My first day of visiting the Kamis and the shop, Tirtha Kami and his family
visited me. They brought me a beautiful rooster as a welcome gift. I told
them that I couldn't accept a gift. They pleaded with me to take the rooster
as a heartfelt gift from their family. I couldn't disappoint that family and
accepted the rooster.
Since I do not kill any living thing, I let the rooster go free on my father's
farm. The next day I went outside to check on my rooster and he was long
gone. I thought he didn't like my father's farm and went to find a better
place to live.
I asked the Sarki's helper if he knew where my rooster was. With a big smile
on his face he told me my rooster was already in the toilet. He ate my
rooster for his dinner the night before. This made me very sad, but there
was nothing I could do about it.
Later, when I told Tirtha about my rooster's plight, he laughed and said, "It
was a gift for you, sister, and someone else got it." I have posted a photo
of Tirtha's family and my rooster sitting together with me in my father's
living room.
