A2 That morning Draupadi went toYamuna to take bath. While bathing, her eyes fell on a monk bathing somedistance away. Therewas only one loincloth on his body. The other loincloth was kept aside forchanging. But a gust of wind came and the other loincloth flew away and gotswept away in the water. Unfortunately, the wet loincloth also got torn at thesame time because it was old. There was a problem in covering the body also. Thelight had started spreading. The crowd of people taking bath was increasing.The monk's confusion increased. How could he stand shameless? He hid himselfunder a small bush growing at some distance. He intended to go to his place inthe dark when night fell. Draupadisaw the whole scene and understood the difficulty of the sage. She thought of helping. She did not have another Saree. So, she covered her body somehow by tearing itin half and took the other half with her and reached near the bush where thenaked monk was hiding. Draupadisaid- Father! I have understood your difficulty. I have torn half my saree.Cover your body with this cloth and gohome. Half of my work is also done. Tearswelled up in the sadhu's eyes. He took the piece of cloth, wore it and went hermitage.He kept blessing in my mind that may Godalways cover her shame. Thematter become very old. Pandavas lost Draupadi in gambling. Dushasan was readyto strip her naked in front of the gathering. He had the same idea to takerevenge for Draupadi's abusive words. Draupadi,in the dire crisis, called out to God, who was sleeping on the remaining bed.Narad woke him up and said - listen to the call of the devotees. Arrange for herhelp! Withsleepy eyes the Lord said - "Neither do I help anyone, nor do I surprise anyone.Everyone enjoys the fruits of their own deeds. Find out if Draupadi has anyprevious virtues. If she has any virtues, she will be rewarded." Naradlooked at the account book and came to know that Draupadi had torn half of hersaree and donated it to a saint. That piece has now become the size of agrowing bundle with interest. Godsaid - Why will we not give the reward of someone's good deeds on time? Mountedon Garuda and carrying a bundle of clothes, he reached near the gathering ofKauravas. Dushasan kept pulling her clothes. God kept fulfilling it from above.The puller got tired. The clothes continued to grow, Draupadi's modesty wassaved. She got thousands of yards of cloth in exchange for half the saree. Soif a man has not done anything of his own, then even the Creator himself cannothelp him. My note- Ejanma sukrutham.

A3 Steven Haddock,LL.B. degree, 25years in litigation, administrative law, collections, bankrupty andprofessional regulation4y Becausemoms and dads aren’t medical professionals who can provide a definitivediagnosis. Herein Canada, we’re about to have a second trial for a couple who ignored theadvice of everyone they spoke to take their kid to a doctor.

A4 Animal Health Tips, Feb 22 Thisguy.He may look like a cow, made in your worst nightmare.He isn't called theWidowmaker for nothing. He kills an average of 200 people per year, much morethan lions. The Cape buffalo (and his other buffalo relatives) are regarded asextremely dangerous. There have been several cases of hunters wounding a buffaloand the buffalo will stalk and kill the hunters. The heavy horn on their headis made up of thick keratin, effectively making it bulletproof. Awounded, but still mobile buffalo, will head into thick bush and woe betidethat naive hunter who will follow him into that bush. The buffalo will ambushthe hunter inside the thick bush and show him he isn't called a widowmaker fornothing. Thelast face you'll ever see Asidehumans, the only animal likely to attack a buffalo are lions and crocodiles,usually with the lions eating the dust in such encounters. Smart lions andcrocs go for weak buffalo and calves. Unlikemost prey animals, buffalo will attack sleeping lions as a group and attempt totrample them to death. They will also come to the aid of threatened (or caught)family member and often succeed in driving the predators away. Woooow!2000 upvotes. Thanks guys. Let me add a few more facts about the AfricanBuffalo African buffalo can run at speeds of up to57 kilometers (35 miles) per hour. The world's fastest man runs at a miserly 27miles per hour. Good luck running away from a buffalo on a revenge mission.Unless you're The Flash, and you're not being chased by a herd ofsuper-buffalo. After resting, herds of buffalo seem tohave a unique system of choosing in which direction to move. They vote. Theanimals stand up and face the direction where they want to move and thedominant female leads them in the direction where most of the animals arefacing. So you've pissed off a herd of democratic animals. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Thatha_Patty" group.
