Giita

A joke shared by Puspa.


------------------------


Each Friday night after work, Mr. Singh would

fire up his outdoor grill and cook a tandoori

chicken and some meat kebabs. But, all of his

neighbors were strict Catholics and since it was

Lent, they were forbidden from eating chicken

and meat on a Friday.



The delicious aroma from the grilled meat was

causing such a problem for the Catholic faithful

that they finally talked to their priest. The priest

came to visit Mr. Singh and suggested that he

become a Catholic. After several classes and much

study, Mr. Singh attended Mass. And as the priest

sprinkled holy water over him, he said, "You were

born a Sikh, and raised a Sikh, but now, you are

a Catholic."



Mr. Singh's neighbors were greatly relieved, until

Friday night arrived. The wonderful aroma of

tandoori chicken and meat kebabs filled the

neighborhood. The priest was called immediately

by the neighbors and, as he rushed into Mr. Singh's

backyard, clutching a rosary and prepared to scold

him, he stopped and watched in amazement.



There stood Mr. Singh, holding a small bottle of

holy water which he carefully sprinkled over the

grilling meat and chanted: "Oye, you were born a

chicken and you were born a lamb, you were raised

a chicken and you were raised a lamb, but now,

you are a potato and a tomato."
