This reminds me of a great sage in our tradition whose name was Ribhu. He was known
as Ribhu Maharishi. Ribhu had a disciple, a wayward disciple, whose name was
Nidhaaga. Ribhu Maharishi had a very special love for this particular disciple, but this
disciple was a little wayward, not as focused as the others. So naturally, among the
disciples there was a little problem: 'Nidhaaga is so unfocused, but why is the guru so
loving to him, and not to us?' There was a problem going on. These things always
happen because a guru is somebody who is not looking at you for what you are today; he
is looking at you for what you are capable of tomorrow. What is the possibility that you
carry within you? What you have done till now is of no importance to him. What you are
today is of some importance to him, but what you can be tomorrow is of utmost
importance to him.
Nidhaaga left Ribhu Maharishi and went away. Ribhu Maharishi made trips to see his
disciple wherever he was. But Nidhaaga was not too receptive. So Ribhu always went in
disguise just to see his disciple and to bless him, to guide him.
One day, Ribhu Maharishi dressed himself as a village rustic and went where Nidhaaga
was. A king's procession was passing by on the street. Nidhaaga was intently watching
the procession. So Ribhu Maharishi, disguised as a rustic, went and stood beside
Nidhaaga and asked, 'What are you looking at?'
Nidhaaga looked at him in disdain, thinking to himself, 'Everybody is looking at the
procession; this fool doesn't even know what we are looking at.'
He said, 'I'm looking at the king's procession.'
Ribhu Maharishi asked, 'Where is the king?'
'Can't you see? He's sitting on the elephant.'
'Oh, but which one is the king?'
Now Nidhaaga got really angry and he said, 'Can't you see, you fool? The man who is
sitting above is the king; the animal below is the elephant.'
'Oh, what is this above and below? I don't understand.'
Now Nidhaaga became really furious. He said, 'You fool, you do not know what is
above and below? It looks like what you see and what you hear doesn't seem to get into
you. You need some action.'
He bent Ribhu Maharishi forcefully down and stood on his shoulders. 'Now do you see?
Now I am above, you are below; I am the king, you are the animal. Did you get it?'
