sitting on my branch
in the state of wonderment
is there more to the story ?

Any how as i was saying the yogi did not ask to do anything with the squirrel during his life and due to good karma associated with not killing the little animal he was given a boon in his life. He saw God and as he started to talk God said "What now?" Well u see I have tried all my life to practice ahimsa... all my life and as a result I had to re-shingle my house several times and repair the roof numerable times. If I have to come back again please do not let me endure the pesty damages of a professional squirrel. Well God chuckled at this and said due to your accumulated good karma; i will spare u the travails of a pesty professional squirrel who eats so hungerly the very house in which you reside although at this point I think you are little nutty due to your having the company of your nut eating friend for so long.
So the next life....to be continued.
