Question

In the story "The Neglected Senses", what does Choden think caused her blindness?

Answer 1

Answer:

Choden believed that when her mother was pregnant with her, a cow kicked her mother's stomach and that led to her blindness.

Explanation:

Choden was a young blind girl who was pink-cheeked and loves to smile. She was one year younger than Yangchen, who was also blind. It is said that most of the time, her eyes were shut but sometimes, she would open her left eye as if it were consuming the color and light that it sees.

Choden responded to the narrator when asked about what caused her blindness while Choden and Yangchen were guiding the narrator. This belief of hers shows how Tibetan people were conscious about reincarnation and karma.

So, this explains the answer.
