Alexander's three wishes

On his deathbed, Alexander "The Great" summoned his generals and told them his 3 ultimate wishes:
1. The best doctors should carry his coffin;
2. The wealth he accumulated (money, gold, precious stones) should be scattered along the procession to the cemetery;
3. His hands should be let loose, hanging outside the coffin for all to see.
One of his generals, who was surprised by these unusual requests asked Alexander to explain.
Alexander said:
1. I want the best doctors to carry my coffin to demonstrate that they have NO power to heal;
2. I want the road to be covered with my treasures so that everybody sees that material wealth acquired on earth, stays on earth;
3. I want my hands to swing in the wind, so people can understand that we come to this world empty handed and we leave this world empty handed.
