The elephant and the fly
A disciple(信徒), who was disturbed by the fact that his mind was in constant unrest, asked his
teacher, "Why are most people’s minds restless? What can one do to still the mind?” The teacher
looked at the disciple, smiled and told him a story:
An elephant was standing and picking leaves from a tree. A small fly came，flying and buzzing
(嗡嗡叫) near his ear. The elephant waved it away with his long ears. Then the fly came again, and
the elephant waved it away once more.
This was repeated several times. Then the elephant asked the fly, “Why are you so restless and
noisy? Why can’t you stay for a while in one place? ”
The fly answered, “I am attracted to whatever I see, hear or smell. My five senses pull me constantly
in all directions and I cannot resist them．What is your secret? How can you stay so calm and still?”
The elephant stopped eating and said, “My five senses do not rule my attention. Whatever I do, I
get immersed in it. Now that I am eating, I am completely absorbed in eating. In this way I can enjoy
my food and chew it better. I rule and control my attention, and not the other way around.”
Upon hearing these words, a smile appeared on the disciple’s face, “I understand! If my five senses
are in control of my mind and attention, then my mind is in constant unrest. If I am in charge of my five
senses and attention, then my mind becomes calm.”

Possible version：
An elephant told a restless fly that being absorbed in doing things helped him stay still. After hearing
the story from his teacher, the disciple realized that only by controlling his senses can he obtain calmness. (36 words)
After reading the story, I was inspired by what the elephant said. The ability to focus your attention is
the key to your success in doing anything. Just like the fly, a person who is easily distracted by the
surroundings will feel restless and tired, unable to achieve his success.
This reminds me of what happened when I entered high school as a Senior One student. I was so excite
d to find that there were various student organizations and after-class activities intended for us students.
It seemed that many groups were suitable to me. During the first term, I was attracted whenever there
was a notice from a student group and I was eager to find out more about it. As a result, I didn’t spend
enough time on my studies, nor could I settle down on my homework every day. Consequently, I failed
in an important exam.
I have learned a lesson from this experience that one should focus on one thing at a time before he can
get it well done. To do so, we should put what we are doing in the first place and keep it up without
being interfered by other events. Only when we have a clear and determined mind can we accomplish
something in the end.
