Too Many Bananas
Written by Noni
Sringeri Srinivas was having
a very bad day.
Nobody wanted the sweet,
ripe bananas
he was growing on his farm.
Not his family.
Not his neighbour.
Not his friends.
Not the traders
who could sell the bananas
in far away markets.
And not even his cows!
“No, thank you,” they all said.
“The bananas are very sweet
but we have had too many.
We cannot eat any more!”
Poor Sringeri Srinivas!
What was he to do now
with his rich harvest of bananas?
He decided to seek help
from the Farmer’s Centre
in Doddooru,
a big town near his village.
Off he went
carrying the best crop of bananas.
Surely someone there
would have a good idea for him.
A few days later,
Sringeri Srinivas returned home
looking very happy.
He went back
to growing bananas on his farm.
But he did not offer the fruits
to anyone anymore.
Not to his family.
Not to his neighbour.
Not to his friends.
Not to the traders
who could sell the bananas
in far away markets.
And not even to his cows!
Everyone became very curious.
Where were all the bananas going?
One day, neighbour Shivanna
arranged a very big pooja.
The priest asked him
to get 108 ripe bananas
as an offering to the gods.
Shivanna ran to Sringeri Srinivas.
“I’m sorry for saying no to you before
but now I need 108 ripe bananas.
Can you help me, please?”
Sringeri Srinivas tapped his chin.
“Well, my crop has just been cut
but let me see what I can do.
You may start your pooja.
I will surely come.”
The pooja started.
The whole village came to watch.
The priest began chanting.
Soon it became time to offer bananas
to the gods.
Just then, in came Sringeri Srinivas
carrying a big bag.
From the bag,
he carefully took out 27 packets
and laid them out before the holy fire.
Each packet
was carefully wrapped in banana leaf.
On each one was written –
“High Quality Banana Halwa,
S.S. Farms.”
Sringeri Srinivas
offered one to the priest.
“Each one has the pulp of 4 bananas.
There are 27 packets.
So here are your 108 ripe bananas!”
The priest was so surprised
that he forgot to chant.
In the silence,
one child began to laugh.
Soon the whole village
was laughing and clapping.
Now we know
what Sringeri Srinivas does
with all the bananas that he grows!
