This is the new story from ancient Hindu scripture . This tells us something which has been told to us many times and we still do not understand it or may be do not accept it or may be we just can't think in that way .
This is the story of KACHMUNI. He was born from VED VYAS .Vyas is the same Vyas is one of the very old sages . He was devoted , learned and also had reached the heights of meditation . When his wife was pregnant, the child was not ready to come out after usual 10 months of pregnancy. He stayed in foe several years and then the sage Vyas had to request the child to come out as it was becoming very difficult for the mother to carry on pregnancy due to the growing child . This was the KACH MUNI. After his birth Ved Vyas taught him all the religious scriptures and the whatever he knew and then when he wanted more he told him to go to the King Janaka. (think about it . The sage is sending his son to a king - who is involved in all sorts of bodily pleasures to teach his son on religion)
So the Kachmuni started his journey to go to the king Janak. He had to go through the Forrest and it was long way . His father decided to follow the son . In the small town as they were passing by there was a small lake and and there were ladies of the town who were swimming naked . As the Kach muni pass by they did not react and continued to swim and did not cover them self . As the Vyas passed by they covered their naked bodies with clothes . This was noticed by the Kachmuni and he thought to himself that the ladies knew that he had no desires and they were safe , but they were not that sure of his father .
He reached the Janaka kingdom and then the palace and he was stopped at the gates . He sent a message to King Jnaaka that ,'I the Kachmuni , has come to see him 'the guard gave the message to the king and the King Janaka send a message to Kachmuni ,'When you have given up everything , you can come in '. The Kachmuni sent a second message that ,'I the Kachmuni has given up everything .' the guard took the message to the king and the king send back the same message , 'when if you have given uo everything , you can come in .
Now the Kachmuni was surprised . He could not understand and so he sent the same message and he got the same reply.
And then it struck him . In each message he was saying I THE KACHMUNI - which meant that he was referring to the physical body as KACH MUNI and that showed the attachment to the physical body or he was mistaken to refer I TO THE BODY OF KACHMUNI . The story continues and when he realized the mistake he was allowed to meet the king and then the king did teach him . There is story of how he tested the new student and that may be next time .
