స్వార్థం పోయేదెప్పుడు?

1.    

పసుపు, ఎరుపు రంగుల కలయికే సంధ్య

ప్రాతస్సంధ్యైతే అది ఒక రోజుకి శుభారంభం

ఎన్నో ఆశలు ఫలించడానికి మొదటి మెట్టు

పక్షులు పొట్టకూటికి బయలుదేరే సమయమది.

Fear of Death- Part II (concld)

           

(contd from the  previous post)

       Padma came of college- going age. The typical day at her college started with a prayer which requested God to take them from mortality to immortality (‘Mrityorma    Amritamgamaya’), among other things. When ever she uttered the word, ‘Mrityorma’, if the face of any human showed up in her vision, by any chance, she shuddered. She did not want anyone, who may have knocked the doors of her thoughts at the time of she uttering the word, to pay with life on account of that. So, she tried to work out a solution- she wanted to consciously remember someone dead to symbolize mortality. A plan-B was put in place to remember the king Cobra, whose bite was a sure-shot cause of death- so that the horrendous bite may be an antidote to poison in life!

       At last, some initiative had been taken in overcoming the fear!
