Hell and Heaven
Once a warrior
asked a monk: "What is the difference between heaven and hell?"
The monk
replied: "You ignorant brute, you are nothing but a savage. Why would I
waste my time on you?"
Filled with
anger and hatred, the warrior started beating the monk.
After a few
minutes, the warrior realized what a heinous act he was committing and stopped.
The monk smiled
and said: "That fit of anger is hell".
The warrior was
so ashamed of his violent act that he begged the monk to forgive him.
The monk again
smiled and said: "Your asking for forgiveness is heaven".
