For Your Benefit

Two monks were walking by a beautiful, tranquil pond.
The sun was shining and glistening on the pond's surface. A
gentle breeze created tiny ripples. A fat frog sitting on a rock was
also enjoying the sun. Suddenly, shattering the tranquil silence, a
huge white crane swooped down on the frog, and with great
violence, tore it to pieces.
The younger monk, his peace of mind suddenly torn apart just
like the frog, turned to his elder brother and asked, "Why does this
have to happen?"
The elder monk replied with great wisdom,
"It is all
for your benefit."
