Story Telling

   A story must be told in such a way it constitutes help in
     itself. My grandfather was lame. Once they asked him to
     tell a story about his teacher. And he related how his
     teacher used to hop and dance while he prayed. My
     grandfather rose as he spoke, and he was so swept away by
     his story that he began to hop and dance to show how the
     master had done. From that hour, he was cured of his
     lameness. That’s how to tell a story.
