THE CRIPPLED MAN AND THE PROSTITUTE
Once upon a time, there lived a crippled man. This man was married, but he was
attracted to the prostitute that lived in the house opposite. One day his wife
saw him looking very morose. "What's wrong, my dear husband?" she inquired.
"Even though I am married to you," he replied, "I am attracted to the
prostitute. I am asking you to make an arrangement for me." So being a very
chaste and obedient wife, she wished to fulfill her husband's desire, and she
began going to the prostitute's house when no-one was home, and clean there.
After a while this prostitute noticed, "Someone is cleaning my house. I am not
asking anyone to do this, so I wonder who it could be?" So one day the
prostitute stayed back, and after some time the crippled man's wife came and
began cleaning. The prostitute approached her and said, "Why are you doing
this?" She replied, "My husband is very attracted to you, and he wants to meet
with you, but we are very poor, and cannot afford to pay. So instead I am
offering some service. The prostitute said, "Very well, send him over tonight."
That night the prostitute prepared a sumptuous feast of rice, dal, sabji etc,
and she served a portion of each of these preparations onto two plates, one gold
and one silver. When the man arrived, she requested him to partake of the food
she had prepared him. "Please take from the silver plate.," she told him.
After he had finished all the food on the silver plate, the prostitute told him
to take from the gold plate. When he had finished, the prostitute inquired from
the man, "Now, did you taste the difference?" Surprised, the man replied, "What
difference? These are exactly the same preparations, only served on different
is in your wife's body, but actually the ingredients are the same. Only the
covering is different."
