Guest guest Posted August 1, 2005 Report Share Posted August 1, 2005 Who is beggar? Richest person on earth is the one who has understood the value of chanting in Kaliyuga...for HIM (Krishna/Shambho)is the only giver rest of all of us are beggars. Short story.......a poor person wanted to get out of his poverty.. he had a lot about akbar, mughal king of colonial India...went to his palace to ask for help....akbar was praying to allah and requesting to provide him more and more. Seeing this poor person started to leave....akbar saw him and asked who was he and why was he leaving. The person replied.."I thought of asking you for some help..but now I realize that you are the biggest beggar on earth and I know whom to ask for..I will directly ask from God"...saying this he left leaving akbar ash/black faced.
