These two boys then went to the Loma Linda University
in California, and after completing the course work, had
to undergo internship. For this they went to the Marion
Medical Centre, also in California. When their internship
was over, they were paid five thousand dollars as wages
for the work they had done. The two boys refused to accept
the money, saying, “We have come to learn and not
to earn!” But the Medical Centre would not accept
this argument and said, “We have to pay; otherwise
it would amount to extortion of work.” The boys
then accepted the amount but instantly wrote a cheque
donating the entire amount of $ 5,000! They told the Centre
to use this money for charitable work as they deemed appropriate!
This is the spirit in which work is to be done!
