A Scorpion and A Saint
A Scorpion and A Saint
A saint took a bath in a river one day. He saw a scorpion writhing in the water not far from him. Because scorpions cannot swim, the saint was aware that the scorpion would perish if he did not intervene.
In order to save the struggling scorpion from the water, the saint gently lifted it up. The scorpion stung his finger just as he was about to place it down on land, though.
The saint instinctively threw his palm away after being stung, and the scorpion flew back into the water. The saint tried to save the distressed creature once more as soon as he recovered from the pain. However, as before, the scorpion stung him before he could keep it safely on the ground. As a result, the incident repeated multiple times, with the saint continuing to try to save the scorpion while it was being attacked each time.
