A Farmer’s Dream
A farmer claimed that he dreamt of a mountain made of salt that dissolved with a single tear. The court laughed.
Birbal’s Poetic Truth
“That mountain,” he said, “is our burden of sins. One tear of repentance dissolves it.”
Akbar’s Realization
“Then may I learn to cry for the right things,” he whispered.
Lesson to Be Learned
A single tear from a repentant heart can attract the mercy of the Lord. Kṛṣṇa does not weigh past wrongs if the soul sincerely turns to Him. Real crying is not for loss of wealth, but for separation from the Divine.
