A beggar sat outside a temple begging for alms. “In the name of Bhagavan,” he said, “give this poor man a few paise. Bhagavan will bless you.” But he never succeeded in getting enough to have a meal.
In sheer disgust he left the temple area and sat near, where you know, people go in the evening to quench their thirst, repeating his usual plea. “A few paise in the name of Bhagavan.” People coming out in high spirits, gave him ‘not a few paise’, but threw in rupee notes.
The beggar thanked the Lord; “Hey Bhagavan! Your ways are inscrutable. You give one address, but live at another.”
