“One day,  a  pickpocket thief  and  a Saint  (one who was fully enlightened)  met each other on a street.   Each one looked at the other.   What did the  pickpocket  see when he looked?   He saw only the pockets  that he might steal from.   And what did the  Saint see when he looked?   He saw  …  only another  Saint.   In his eyes,  the whole world was always  full of  light.”
