Kanjibhai thanked the guru and continued on his way. As Kanjibhai continued to visit temples in Delhi, Sarnath, UP, Maharashtra, Orissa, Andhra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and all around the Country, he found more phones, with the same sign and price, and got the same answer from each Guru.

Finally, he arrived in Trivandrum.

Upon entering a temple, behold, he saw the usual golden Telephone.

But THIS time, the sign read "Calls:1.26 Rupees/Minute." Fascinated, Kanjibhai asked the Guru.

"Guru, Ji, I have been in cities all across the country and in each temple, I have found this golden telephone and have been told it is a direct line to Heaven and that I could talk to God, but, in the other temples the cost was Rs.1,000 a minute.

Your sign reads 1.26 Rupees/Minute. Why?"

The Guru, smiling, replied, "Son, you're in Kerala now. This is God's own country... and it's a local call."
