Yes this is true.It happened yesterday here after the death of a 45 year old woman.Soon after the death of that woman a monkey from nowhere in the middle of the night went straight next to the body of the woman , it removed the cloth which was covered on her face , gave her a kiss on the forehead and put some flowers on the body of the woman. It stayed the whole night next to the body and till the last rites were performed.It even helped in burying her by putting the soil. I was really astonished to see when it was aired on TV some time back..what is more astonishing is the fact that some 1 1/2 years back the woman's husband had died and the villagers say that something is related to the monkey and the late husband.. What are your thoughts?

Oh, that's really sweet...Maybe the monkey is the woman's pet or something.

Thanks for sharing, such incidents are common in India, among hindus mostly, the monkey might be rebirth of some relative of the woman.

Wow that is an amazing story. I am wondering what was going on in the monkey's head that made him do that?

It really makes me think that there was some kind of a special connection between the woman and the monkey. But, I guess that there is really no way that we are able to determine that. Another thought could be that the monkey possesses the soul of the woman's late husband and he wanted to do something special for his wife as a last act of love for her.

hi, i heard such stories, earlier, and after seeing such incidents, we have to believe, that , these things has got to do something with the people in our family who left us/passed away , and as our Hindu scriptures ,say, the people,who loved us will come back in one or the other form, to help us,or to be with us, and i started believing those after seeing such incidents.
