Two wise men

Two wise men lived in the same village. All people went for advice to a younger sage, but no one went to an older one. And the elder held the grudge against the young, and he was still thinking how to put it down. He once saw a butterfly flying and thought: “Here I will take the butterfly in my hand and ask him if the butterfly is alive. If he answers yes, then I’ll clench my fist; if not, I will let go of the butterfly. ”
He approaches the sage and asks everyone:
“Is the butterfly alive in my hand?”
To which the sage answers:
- Everything is in your hands.
