Then an athlete said,
Speak to us of Balance.
He then said:
Man cannot know the meaning of Balance until he has felt the consequences of losing his Balance.
In nature’s plan of interdependence, one animal must die so that another animal may live.
This is, of course, the Balance of Nature.
But, more importantly, nature does not waste.
Man, however, causes nature to be unbalanced at times.
Animals that have survived eons become extinct at man’s merciless hand.
The ground ceases to bear fruit from man’s misuse of crops.
Water becomes dead and lifeless from man’s foreign chemicals.
Yes, man has much to learn about Balance.

ANd that he remains the second clumsiest animal on earth.
And what is the clumsiest animal on earth, Master, the man inquired.
Oh, you haven’t met my horse either, he replied.
