Parable: Life-saving response

One Raja loved to hear how astrologers read the stars of destiny. And when in the capital of his state arrived very famous astrologer, he ordered them to bring him to his Palace. They talked, and then Stargazer began to draw up the horoscope of Raja. Unfortunately, the stars did not promise anything good ruler. Stargazer honestly in this Raj, and he, in anger, without thinking twice ordered the execution of the unfortunate predictor.
- Everyone on this earth will be calm, ' cried the Raja, if people like you will be on it as little as possible! You will die, so get ready for it!
Butchers have already started your preparation, when the order came again allow the astrologer to the Palace. Raja wanted more time to test it.
- Can you define, ' he said mockingly, - how many do you have left to live?
"If I tell him that will live for many more years, he probably only supposed to speed up the execution to show that my predictions are worth nothing," thought the astrologer, and said aloud:
- O Lord, I see by the stars that my death will come only a week earlier. Now it's time to say goodbye, but soon we will meet in another world. Sir, so I can adequately prepare for our meeting, tell them to send me there as quickly as possible!
- Kick this charlatan out of my house! - the Raja was furious after hearing the words of the astrologer. - Continue to keep it not only to the Palace, but also to the city!
Guards grabbed astrologer and roughly threw him from the steps of the Palace of Raja. But the astrologer of this does not upset. "There would be a whole head - and then the trouble is not terrible," he thought, and went his way.
