Sai news

Once upon a time a man had heard, that in a foreign place, far away, there was a

holy flame burning. So he got up and left his home to find the holy flame and

bring some of its light back home to his house. He thought: 'When I have this

light, then I will have happiness and life and all the people I love will have

it too.'

He travelled far, far away and finally found the holy flame, with which he lit

his light. On his way back he had only one worry: 'That his light could go

out.'

On his way home he met someone who was freezing and didn't have any fire and who

begged him to give him some of his fire. The man with the light hesitated for a

moment. Wasn't his light too precious, too holy to be given away for something

ordinary like that? Despite these doubts, he decided to give some of his light

to the one who was freezing in the darkness.

The man continued his journey home and when he had almost reached his house a

terrible thunderstorm started. He tried to protect his light from the rain and

the storm, but at the end his light went out.

To return the long way back to the place where the holy flame was burning was

impossible, he wouldn't have had enough strength to go back this far - but he

was strong enough to return to the human being whom he had helped on his way

home.

..........and with his light he could light his own again.
