NAME:
The master leads his apprentice through the forest. Though older walked with equal footing, while his apprentice slips and falls all the time.
The blasphemous apprentice gets up and spits on the treacherous ground and continues to accompany his master.
After a long walk, they arrived at a holy place. Without stopping, the master turns around and begins the journey back.
“You didn't teach me anything today,” says the apprentice, taking another tumble.
– And how to deal with them?
- How should I deal with your falls - replied the master - Instead of cursing the place where he fell, he should look for what made him slip.
