Do you remember the story of the blind priests?

Long, long ago, and far, far away, the sage told of the blind priests who each touched the same thing.

One said, ‘It’s a pointy spear.’
The next said, ‘It’s a twisty snake.’
The third said, ‘It’s a sturdy column.’
The fourth said, ‘It’s a waving fan.’
The fifth said, ‘It’s a large curved wall.’
The sixth said, ‘It’s a twisty rope.’
