Here is when we reach the first time where a man who understood the divine would have acted differently. Although it was correct of him to take in a love the blind boy, it was wrong of him to simply ignore his family in this process, for if he understood that although his family had mistreated him it was still a part of his Dharma to love, protect, and provide for them. The next time there were two perspectives and only one which was seen was when the boy sold his music to a record company. Although it was good of him that he attempted to spread his music throughout the world his motives were wrong. Although he was spreading spiritual music that would help people become in touch with god, he was not doing it for the good of people, but rather in order to make money. The last and most important issue, is when the blind boy agreed to sing in front of a rich man, in private in his home. As he was singing for the wealthy sahib he throat was slit. And when the narrator questioned why this was done he was simply answered, "Why does a man steal an object of worship so no one but himself can enjoy it?"(pg 90). Now if the narrator truly at this point had come to understand anything of the divine he would have been able to see the answer to his own question. Although the boy was only singing the words of god, he was still killed. Now although he was seemingly doing nothing wrong there was something there that the narrator could not understand due to the fact that he still did not understand much of the divine. .
In one of the next stories we encounter a girl who is also a musician, as the narrator is walking through the bazaar he sees a girl from behind. As he examines her he is taken a back by her beauty "The thick hair wound at the back of her slender neck and her elegant fingers holding each painting to the light. I was imagining the beauty of her face"(pg 194). However soon enough he comes to see what her face truly looks like and becomes appalled "I gasped, astonished that she should be so ugly when I had imagined her so beautiful" (pg 195).
