Reading these very short stories is a waste of time.

That is why I have made them as short as possible.

On behalf of Nasreddin I apologize for writing them.

When you have finished reading them go seek enlightenment somewhere else.

Or give up. Then you may attain enlightenment.

Tom Greening          

How to Be a Fool

Seeker: I hear Tom Greening has compiled a book of stories about you. Should I buy and read it?

Nasreddin: Yes. Tom Greening is a fool.

Seeker: Then why should I buy his book?

Nasreddin: It will be good for you to read a book by a fool about a fool.

Seeker: Why is that?

Nasreddin: So you, too, can learn how to be a fool.

Nightmare

Man: Iwake up at night screaming but I don’t know what I am afraid of.

Nasreddin: Choose something to be afraid of.

Man: But then I’ll still wake up screaming.

Nasreddin: True, but at least then you’ll know why.

Again...and Again

Seeker: I've read all your stories, but I am still not enlightened. Do you have anymore stories for me to read?

Nasreddin: These are all the stories required for you to attain enlightenment. If you are still not enlightened go back and read them again...and again.
