How must Our mark be left Behind

A famous, aged Buddhist Monk was asked to deliver a sermon in Sarnath, where Buddhist Monks from across the World had converged to celebrate the 1000th birth anniversary of the Lord Buddha.
' May you all be Forgotten' were the only words uttered by him.
'But Why?' asked one of the gathered Monks. 'Can that mean that the example what we set here must never benefit a man in need?'
'In the days that everyone was just, no one paid any attention to people who behaved in an exemplary manner,' replied the Monk. 'Everyone did their best, never thought that what they did to aid their brother was a duty, but instead they accepted it as a part of their beings, their ingrained character and a law that Nature had pre-ordained behaviour. They shared their possessions so that they could not accumulate more than that what they could carry, for then journeys lasted lifetimes. They lived together in freedom, making no demands, giving and recieving and never indulging in petty strifes. If only we could achieve the same thing now: to make goodness so common that there would be no need to praise those who practiced it.'
