I and my Book collection 😤

I called on my friend at his palatial house yesterday. He showed me his library. It was a big hall stacked with books on a diversity of subjects. He told me egoistically “ See my book collection. I have read all these books.” Well Ego is brutal and needs to be nipped in the bud.I sarcastically told him “ Even a Donkey carries an Emperor’s clothes . That does not mean it has become an Emperor. Instead of collecting books , please collect the thoughts in these books.” This visit was indeed fruitful for me in terms of imbibing wisdom. I returned home and started reading the Bhagavad Gita to become wise.”
