: 47. CROW
A certain Vaisnava asked a Jain monk this question : "Little monk, why is this crow scattering his excreta here and there ?" The young monk quickly, perceived the Vaisnava's mischievous intention and replied, "You people believe that God Visnu is here, there and every where and this pious crow is trying to discover whether Vişnu could be there even in his excreta."
The good old Vaisnava felt dazed as if hit on his head and quickly walked away fretting in rage.
