Babu Rao Boravke and the forgotten rupee

 

Babu Rao Boravke when young was without money and was going to

Shirdi. On the way, he went to his uncle, who told him not to go

with (i.e.,) empty hands to a saint and gave him Re. 1 to give

Baba.

 

Boravke arrived at Shirdi.

 

Baba.: Give me Dakshina Re.l.

 

Boravke (forgetting the newly acquired rupee): I have

nothing

 

Baba-: See. Re. 1 is in your pocket. You must give Re.1to a

fakir,

 

Boravke felt in his pocket, found the rupee and gave it
