A man flying

in a hot air balloon realizes that he is lost. He spots a person on the ground, reduces his altitude, and

shouts:
"Hey! Can you tell me where I am?"

The man below replies:
"Yes, as a matter of fact I can.

You are in a hot air balloon floating in the sky."

The balloonist says:
"Hmmm... you must be a spiritual

teacher of some sort."

"Why do you say that?" replies the man.

"Well," says the balloonist, "what you

told me is true enough, but it's of no use at all."

The man below says, "Well then, you must be a spiritual

seeker."

"I guess I am" replies the balloonist, "but how did you know?"

"Well," says the man, "you

don't know where you are, or where you're going, but you expect me to be able to help you. You're in the same

position you were in before we met, but now somehow it's my fault."

Perfect! :rofl: And so true.

Probably the most enlightening thing you've posted yet.
