WHY NOT THROUGH A MAN?

IT is God Himself who plays about as human
beings. If God can be worshipped through a clay
image why not through a man?
Once a merchant was shipwrecked. He floated to
the shore of Ceylon, where Vibhishana was the
king of the monsters. Vibhishana ordered his
servants to bring the merchant to him. At the sight
of him Vibhishana was overwhelmed with joy and
said: "Ah! He looks like my Rama. The same
human form!" He adorned the merchant with
robes and jewels, and worshipped him. When I
first heard this story, 1 felt such joy that I cannot
describe it.
