B. R. Sridhar Maharaja told this story:

"Once during the time of Lord Rama everything was going well. All were content. Anyone who had any complaint could bring it before Lord Rama personally.

"One day all were astonished to see a dog come before Lord Rama with a complaint: he had been peacefully taking a nap on the sidewalk and a brahmana kicked him. 'I want you to punish him' said the dog.

"Lord Rama thought it over and he agreed that a brahmana was supposed to be patient and kind, see the Lord in everyone's heart, and not show disrespect to any living being. Rama then asked the dog what he thought the punishment should be.

"'Give him the position of Temple President of the biggest Matha in the
land,' said the dog. Everyone gasped: 'What?! What kind of a punishment is that?!"

"The dog said, 'In that position he will be able to make Vaisnava aparadha
many times a day. Over the course of his career he will make aparadha to
thousands of devotees. Then he will serve so much time in hell for those
Vaisnava aparadha.

"Then afterwards he will be very lucky if he is reborn as a homeless street
dog to atone for his sins. I should know, because I held that position of
Temple President in my former birth."
