In a viral Instagram video, the man is shown seated on the ground, enjoying what appears to be a meal at a temple. The peaceful moment turned unusual when a monkey approached him, but instead of pushing the animal away, the man welcomed it to share his meal.

Calm Interaction with the Monkey Surprises Viewers

As the video unfolds, viewers see the monkey reaching over and dipping its hand into one of the food compartments on the man’s plate, likely sampling some curd.

His serene demeanor and openness toward the monkey touched viewers, who saw a beautiful display of compassion. The video caption reads, “Bajrang Bali himself came to the temple of Bajrang Bali and enjoyed bhog. Hail Lord Bajrang Bali.”

Internet Reactions Praise the Man’s Kindness

The man’s actions received widespread admiration from viewers. One user commented, “Respect for uncle,” while another wrote, “How pure one must be for an animal to choose you in a room full of other humans.” The scene struck an emotional chord for many, with one person noting, “My eyes are filled with tears. Maybe uncle is blessed by God, which is why Hanuman Ji shared his supper with him.” Another viewer remarked, “This is so pure and beautiful. My eyes are moist watching this,” while a user added, “When an animal chooses you, you must have some aura.” Another simply commented, “Animals approach only kind humans.”

This video has reminded people of the beauty in small acts of kindness and the bond that can exist between humans and animals, especially when met with understanding and compassion.
