-a merchant sees a sage and asks him addressing him with the title of a noble sheikh to tell him in what should he invest-the seer gives him a wise advice of buying cotton and iron which the merchant follows and finds it was a profitable investment
-next time the arrogant merchant sees the sage he asks him again this time calling him with a different title of mad man to tell him in what should he invest
-the sage tells him coolly to this time invest in onions and water melons
-blindly following the suggestion the arrogant man finds it was a loss he bought and returns to the sage to give him an explanation why he gave him wrong advice
-the sage explained when the merchant asked the wise man he got a wise sound advice
-when the merchant enquired the madman he got a mad suggestion
-the sage could not take the burden of his profit or loss , it was his action shaped by his destiny that he chose to take the course to grow , the seed he selected produced the fruit of the action
