00:00So Mullah Nasruddin is quite fearful of unknown enemies.

00:03So in the night he is going somewhere and he hears a lot of drum beating, a lot of people shouting.

00:08And it almost sounds like an army marching towards somewhere.

00:11Incidentally, it is a wedding party.

00:13The Mullah becomes convinced that this is an army coming to harm me.

00:16So he starts looking suspiciously at them, hides behind a bush.

00:19Now a few among the marching party, they come to see that a man is eyeing us very suspiciously.

00:23So they also start seeing who is this man, is he a highway robber or somebody.

00:27So they start chasing Mullah.

00:28The Mullah runs to save his dear life.

00:30Now he is totally convinced that people are planning to kill him.

00:33The harder he runs, the more this party is convinced that he is an evil man.

00:36Soon he is exhausted.

00:37So he finds a graveyard and there is an open grave.

00:40Mullah goes and lies down in that grave.

00:42And they all come around and pointing swords at him.

00:44They say, hey, who are you? Get up.

00:45What are you doing here?

00:46He says, I want to ask the same question.

00:47What are you doing here?

00:48Now they start looking at each other and they say, this man looks more like a moron than a marauder.

00:52Mullah gets a hint.

00:53He tells them, you know what?

00:54I have understood.

00:55Some hidden wisdom is there surely.

00:56You are here because of me and I am here because of you.

00:59That is what imagination does.

01:00You imagine somebody as an enemy and it is possible that he will indeed start acting as an enemy.

01:05Your imagination of the other person's behavior causes the other person to behave in a particular way.
