A saint was explaining with intense feelings, the results of taking the shelter of God and consequences of performing bad karma. Among the audience was a dacoit who had planned to rob the saint and other prosperous listeners after the lecture was over. But he got shaken from inside when he heard the life transforming stories of Ajamil, Ganika, Tulsidas and Bilva mangal. The way the stories were narrated forced him to think over his own deeds and do self-introspection. After the lecture ended, the dacoit fell into the feet of the saint and told him all his pervious sins and asked how to correct his behavior and follow the right path. Those instructions changed his life. From then he started living a life centered on God, and the hole he had dug up with his sins, he started covering it with selfless social service.
