One day there was a homeless man, and he has been trying to gather food. But he keeps noticing that everyday his food disappears, one by one. One day, he caught a mouse that have been trying to steal his food, but the he asked the mouse..
"Why are you stealing from me?"
"I am an homeless man, you can steal from richer people than me and it wont have any effect on them"
The mouse then told the homeless man, "It is in your destiny that you can only have eight items in your possession..no matter how much you ever beg...no matter how much you ever gather...this is all you will ever have..."
The homeless man was in shock.
"But why? Why is it my destiny?", he asked the mouse.
"I dont know, maybe you should ask the buddha" the mouse said to the homeless man in reply.
So then the homeless man goes on a journey to find the buddha. But one time, as he's going, it gets late. The sun had already set and it was so dark he could'nt see.
And so he ends up in a wealthy family's house, and asked if he could stay for the night. They let him in and asked the homeless man in and asked. "Young man why are you travellig so late?"
But then the homeless man replied to him and said, " I have a question for the buddha, and tomorrow I will be on my way"
The family then says..
"Can we give you a question to ask the buddha?"
"We have a sixteen year old daughter who cant speak, we just wanna ask...what do we have to do to make her speak?"
So, the homeless man thanks them for shelter, and tells them, "Of course, I'll ask the question for you"
So the next morning he goes on and continues his journey..
