There was an old merchant. He was as much a miser as he was rich.
His only mission in life seemed to be hoarding money.

One morning he saw a mendicant approaching him. at once he came
forward with his usual plea : " I have nothing to give you now. Come
later.."

"I have not come here to take anything from you, but to give you
this Needle, Please keep this and return it to me when you are
born again.".. said the mendicant.

The merchant laughed and said, " Are you Mad? How can I
carry your Needle to my next birth?"

"No!!" exclaimed the mendicant. "I thought that you must be
knowing some secret of carrying things to your next birth. Otherwise
how do you justify devoting all your time to hoarding money
knowing that you are already old and when you die you cannot
carry your things with you?.."

The mendicant sighed and went away. The merchant stood
thoughtful for long. His conduct changed.
He began spending his money for good causes...
