Question

Explain why Muni could not progress beyond getting two items of his request.

Answer 1

muni was already in debt for the items that he purchased in credit from the shopkeeper such as the oil that he had got for his holy bath. so when the shopkeeper brought up the topic of paying the ancient debt muni deterred from going any further in his request for the items. also when muni said that he would pay the debt in the first of the next month as his daughter would be sending him money on account of his fiftieth birthday the shopkeeper said that it was exactly what he said the last time and according to the shopkeeper muni was around 70 years old. so muni could not go any further but left the shop angrily.
