Many roads lead to Calcutta. A certain man started from his home in a distant village towards the metropolis.
He asked a man on the road, "What road must I take to reach Calcutta soon?"
The man said, "Follow this road."
Proceeding some distance, he met another man and asked him, "Is this the shortest road to Calcutta?"
The man replied, "O, no! You must retrace your footsteps and take the road to your left."
The man did so. Going in that new road for some distance, he met a third man who pointed him out another road to Calcutta.
Thus the traveller made no progress, but spent the day in changing one road for another.
As he wanted to reach Calcutta, he should have stuck to the road pointed out to him by the first man.
Similarly those who want to reach God must follow one and one only Guide.
