One day many years ago at a school in South London a teacher said to the class
of 5-year-olds, "I'll give $20 to the child who can tell me who was the most
famous man who ever lived."
An Irish boy put his hand up and said, "It was St. Patrick." The teacher said,
"Sorry Alan, that's not correct."
Then a Scottish boy put his hand up and said, "It was St. Andrew." The teacher
replied, "I'm sorry, Hamish, that's not right either.
Finally, a Gujarati boy raised his hand and said, "It was Jesus Christ." The
teacher said, "That's absolutely right, Jayant, come up here and I'll give you
the $20."
As the teacher was giving Jayant his money, she said, "You know Jayant, since
you are Gujarati, I was very surprised you said Jesus Christ."
Jayant replied, "Yes, in my heart I knew it was Lord Krishna, but business is
business!"
