A man who lived in a small house saw it catch fire. He rushed to save his children but saw that they were distracted and playing. He called them, but they ignored him. So, he promised them toys to get them to come out. They did, and he saved them. Later, the children learned that the house had been burning, and the toys were not real.
Sometimes, we are too attached to the illusion of worldly pleasures to see the reality of danger and suffering.
