Once Gautam Budha entered into a state capital. The king of that state had made arrangements for a big Yagna. There were many Brahmins, they were chanting mantras and putting ahuti. A goat was also standing with tilak on his forehead. Budha asked them what are you doing?. They replied that they are going to sacrifice this goat.
Gautam Budha again said politely "You do yagna, put ahuti, chant mantra, offer bhog to Brahmins, this is all fine, but why sacrifice this poor goat? People said that the goat will get moksh, mukti, he will go to swarag(heaven).
Budha said "Did this goat request you to sent him to swarag. You are forcefully sending him to swarag. Are you sure he will get swarag? People had no answer.
Your old parents often say we want to go to heaven, we want moksh. Then send your old parents to swarag by sacrificing them. Would you do that? No. Then why this poor goat.
God - The Creator
