whereas , Mr easton seems money minded from conversation he may be spending life rougly beccaause he says his butterfly days are over.An impoverished, low-caste goat herder who lives in the fictional South Indian village of Kritam. At one time, Muni possessed a large and healthy herd of goats and sheep, but the herd dwindled away over time until only two were left. Due to his now-impoverished state and bad reputation in the village that makes it impossible to buy goods on credit, Muni barely manages to find enough to eat every day. The two scraggly goats that make up the remainder of Muni’s herd serve only as a bitter reminder of how far he has fallen in the world. Despite this, he leads an emotionally rich life in which he travels each day to sit on the pedestal of a grand statue to graze his goats, watch the highway nearby, reminiscence on the past, and ponder mythological stories. Muni’s desire to experience the world outside his tiny village of narrow-minded people leads him to this statue beside the highway every day. One day, he comes into contact with the vast world outside his village when he meets the red-faced foreigner, whose car runs out of gas beside the statue. Their interaction culminates in a grand misunderstanding in which the foreigner offers Muni money for the horse statue, and Muni, looking at the situation through his own cultural lens, believes that the foreigner is offering to buy his goats. Instead of viewing time as finite and linear, Muni sees it as limitless and cyclical, and instead of seeing the world in terms of monetary value, he values the emotional richness of storytelling, which is interwoven with his own Hindu spirituality.
