He asked with a smile, why all heads don’t have brain like Einstein or Thomas Edison? I mesmerized without uttering any word and just thrown my confusion on his question. Since long, this question has been tickling my bones with one or other ways. I tried to ask this from others and also taken help of many religious and philosophical writings but never got satisfactory answer. In confusion I started peeping towards distant end of fields which were covered with green crops from the bus window. Then saw him with in hope to get answered from him but was not very sure to get it. He realized my vulnerability and said, because their (Einstein and Edison) souls were matured souls. This is not the first birth they have taken but after so many births they had reached to the level of having great minds. I showed little hesitation on accepting his words and offered a conclusion to him that the souls with first or second birth would always been the notorious ones.
He smiled and said ‘always two types of characters we believe into good and bad. Generally we can classify all souls into these two categories. The souls having initial births are always so juvenile; they get attracted towards good or bad and started doing related deeds. The souls who get attracted towards good during every birth, finally reach to the level of a saint. The same way the souls get attracted towards bad things, gradually increase the level of their bad deeds during every birth and finally reached the level of spoiled soul.’
Time permitted me to take advantage of the situation and in the process I asked few more questions from this man.
Is there any way to concert spoiled soul into good?
I asked. Why not, all religions are there to show the light of good and bad to every individual. None of the religions or sects guides people to do bad things. He started chanting verses of Guru Granth Sahib and from the Kuran and narrated the meanings which were almost the same.
Do all good souls are being addressed as God after several births?
No, they get fuse in the divine power, which is known as God. All religions indicate about the supreme power but no religion giving picture of God. All good human being get fused in that supreme power. The examples of these souls are like – Rama, Krishna, Mohammad, Guru Nanak, Budhha, Mahavira, and Jesus and got united with the God. They are also known as different incarnation of God.
What or who is God?
God is a supreme power, who is omnipotent and immortal. Who has never been seen by anyone but controlling each and every minute thing in this universe. We call it OM, AUM, OMKAR, GOD, ALLAH. None of the religion has described about the nature, character, look of God, they just agreed to HIS presence. HE is there in us, in our emotions that’s why we behave differently at every occasion by doing the same thing. For example – I will give you a chocolate if you run to touch that tree and come back within one minute. He would go and come back quickly with happy emotions. The same thing I will ask him to do as punishment, then his emotions would surely be different.
I was amazed with his knowledge about the spirituality, his behaviour and his way of presenting his words positively across all my doubts. Few nearby passengers were also got engaged in this discussion, he replied on everyones’ queries. We both were in hurry to reach at the destination but bus was almost one hour late from its actual schedule. I was furious on driver for his slow driving, he alerted the driver to take care of the schedule and then calmed down. He was going to miss a project on reaching late but he was not that much apprehensive as I was. I was surprised with his calmness over getting late. He might have read few questions in my eyes and just started with the words that this bus is also old like him and whole natural stuffs joined together to make the reason of slow speed. All has already been planned by the God, our meeting, our discussion, our journey by this bus and also our adjacent seats.
This was a memorable meeting of mine with an unknown person. I had not asked his name or his identification but finding him a saint who is quite near to God and given me the mantra of life. This has also helped me to decode the unsolved mystery of life.
Lying on the bed, I started thinking about me and my world. I am quite happy with my life but somewhere something is missing. What is it? Many people came across and given a lot from their lives to me. I too found them as an integral part of my life. If one by one I think about the care and love I have been looking for, is still in my desires. Though the time has almost gone, so expectations from the friends are also getting minimized day by day which giving satisfaction to my unconvinced relationships. Sometime I had put everything in relationship but dint get the same in lieu of it or might be my desires always asked for more and more. Sometime others had put almost everything for being in relationship with me but I never got that sense which had forced me to accept that even for a moment. Whatever may be the case of they are quite near to me, they given their honest or dishonest thoughts about me as known one which are always quite pleasing. I have been quite reserved in whole of my life and found myself with under developed senses till now. I spent my childhood with my cousin, always felt his pain in as mine but lost him when he stabbed me from far behind and treat him the most fictitious person of my life. He tore my heart in countless parts. I was breathless when he ditched me and now he became the person whom I hate utmost. In my initial years of schooling, one of my friend fought with few of the students who beaten me. I admired this friend of mine and after few years able to do the same for him when I fought with few others. This incident filled me with confidence. But suddenly in race of money he lost somewhere from my sight too. I still remember the day when I knocked the door of girl’s house to convey one of my best friends’ message to his beloved one. I tried my best for him all the time but when I saw him torturing his father, I lost faith on him. One of my friends was under debt for the sake of showing his status to his relatives. During my university days too, I was ditched by a person who was very close to me that he done on terms of one time meal. During my job again on whom I trusted opened my life like a notice board. In whole of this journey, I always tried to be serious in every moment of my life but also enjoyed my own follies with my rare friends. I have not been best in any front of my life but never been so bad too. This thoughtful discussion with myself come out with the answer of my slight dissatisfaction from the life. TRUST, yes this is ‘trust’ which I am still searching for and whom I can blindly trust on.
