The shepherd saw a man under a tree, sitting in thought. He sat down next to him and tried to think, imitating the man. He began to count his sheep and weigh the benefits of their fleece.
Both sat in silence. Finally, the shepherd asked:
- Mister, what are you thinking about?
He said:
- About God.
The shepherd asked:
- Do you know what I was thinking about?
- Also about God.
— You’re wrong about the benefits of selling fleece.
- Truly, also about God. Only my God has nothing to sell, but your God must first go to the market. But maybe on the way he will meet a robber who will help him turn to this tree.
