Alexander
The Great's Final Message to Mankind
On his sickbed and during his last hour, Alexander the Great
told his generals "After my death, when you put my body
in the casket, let my arms hang over the edges with my palms
wide open, so the public can see my empty hands."
When Alexander died his generals carried out his wish. The
dignitaries who came to view the royal funeral were very surprised
to see his arms hanging over the edge of the casket with his
palms wide open. They asked questions about this unique scene
but no one could understand the message of Alexander the Great.
People were very much puzzled. Then finally, a wise man was
called to explain why his palms were wide open.
The wise man said “O’ People, Alexander the Great
is telling us that when he ruled the world, great treasures
of gold, silver and wealth came to be under his possession.
YET, INDEED HE IS LEAVING THE WORLD EMPTY HANDED.”
