An intelligent youth attached to ShriMaharaj, returned from travelling abroad on a scholarship. When he met ShriMaharaj, ShriMaharaj said, "What unusual thing did you see there ?" The youth said, "Maharaj, I saw the leaning tower of Pisa. Upon this ShriMaharaj said, "You had to go abroad to see these three wonders. I have seen three wonders right here. Everyone is acquainted with their own 'self. One stays with him one's entire life. But one does not understand his essence; this is the first wonder. Everyone applies the mind for conducting all affairs of everyday life. Whether it is pleasure or pain, man experiences it with the help of his mind. Despite this, the mind is not under anyone's control; this is the second wonder. And everyone complains every instant that wordly life is devoid af happiness, but no one is prepared to leave it; this is the third wonder."
