Rama Said:
"Yes I hear it. But listen. In his former birth Gopanna kept a parrot imprisoned in a
cage for a number of years. He must therefore suffer for the sin in jail now. I shall,
however,help him soon."
Inside the jail Gopanna became more and more disgusted with life. He wanted to put an end
to himself.So he took a cup of poison in his hand
and was about to drink it, when he fell into a swoon.
God in heaven took the form of two young men. Calling
themselves Ramji and Lakshmanji, the two went to the ruler of the State.
They told him: "Huzur! We are servants of Gopanna. He
asked us to return to you the six lakhs of gold coins, which he spent. Here they are. Take
them and give us a receipt, and also the order to release him from jail. |
