Maharshi charak is known as the Father of Ayurveda. He wrote a famous treatise called the Charak Samhita, which talks about the fine qualities that one should develop while practicing Ayurveda. He was renowned for his knowledge of Vedic scriptures as well as his expertise natural medicinal cures. People from far and wide came to study under him.
One day he was travelling along with his disciples through dense forests, farms and beautiful hills and valleys in search of medicinal herbs.
On their way, they came across a farm. Maharshi Charak's eyes fell on a beautiful flower. He stood admiring the shape of the petals, the attractive color and the sweet mild fragrance. He knew this flower was usually very difficult to find. This rare flower could be used for making some special medicines. However, because of his high moral values, he did not pluck it. He simply stood, looking at the wondrous gift of nature.
One disciple wanted to please his guru. He politely asked, "Guruji, if you grant me permission, shall I offer this flower at your service?"
Maharshi Charak replied, "My dear boy, I certainly want this beautiful flower, but if I pluck it without the permission of the owner of the farm, it will amount to robbery."
"But guruji", the disciple stammered, "it's only a flower!"
"No my son", Maharshi Charak replied, "It may seem to be a tiny insignificant flower, but God has placed it under somebody's care."
Saying this, Maharshi started walking towards the farm owner's house, which was three miles away from the farm. After seeking the owner's permission, Maharshi Charak returned to the farm and plucked the beautiful flower he wanted.
The disciples' faith in their guru deepened even more on seeing Maharishi Charak's honesty. They realized it was these high spiritual values and principles that made their guru's diagnosis and medicines so powerful and effective.
If we respect God, then we must also respect His children. Respect means not encroaching on what God has allotted to others and not hurting others. If everyone practices this virtue, this world would be a better and a happier place.
