God was in the process of
creating the universe. And he was explaining to his subordinates:
"Look everything should be in balance. For every 10 deer
there should be a lion. Look here my fellow angels, here is the
country of the United States. I have blessed them with prosperity
and money. But at the same time I have given them insecurity and
tension. And here is Africa. I have given them beautiful nature.
But at the same time, I have given them climatic extremes.
And here is South America. I have given them lots of forests.
But at the same time, I have given them lesser land so that they
would have to cut off the forests. So you see fellows,
everything should be in balance."
One of the angels asked, "God, what is this beautiful
country here?" God said, "Aha...that is the crown piece
of all.
INDIA. My most precious creation. It has understanding and
friendly people.
Sparkling streams, serene mountains. A culture which speaks of
the great tradition that they live. Technologically brilliant and
with a heart of gold..."
The angel was quite surprised "But God you said everything
should be in balance."God replied "Just look at the
neighbors I gave them!!"
