Can you recount the story Baba told a traveler about a snake, a frog, and their deep-seated enmity?

📖 Chapter 47

Yes, Baba shared a profound story with a traveler after intervening in a confrontation between a snake and a frog. As detailed in Chapter 47, Baba addressed the creatures by name, calling the snake 'Veerabhadrappa' and the frog 'Basappa,' questioning why their 'bone-deep enmity' persisted even after being reborn into these forms. Upon hearing Baba's words, the snake immediately fled into the water, releasing the frog, which then hid in the bushes. This astonished the traveler, prompting Baba to later explain the origin of their mutual hatred, which stemmed from a previous life involving a dispute over a temple renovation.
