So there was this man traveling abroad in Asia. As he was taking his car down a mountain road, it broke down. Thankfully, there was a monastery nearby. he went up to the door of the monastery and asked if he could come in. After a short wait, he was permitted entry and explained his situation. Sympathetic to his circumstances, the monks said that they would fix his car and that he was welcome to stay at the monastery until the repairs were complete. As he went to bed that night, he heard a strange and beautiful sound. when he woke up that morning, the monks had finished the repairs. before he left, the man asked what the noise was. The monks simply replied, "We cannot tell you, because you are not a monk.". Almost a year later, the man is back in Asia for a business trip, when his car breaks down in the exact same spot as last time. remembering the monastery, he went and knocked on the door again. this time, the monks remembered him and guessed he was having car issues again. they told him they would fix his car, and he was welcome to stay until they were done. that night, he heard the exact same sound as last time. when he got up that morning, he asked what the noise was, and the same as last time they replied, "We cannot tell you, because you are not a monk". Unsatisfied with this answer, he asked what it took to become a monk, to which they replied, "You must tell us the exact number of blades of grass and grains of sand that exist on earth. Once you do, you may become a monk.". hearing this, the man left. 25 years later, he walked back to the monastery. Once he got to the door, the monks opened it for him and asked him if he had the numbers. He replied, "There are exactly 4,856,762,981 blades of grass, and exactly 899,026,573,876,716 grains of sand.". Satisfied with his answer, the monks permitted him to join their order. As soon as the initiation was over, the man requested to see the source of the noise. they brought him to a large Iron door, with a small keyhole on it. the man requested the key, and the monks gave it to him. he unlocked the door, but behind it was a wooden door with a small keyhole. he requested the key, and the monks gave it to him. he unlocked the door, but behind it was an Iron door with a small keyhole. he requested the key, and the monks gave it to him. he unlocked the door, and his eyes widened in shock when he saw the source of the sound. I would tell you what it was, but alas, you are not a monk.
