One Punjabi girl was passing through a field where a religious man was offering his prayers. The law of religion does not allow crossing such a place. As the village girl was walking back, the religious man said:
- How rude you acted, oh girl, because it is a sin to walk through the place where a person offers prayers.
She stopped and asked:
-What do you mean by prayers?
- Prayers? - he exclaimed. - Don’t you know what they mean? Offering prayers is thinking about God.
The girl asked:
- How did you see me if you were thinking about God? When I passed here, I was thinking about my boyfriend and didn’t see you.
