Quote::::::::::::
There was a rich person who had a daughter with a flat nose.
The father wanted to get this girl married.
Every person who came and looked at the girl used to go away, although they were attempted by the wealth.
In those days, persons who could perform plastic surgery were not available.
In desperation, he announced that he would give plenty of money to anyone who would marry his daughter.
The marriage was performed, and thereafter the couple developed considerable faith in God.
They visited many temples, went on many pilgrimages and bathed in many sacred rivers.
They met a saint who advised them that he, who created the nose, alone, could bring it back to normal.
Although they had lot of wealth, they were not happy at all.
The girl used to feel others were looking at her and making fun.
She suggested to her husband that they should both go to the lonely Himalayas and spend a month there in that manner.
He agreed and they did go.
The girl had a great desire to get back her nose, so she began to pray to God in great earnestness.
God appeared, due to her good luck, and asked her what she wanted.
She asked for the grant of a good looking big nose.
God said, so shall it be and granted her the boon.
As soon as God disappeared, she looked at her face. She looked at the big nose and felt that she had become uglier than before.
She prayed again more earnestly and God appeared again and asked her what she wanted.
She said that she did not want that big nose.
God said, so shall it be and granted her the boon. She immediately found that her nose had completely disappeared.
The moral of this story is that although God is present before you, playing with you and talking with you, you do not know what to ask.
