A long time ago a
dacoit used to stop travellers in a forest. He killed them if they did not stop. One day a
rishi passed through the forest. The dacoit stopped him, and said, "Give me
everything you have-even your clothes." The rishi said, "I shall give them to
you. But what will you do with them?"
The dacoit said, "I shall sell them. With that money I shall feed my family."
The rishi asked, "Will your family share the punishment from God for your wicked
deeds? Go and ask them." |
