Naivedhya

(The idea is taken from a whatsapp message in Tamil)

When a learned Guru was making offering to God ,

One of his students laughed and asked him,

“You say God has accepted what you have offered,

But how come everything that you have offered is still here.”

Guru made that student to learn by heart a tough poem,

And when he could recite it without seeing and without mistake,

He showed him the poem in the book and asked him,

“The sloka you have learnt is still here , but you also are having it .

What we offer to God is like that , Both of us will have it,

After he has received it from us and we have given it”
