Not For You, Swamiji!

I went into a video store and said, "I would like to buy a nice, spiritual Hindi movie."

The shopkeeper said, "For you, it will be free."

I said, "I don't take anything free."

He said, "We sell it for $12. For you, $10."

I said, "Fine."

There was one movie named "Trishul." I said, "I have a student named Trishul, so I will take this one."

The man said, "Oh no, Swamiji. That is not for you!"

See how nice the shopkeeper was. He knew that it was a romantic movie. He was sincere.
