- Reader of the sutra: Sw Ananda Teertha.
- The sutra
- A man came to the great teacher Bahaudin and asked for help in his problems, and guidance on the path of the teaching.
- Bahaudin told him to abandon spiritual studies and leave his court at once.
- A kind-hearted visitor began to remonstrate with Bahaudin.
- 'You shall have a demonstration,' said the sage.
- At that moment a bird flew into the room, darting hither and thither, not knowing where to go in order to escape.
- The Sufi waited until the bird settled near the only open window of the chamber, and then suddenly clapped his hands.
- Alarmed, the bird flew straight through the opening of the window, to freedom.
- Then Bahaudin said:
- 'To him that sound must have been something of a shock, even an affront, do you not agree?'
