While the author was deeply engrossed in hearing a story from the Ramayana about Hanuman, a scorpion unexpectedly appeared on his right shoulder. As described in Chapter 22, the creature sat completely still, as if it too were an attentive listener. The author, realizing the danger, carefully gathered the scorpion into his upper cloth, took it to the garden, and released it. He noted that despite the scorpion's terrifying nature and the real fear he felt, he did not dare to kill it, remembering Baba's firm command, and attributed the peaceful outcome to the power of listening to the holy story.
Can you describe the incident with the scorpion that occurred while the author was listening to holy stories?
