God's Hotline

The Chief Pujari of ISKCON, Vrindavan and the Pope are in a meeting in

Rome. The Pujari notices an unusually fancy phone on a side table in

the Pope's private chambers.

 

"What is that phone for?" he asks the pontiff.

 

"It's my direct line to the Lord!"

 

The Pujari is skeptical, and the Pope notices. The Holy Father insists

that the Pujari try it out, and, indeed, he is connected to the

Lord. The Pujari holds a lengthy discussion with Him. After hanging

up, the Pujari says, "Thank you very much. This is great! But listen,

I want to pay for my phone charges."

 

The Pope, of course refuses, but the Pujari is steadfast and finally,

the pontiff gives in. He checks the counter on the phone and says,

"Alright! The charges were 1000,000 Lira. ($560)

 

The Chief Pujari gladly hands over a packet of bills. A few months

later, the Pope is in Vrindavan, India on an official visit. In the

Chief Pujari's chambers, he sees a phone identical to his and learns

it also is a direct line to the Lord. The Pope remembers he has an

urgent matter that requires divine consultation and asks if he can use

the Pujari's phone. The Pujari gladly agrees, hands him the phone, and

the Pope chats away. After hanging up, the Pope offers to pay for the

phone charges. This time, the Chief Pujari refuses to accept

payment. After the Pope insists, the Pujari relents and looks on the

phone counter and says: "Rs 10.00 !" ($0.25).

 

The Pope looks surprised: "Why so cheap!?"

 

The Pujari smiles: "Because it's a Local call."
