In India, in a certain temple, a man was seen distributing sweets. Somebody came and asked what the cause of this rejoicing was. The man said that he had lost his horse. They said, "Well, you have lost a horse and you are rejoicing?" He said, "Misunderstand me not. I have lost a horse but saved the rider. My horse was stolen by a band of robbers. I was not riding the horse at the time the horse was taken. Had I been mounted on the horse, I might also have been stolen. I am thankful that I was not stolen with the horse and that it was only the horse that was stolen." That man has a valid reason to rejoice, for he has discovered the truth that what is actually being lost is the rider (his soul as horseman) and he must raise a hue and cry to save it.
