This is not the whole story; what happens when our wish does not fulfill. We are very cunning and a complaining creature. One side accomplishment of wish and wand increases the faith in God and religion while on the other side any failure in accomplishment shakes the faith in them. Overall, we need all our wishes to be fulfilled. In long list of daily and materialistic wishes, one wish is quite different i.e. wish of meeting God or wish of knowing the truth which in words of Maslow is 'Self-actualization.' This is the wish people often face failure. Almost everyone has wished it in his/her life since the evolution but only few were lucky, who got their wish fulfilled.
Being the most complaining creature, we attribute external factors responsible for our failure. When our wish to know the eternal truth does not get fulfilled we either blame the path or deny the existence of such thing. Only one who knows the truth has the capability to explain the reason behind such failure and amazingly, when they explain they find it inside us rather only outside. One story depict the same explanation,
Once, a hermit was meditating by a river when a young man interrupted him.
"Master, I wish to become your disciple," said the man.
"Why so?" replied the hermit.
