I found this riddle and i was wondering if someone can help me with it:
One fine day, this man went up to the mountains. As soon as he reached the top, it started to rain. As he looked around, he saw a temple. He quickly ran towards the temple and knocked on the large door. A monk opened the door and this man asked the monk if he could stay for the night as it was raining.
The next week, this man went up to the mountains again. Everything happened again. It started to rain and this man went to take shelter at the temple. The man stayed for the night again.
And again in the following week, this man went up to the mountains again. Of course, everything happened again.. The rain and the staying over.
This man finally noticed that door with a huge lock in the temple that he saw for all 3 nights.
This man then asked the monk "What is behind that door?"
The monk told the man "Sorry i cannot tell you as u are not a monk".
The man then asked "How can i become a monk?"
The monk said "You will have to finish 2 tasks"
"Go all over the world and count the number of grass and come back with the answer"
The man took 30 years to count every single grass and came back with the answer and it was correct.
The monk said "Good. You have finished your first task. Now for your second task."
"Go all over the world and count the number of sand and come back with the answer"
This man took another 30 years to count every single grain of sand and came back with the answer and it was correct.
This monk said"Congratz u are now a monk and u can have this key that will open any lock in the world."
This man hurriedly went to open the door with the lock.
After opening, he saw a green door with a lock.
He opened the door and saw another blue door with a lock
He opened the door and saw another grey door with a lock
He opened the door and saw another red door with a lock
He opened the door and saw another yellow door with a lock
He opened the door and saw another pink door with a lock
He opened the door and saw another white door with a lock
He opened the door and saw another black door with a lock
He opened the door and saw another brown door with a lock
He opened the door and saw another GOLDEN door with a lock
He thought that since its a golden door, he must be really close to the end. He opened the golden door slowly, and he saw something really bright and shiny. WHAT IS IT?
I'll post the answer as soon as the guy gives it to us, he said assume he can count all the grass and sand. =\
