Guest guest Posted June 17, 2005 Report Share Posted June 17, 2005 I read this story a looong time ago, dont remember the source. Forgive me if the details on baptism are not accurate. So there was this chap that became a Christian. As part of his new religion, he got baptised. The Minister performing the baptism, sprinkled water on him and said ,"From now on , you are no longer XYZ , you are John. And as part of your new religion, you will not eat chicken on Fridays, you will only eat fish". Now this new John was a confirmed chicken lover but wanting to be "with" his new religion, he agreed with the Minister. The Minister visited John on a Friday to see how he was coping with his new religious edict. To his dismay he found John eating chicken. "Why John, I thought you agreed not to eat chicken on Fridays?" exclaimed the Minister. And John said, "I did! I got the chicken, sprinkled water over it and said"From now on, you are no longer a chicken, you are a fish ...... Well that story dear readers is mentioned in my post because I was travelling yesterday and couldnt chant the Guru Gita. And thats why I sprinkled water on today and said "You are no longer Friday, you are Thursday" and completed the chanting. I TOO chanted the Guru Gita on Thursday !!!!
