One day, Rumi was walking through the marketplace when he met a beggar who was asking for money.
Rumi asked the beggar, "What do you want?"
The beggar replied, "I want happiness."
Rumi then took the beggar's hand and led him to a nearby pond.
Rumi asked the beggar to look into the water and said, "What do you see?"
The beggar replied, "I see my reflection."
Rumi then said, "Now look again."
The beggar looked again and saw that the water was disturbed, and his reflection was gone.
Rumi then said, "Happiness is like your reflection in the water. When the water is still, you can see it clearly. But when the water is disturbed, it disappears. In the same way, when your mind is calm and peaceful, you can experience true happiness."
