The Transformation of Valiyo In the heart of a dense jungle, a notorious robber named Valiyo made his living through robbery. He was feared by travellers and revered by his family, who relied on his stolen goods to sustain their lives. One day, Sage Narada, the ever-mischievous celestial bard known for his devotion to Lord Vishnu, happened to pass through the jungle. As always, Narada was dressed in simple robes, carrying his veena, and chanting “Narayana, Narayana!” in a melodious rhythm. Valiyo spotted him from afar and mistook him for a wealthy priest. “This man must have hidden riches,” he thought, eyeing Narada’s attire and veena with suspicion. With a wicked grin, Valiyo drew a sharp knife from the folds of his dhoti and concealed himself in the bushes, ready to strike.

In a quaint cottage lived two inseparable friends, Kitty and Louise. One fine day, they decided to embark on a picnic adventure in the nearby forest. Eagerly, they packed an assortment of essentials including food, a kite for amusement, a basket, clothing, a mat, and various other items needed for a perfect picnic.
Upon reaching the forest, their chosen picnic spot, the friends revealed in the joyous moments they shared. The highlight of their day, however, occurred as they engaged in flying a kite. Unexpectedly, a formidable eagle swooped down, tearing their kite and lifting both Kitty and Louise in its powerful claws.
The eagle soared through the skies, carrying them to the far reaches of the universe, where it released them on a diminutive celestial body named Eris. Overwhelmed with emotion, Kitty and Louise wept bitterly.
In their distress, they turned to prayer, beseeching divine intervention. Miraculously, a brilliant flash of light appeared and spoke, advising them to close their eyes. Following this guidance, they found themselves back at their picnic spot, greeted by a letter.
The letter bore a reassuring message:
Dear children,
The flash of light was none other than I. You shall face no more tribulations. Enjoy your picnic.
Yours lovingly 😊,
The one you may know...
Filled with gratitude, Kitty and Louise expressed their heartfelt thanks to the benevolent deity for the salvation of their lives.
