Once a Brahmin got a lamb, as a gift from one of his devotees. While on his way
back home he was spotted by three crooks. The crooks thought of some mischievous
plan to snatch the lamb from him. While the Brahmin had walked some distance one
of the crooks appeared in his path and asked why he was carrying a dog. A
Brahmin should not carry a dog. The Brahmin got angry and asked the crook to
mind his own business. After a while the second crook appeared before the
Brahmin and asked why he was carrying a dead calf. Once again the Brahmin made
the same reaction. After a while later the third crook appeared before him and
asked why he was carrying a donkey. This puzzled the Brahmin so much that he
threw off the lamb and moved ahead. The three crooks succeeded in their plan.
