Guest guest Posted January 26, 2003 Report Share Posted January 26, 2003 Jaya Guru Datta, Here is today's saying: "Let us try to understand this with the help of an example. Your friend narrates his financial hardships. The theme of his narration is - "please lend me a thousand rupees". But during the course of his narration, he has never actually asked for a loan. If at all, there was only a faint and passing mention of it. At the end of his narration you will easily understand that the purpose of the narration is to ask for a loan. In other words, the Tatparya (purport) of his story is 'I want a loan'."
