Today morning while reading some phrases by Guru Ramdaas ji (IV Sikh guru), one interesting annals crossed my mind that made me smile and transported me to an unknown place where I had a small chat with the protagonist of that tale for a fraction of a second…
When Guru Nanak came to marry Mata Sulakhani in Gurdaspur, he was made to sit near an infirm and half-made brick wall…well, what could be the purpose?? His sisters-in-law and other ladies had planned a prank on this poor groom!! They wished that the wall would fall on him…: D
But it did not happen so…The wall did not fall…AND THAT WALL STILL STANDS TODAY…firm…
Those were the days…such bold pranks…and now when one of my cousins suggested to sprinkle salt on kaju burfi for another sister’s groom, my mother got senti…”na beta, o ta inna sahu munda”…ha ha!!
So Mr. God, must have been tough time then, huh??
Weren’t they aware that you were not an ordinary man…sure they must have been…but still…human nature…and you spoilt their amusement, maybe disappointed them…?? Maybe you could have done something else to save your prestige at the same time keep those ladies happy. Maybe making the wall fall to other side…Making it lighter than cotton while falling…I’m sure Mr. Krishna would have done something more interesting!!
But then this wall would not have stood till this date, rite? A symbol of your Name till eternity…A symbol of your greatness…so that people have reasons to believe you…
So that people have reasons to be afraid of you…??
You take so pride in whatever you do…left your wife with two sons…to start something that would get converted into yet another religion??
Well…I don’t know why things happened as they have happened…why things are happening as they are…but you have ‘fantabulous’ way of handling things in the best possible way…
So, you can remain in charge as long as…………………………………………….you want!!!
... so finally did u all sprinkled salt in burfi or not?? lol - sonam
