Discuss the following points.

Does his outlook on the jalebis episode change after class VIII? Does he see that episode in a new light?

संक्षेप में उत्तर

उत्तर

Up to class VIII, he kept wondering what harm it could have possibly caused anyone if God had sent him four rupees that day. However, later, he came to the conclusion that if God were to provide all for the asking, then man would still be living in nests such as vultures and crows, and would not have learnt the art of making jalebis. By this he meant that man would not make any efforts at all if God gave him everything he wished for.
