מועד קטן יא

A Buddhist monk had his head shaved by the barber and asked “How much do I owe you?”  “Nothing,” the barber replied.  “It’s my privilege to take care of a holy man such as you.”  The next day, a dozen gemstones were waiting for him as he arrived at the barbershop.  Later that day, a priest came to have his hair cut.  “How much do I owe you?” he asked.  “Nothing, Father,” the barber replied.  “It’s my privilege to take care of a holy man such as you.”  The following day, a dozen roses were waiting for him as he arrived at the barbershop.  A few hours later, a Rabbi came to have his hair cut.  “How much do I owe you?” he asked.  “Nothing, Rabbi,” the barber replied.  “It’s my privilege to take care of a holy man such as you.”  The next morning, a dozen rabbis were waiting for him as he arrived at the barbershop.
