Cut half of the hen for egg

Damodara dasa: Prabhupada would often tell the story of "half a hen." A man once owned a hen. Although he valued the hen for the eggs it laid, he did not like having to pay to feed it. The foolish man therefore decided to cut the hen in half and keep only the half that laid eggs. In this way, Prabhupada would point out how errors arise from insufficient knowledge.
