Is important the dress for you?

The dress
I propose you this story to show you how people are careful to externals.
There once was a good and pious Brahmin who lived on the alms of the faithful who gives him.
One day he thought, "I'm going to beg dressed as a poor untouchable".
So she put a rag around the hips, like the pariah, the poorest in India.
That day no one greeted him, no one gave him alms.
He went to the market, went to the temple, but no one spoke to him.
The next time the Brahmin dressed according to his caste: he put a beautiful white dress, a silk turban and an embroidered jacket.
The people greeted him and gave him money for him and for the temple.
When he returned home, the Brahmin removed his clothes, put them on a chair and bowed deeply.
Then he said, "Oh Lucky you, clothes! Lucky! On land that is certainly the most honored is the dress, not the human being which is below."
