NARSI MEHTA

But in the whole of Dwaraka there was no Seth Samaldas. They were disappointed and also angry. They thought Narsi had deceived them.

At last a man came to see the merchants. He said, "I am Seth Samaldas. What do you want?"

The merchants replied, "We have a hundi for Rs. 1500 which Narsi Mehta of Juna- gadh gave to us."

"Oh! I thought it was for Rs. 2000. Anyway, I have brought Rs. 2000. You may takethis entire money and give me the hundi!"said Seth Samaldas.

The merchants hesitated. "Sir, how can we take more money than we have given? Please give us only Rs. 1500," they said.

The Seth said: "Doesn't matter. I shall give you Rs. 500 as a gift, because you have helped Narsi."

The merchants were pleased and took the money.

God Krishna himself had come as Seth Samaldas to help his devotee!
