There is a story of a mureed who was known to be a great devotee of his murshid. After the death of his teacher a great sage came to that village where he lived, and people began to talk all around the village, saying that so great is the power of this sage that coming into his presence would make a person liberated from all his sins. This man who was most spiritually inclined was the first expected to visit this sage. But everybody from the village come to greet the sage except this one. They are all wondering why it is so, that the man who is really deep in the idea is the very man who has not come. So the sage went himself there, and asked this young man; "What was the matter that you did not come to see me? Everyone talked about you, and I was eager to make your acquaintance. Is there any antipathy you have for me, or what is it?"
