Didn't someone post a story here recently about a group of "learned

Brahmins" who went ashore on a remote island and taught a group

of "simple people" how to worship God "correctly"? The people were

so filled with devotion for God and so filled with longing for the

Truth and the Brahmins felt puffed up with their own importance as

they corrected the pronunciation of the "simple people". Then, as

the Brahmins pulled away from the shore in their wooden boat, a

group of the simple island people came running across the water

saying, "wait! wait! we have forgotten the proper pronunciation of

the Beloved God's name...please tell us the correct way once again"
