasting hot,
and the master was about to be thrown into it when the chief noticed his
bandaged thumb and set him free. It was a rule that all sacrificial
victims had to be perfect specimens. Realizing how right Nasrudin had
been, the master rushed back to the well to rescue his faithful servant.
Acknowledging his unjust actions, the master pulled Nasrudin out and asked
him to forgive him for the terrible mistake.
Nasrudin assured him that he had not made a mistake at all. On the
contrary, he insisted that there was another lesson concealed here.
Nasrudin told his master that he had done Nasrudin a great service by
throwing him into the well. He thanked his master for saving his life
explaining that if he had continued with him into the forest, the forest
people would have taken him for sacrifice and surely he would have died” You
see," Nasrudin ventured, "there are no mistakes, only lessons to
learn. What we call our mistakes can be blessings in disguise, if we're
willing to learn from them." This time the master smiled and nodded in
agreement.
