A week old cuckoo, with parents, use to reside in the ashram. Every evening the parents would leave the babies in the nest, come back in the morning and feed the babies all day. The other animals in the ashram had made several attempts to catch them in the parent's absence. Seeing this, a sadhak at the ashram decided to keep the baby indoors till the time mother returned. One day, the sadhak was out for some work. There was another sadhika in the ashram, but it was the time for her sandhya practices. If she would have gone to help out the cuckoo, she would have been late for her practice and if she would have gone after completing her practice, there was a chance parents not finding the baby and abandoning the nest. That would result in babies left unfed and at risk of their lives, for they were too young to be fed by others. What choice should she have made?
