Two monks walking along a path came across a beautiful girl with a lovely dress unable to cross the flooded path. The first monk picked up the beautiful girl and carried her across to the other side. The other Monk was shocked and surprised because they had taken a vow not to touch a woman. Many miles later the other monk still silent from the encounter was asked by the first monk, “What is wrong?” The other monk reminded the first monk of his vow. The first monk said, “I let her go many miles ago. Why are you still carrying her?”
