Asides, The Other View

Dog in the well

In Punjabi folklore there is story of a dog that fell into the village well and died. People asked a wise-man what they should do so that the water doesn’t get infected and people suffer from the diseases because of the dead dog. The wise-man asked them to take out 100 bucket loads of water from well so the well is dis-infected again. The wise-man visited the village and drank water; it tasted bad and stank. He asked the villager if they took out 100 buckets full of water as advised. They said they instead took out 500 buckets. As the wise-man was thinking of the possible reason, an old man said, “the dog is still inside!”.
