Synopsis "The Old Man of Degogartia (in English)"
Unrelenting effort and devotion to the fulfilment of the ultimate aim impart meaning and dignity to every pursuit. Contemplation bears wisdom, whereas wisdom inspires one to act. When carried out with piety, these exhortations of wisdom pave the way to one's salvation. The greatest marker of a "Karma yogi" is disinterested action. He lays great emphasis on the deed but disregards the result.Professor Juan Ho was a great mind and a true ascetic who had walked before his time. The numerous stories of sublime morals that he had read as a young boy woke up the scientist in him.A little patch of algae asked the mighty ocean, "Why do you hinder me so much? Every time I try and descend into the waters, you thrust me back to the land. Is this not unjust?" The ocean replied, "Today, you are alone but soon you shall proliferate. Think. Would you not deface me? None would be left who can recognise me."The hostility between the ocean and the algae occupied Juan's thoughts. Little did anyone know that these little fragments would bring him great renown.During his life away from civilisation, Juan became one among the natives of island that they called him their "grandpa". What had earned Juan the reverence of the people and brought his research into fruition was the wise pursuit of what he regarded as his life's purpose.Even at the pinnacle of fame, Juan was engaged in preparations for a return as a selfless citizen of the world
