There was a wealthy man who was bothered by severe eye illness. He consulted many doctors, but none could treat his ache. He went through a myriad of treatment procedures, but his pain persisted with more vigour. He looked and for every available solution of his pain, and approached a wise monk, renowned for treating various illnesses. The monk carefully observed his illness and offered a very unusual solution.

The monk told the man to concentrate only on green colour for a few weeks and avoid any other colours. The man was desperate to get rid of the pain and was determined ready to go any extent. The rich man appointed a group of painters and purchased barrels of green paint and directed that every object, his eye was likely to fall to be painted green.

After a few weeks the monk came to visit the man to follow up on the man's progress. As the monk walked towards the man's room, the appointed painter poured a bucket of green paint on the monk.

The monk could see that the whole corridor and the room was painted green. As the monk inquired for the reason for painting everything green, the wealthy man said that he was only following the monk’s advice to look at only green.

Hearing this, the monk laughed and said “If only you had purchased a pair of green spectacles, worth just a few dollars, You could have saved a large share of your fortune. You cannot paint the world green.”

"Let is change our vision and the world will appear accordingly."
