Very clever, very funny.

 

 

To be sure, to be sure!

Being rich and being poor - email from Kitta Rajaratnam

 

A Swami was having a conversation
with Lord Shiva one day and said.

'Lord, I would like to know what
Heaven and Hell are like.


Lord Shiva led the Swami to two
doors.

He opened one of the doors and the
Swami looked in.

In the middle of the room was a large round table.

In the middle of the table was a large pot
of stew, which smelled delicious and
made the Swami's mouth water.

The people sitting around the table
were thin and sickly. They appeared to
be famished.

They were holding spoons with very long handles that
were strapped to their arms and each found it possible to reach into the pot
of stew and take a spoonful.

But because the handle was longer than their arms, they could not get the
spoons back into their mouths.

The Swami shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering.

Lord Shiva said, 'You have seen Hell.

They went to the next room and
opened the door.

It was exactly the same as the first one. There was the
large round table with the large pot of stew which made the holy man's mouth
water.

The people were equipped with the same long-handled spoons,

but here the people were well nourished and
plump, laughing and talking.

The Swami said, 'I don't understand.'

'It is simple,' said Lord Shiva..

'It requires but one skill.

You see they have learned to feed each
other, while the greedy think only
of themselves.'

When Lord Shiva created the world, He was
thinking of you. It's estimated 93%
won't forward this. If you are one of
the 7% who will, forward this with the
title '7%'.

I'm in the 7%

Remember that I will always share
my spoon with you !

HAVE A GREAT DAY
