Pitaji Speaks
An incident from Guruji’s childhood as narrated by Pitaji, Guruji’s father.
“One day when I opened my briefcase in a meeting at work, I was startled
to find it full of toys, instead of my official documents. All my colleagues
had a hearty laugh at my expense! When I went home that evening, I
emptied out my briefcase in front of my son. As the toys piled up in front
of him, he laughed and simply pointed at the piles of my papers, neatly Sharing with little friends
arranged along with his other toys!
