Remember there is a famous proverb in Hindi. An
elephant has two sets of teeth. one to show and the other to eat.
Similarly there are many who show something to the
world but are very different from within.
The adages ‘All that glitters is not gold’ &
‘Good things come in small packages but bullshit comes in bulk” are very true
in the material world.
Examples are:
Huge iron boxes and lockers along with many
enormous and muscular guards are required to protect a few tiny pieces of
jewelry or precious stones.
Lot of thorns are needed to guard a few roses. Even
here the roses have a short fruitful life but the thorns remain for eternity.
Literally tons of mud and gallons of water are
needed to grow a few lotus flowers.
An organization has just a few managers but
thousands of workers.
The Howrah bridge in Kolkatta, India is known more
for its huge scaffolding than the actual bridge which is tiny compared to the
actual scaffolding.
A company is known by its showroom but actually it
is its workshop or factory that matters. The showroom is just a tip of the
iceberg.
