Two monks were on their travels. One day they came to a river.
There was a young woman with beautiful clothes. Apparently they wanted to cross the river, but since the water was very deep, they could not cross the river without damaging their clothes.
went without hesitation, one of the monks on the woman who lifted her on his shoulders and waded with her through the water. On the other side of the river he placed it on dry.
After the other monk was also waded through the river, the two continued their walk.
began after about an hour at which a monk to criticize the other, "You know, that what you did not was correct, right? You know, we may have no close contact with women. How violation could you of this rule "
The monk who had carried the woman across the river, listened to the accusations of the other calmly Then he answered." I have sold the woman an hour on the river - why You carry it around with you still? "
