NEITHER 'YES' NOR 'NO'!

THE husband of a young girl has come to his
father-in-law's house and is seated in the drawingroom
with other young men of his age. The girl
and her friends are looking at them through the
window. Her friends do not know her husband
and ask her, pointing to one young man, "Is that
your husband?" "No," she answers, smiling. They
point to another young man and ask if he is her
husband. Again she answers, "No." They repeat
the question, referring to a third, and she gives the
same answer. At last they point to her husband and
ask, "Is he the one?" She says neither yes nor no
but only smiles and keeps quiet. Her friends realize
that he is her husband.
One becomes silent on realising the true nature of
Brahman.
