The Guru and the tied up cat?

Question

A guru once owned a cat and he was very fond of it and took it to the service at his temple and tied it near a corner. In due course the guru died and his successor , feeling sorry for the cat continued to allow it to attened temple services as long as it was tied in the corner.but one day the cat died and the worshippers found that they missed its presence during the service and got hold of another cat and did the same by tying it near the alter.
Three hundred years down the track it was the same story. There was always a tied up cat in the Temple and no one knew how this tied up cat story originated.
the same goes for all Religious beliefs too. Do you all agree with me?

Answer 1

look, as per the hindu tradition, every ritual has a purpose somewhere along the line v have forgotten about this,
for e.g breaking a coconut represents breaking ur EGO then sweet water will flow through it

Answer 2

You are honestly and truthfully clueless---to tie a story about the originating of a seemingly senseless tradition with the foundations and applications of religions and theologies that have been the heart felt motivations and life changing fundamentals for millions is as shallow and misguided as it gets---you are truely clueless--if you ever had a heart felt --personal experience with the spiritual you would not wonder so close to the edge as you do--your stories are stale and your premises are just plain wrong and this personal drive you feel--- compelled to relentlessly pursue turning people away from God and things religious is down right odd ---as one pocessed--is this the case ???
