Hafiz was a satisfied farmer living with his family in Africa. One day, his friend visited him and explained the value of Diamond. The friend said,"Even if you have a little bit of diamond, you'll be able to buy this whole village."
That night, Hafiz could not sleep. He kept on thinking only if he could find diamond....
Hafiz sold his house and everything and went with his family in search of diamond. He travelled all over the world. He started to get tired and frustrated and died on the journey.
Back home, one day, when the buyer of the property was fetching water from the stream in the property, he saw some Twinkling Stones. He picked it up and sent for the test. To his amazement, the twinkling stones were diamonds! the property was full of diamond!
Human beings also die in search of things which they already have inside them. Diamonds are always hidden inside, but Hafiz went in to search outside and could not find.
हिरा
हाफिज आफ्नो परिवारका साथ कृषकका रुपमा संतुस्ट जीवन बाचिरहेका थिए। एकदिन उसको एकजना साथीले उसलाई हिराको मूल्य र महत्व बारेमा बयान गरेछ। साथीले भन्यो,"तिमीले एक टुक्रा मात्र हिरा पायो भने पनि यो सबै गाउँ नै किन्न सक्छौ।"
त्यस रात हाफिज सुत्न सकेन। रातभरी सोचिरह्यो एक टुक्रा हिरा भेट्टायो भने त…।
हाफिजले आफ्नो घर सम्पति बेची आफ्नो परिवारसंग हिरा खोज्नलाई निस्क्यो। सारा संसार घुम्यो। समय, जवानी, स्वास्थ्य र पैसा सबै सकियो। निरास भै खोजी कै क्रममा हाफिजको ईह लीला समाप्त भयो।
उता हाफिजको घरमा, उसको घर किन्ने नया मालिक एकदिन, इनारमा पानी लिन लाग्दा केहि टल्केको पत्थर देख्यो। त्यो पत्थर जाँच्न पठाउदा, हिरा पो रहेछ ! त्यो जग्गा त हिराले भरिएको रहेछ।
हाफिजले आफ्नै पैताला मुनि रहेको हिरा खोज्न सारा संसार डुल्यो तर निराशा बाहेक केहि पाएन। भित्र लुकेर बस्ने हिरालाई बाहिर खोजेर कहा पाइन्छ र ? मानव जीवनमा पनि यहि लागू हुन्छ। भित्रि यात्रा नगरी बाहिरी यात्रा मात्र गरी कहिले पनि तृप्ति हुन सकिन्न।
