"carrying ghosts"

Two monks walked down the road and stopped at a river. At the shore they saw a beautiful young woman, unable to cross the river by herself. One of the monks kindly offered to carry her on his shoulders. when they reached the other shore she thankfully bowed down to the monk and both parties went on their way. After some time the other monk asked: "How could you do this? you are a monk and should not carry a beautiful woman on your shoulder!" The first monk replied "I left her behind. When we crossed that river. But you my friend are still carrying her on your shoulders."
