Boss died.
"Why are you sending me to Hell?" he demanded of God. "Didn't I recite prayers everyday, morning, afternoon and evening?"
God said, "Yes, Boss, you recited all the prayers. But you were only bothered about the pronunciations. You were not bothered about me."
"But..." said Boss with his characteristic diplomacy, 'you are God. You should not be so egoistic."
"God is the surrender of the Ego, Boss," said God. "Since you are still trying to be the Boss, go to Hell and learn to be the servant. When you learn to serve, you will also learn to recite the prayers with some pronunciation mistakes. Then I will accept you in Heaven."
