Dream And Reality

 

“ Would you mind, if I ask for a small amount of your petty cash. I know it’s not good to ask someone for money whom I don’t know and who don’t know me too. I can’t event promise that I will return it, as I know my limitations. But I can assure you that I’ll not use that merge sum for any unfair means.

The well dressed youth in smart navy blue suit don’t seems that he need money. He have a bright charming face and as people believed that face is the index to mind, he couldn’t be rejected. He collected money from each stranger he met on his way. The excellent way of communicating with the strangers impelled them not to ask any questions. After all it was just a matter of a small amount of petty cash.

“ Myself is Rozer, It will be a great pleasure to know the name of a person who gave me a petty cash and where he belongs”, with these words, the youth in navy blue suit put forward a piece of paper.

Though It was a trial and error activity, it worked well and at the end of the day Rozer collected a nice sum of money. For the passersby, he became a mysterious character, but his way of talking and holding the head in high esteem made them believe that he wants the money for a noble cause, for a dream to manifest in reality.

The human being is born with some innate qualities which in coming days slows down due to the impact of the environment and the society. He is born intelligent, born with a logical mind. He knows a fair touch and a bad touch before he is trained in the global school. He is born with an unassailable moral compass. But just as a piece of iron can be transformed into a sharp fatal weapon if molded in a perfect way, the same it can rust and vanish, if not looked after and preserved carefully.

 

 

“Today’s task is to ask some money from a stranger and letting him know of the unsure probabilities of returning the money. Once again I am repeating, you are not to beg, but collect with your art of speaking Remember, in whatever you do, "it's okay to dream," for dreams do come true... ”.

Rozer recalled the morning when  Mr. Kashikoi , his master announced the unusual task of the day in the morning class. Tough he succeeded in the task, he was not sure was it a legal task which he performed most sincerely and wholeheartedly without having even a single drop of water throughout the day.

Collecting money without begging, without burglary, without any work and without any unfair means is not an easy task. Besides it becomes more tougher if the cause is unknown.

Shinpi Takina road of Natsukashii Valley a spiritual refuge blessed by Redric, whom the natives of the valley address as Tenshi(angel). Decades ago Redric, a seeker of truth found himself in quest of Moksa, liberation from rebirth and his holy grail was to reach the southernmost part of the globe. In his journey, he never estimated the time nor calculated it. His journey and days of fasting remained an encouragement     for the people. There he established the old school of thoughts TADEN EXISTENCE.

All the learners gathered in the old fashioned assembly hall. They know after completion of each Punya Karma(holy task) an individual is given a higher task which will decide his fate or the final destination.

“ Rozer have accomplished the Punya Karma but unlike other times, this time the fund will be used in a different piece of work”, as Tenshi announced, all the learners were astonished.

“ Master, won’t the funds be added to the previous one”, one of the learners couldn’t stop his query.

Tenshi with a mysterious smile looked at Rozer as if they had a silent talk. In fact, when the student is ready, the teacher appears. Rozer knows what they are given to do and what they are doing are totally different from each other but few of the learners understood.

“ Rozer, if I left it to you , what you would do with the collected sum. The entire school wants to know. After all, out of hundreds you are the one who accomplished the Punya Karma without any questions and doubts”.

An unexpected answer hit everybody’s common sense which is generally very uncommon.

Rozer started his speech in the most interesting way.

“ Hello ,old school of TADEN EXISTENCE, are you all still alive. We are here to learn the mysterious art of not to be attacked, not to be questioned, and not to be defeated and to be the Masters of a natural feeling that makes people know what is right and wrong and how they should behave. We are to develop the mastery of unassailable moral compass. This is what I learnt from Master Tenshi. Now if I am asked what I would do with the collected sum, I would take as the final task, return each and every penny to everyone from whom I have collected”.

Tenshi gave a satisfactory smile,   “ Go for it”.

Rozer took the blessing of his Master and cohorts and set out for finalizing his unfinished task. Rozer started his journey as a disciple of Tenshi in old school of TADEN EXISTENCE in Shinpi Takina road of Natsukashii Valley .

 He took out the list of the people who gave him a small amount of their petty cash, and wondered will it be a folly to go and return what they had already given him. 

Stuck in a dilemma and unable to return to school without the task bring unaccomplished , Rozer found himself surrounded by ill effects of overconfidence. Rozer made up his mind not to return and went to one of the holy hills of the Natsukashii Valley for a temporary refuge. At the top of the hill Rozer sat in a traditional Zen posture and closed his eyes.

Without food and water for many days, he entered a state of transition. Rozer found his immortal energy escaping out from his mortal psyche. The energy crossed the horizon and headed towards old school of TADEN EXISTENCE.

“ Where lies my fault Master,          I wanted to show them that humanity is still alive. Some people believe that the society is loosing it’s moral compass, which is the cause of several crimes. We are thankful that life in Natsukashii Valley is free of all evils, old school of TADEN EXISTENCE being the root of preserving moral values”.

A bright light merged into the entire being of Rozer, and he felt his Master talking with him

“Don’t you think, they all believed in a stranger who asked from them a little amount of their petty cash. Isn’t it enough Rozer,that they have the commonsense, a natural feeling to know what is right and wrong and how they should behave with you. You are not ignored. Even if they don’t expect you at their door steps but you can’t say that you won’t expect them at your doorsteps”.

Rozer came out of his hibernation understood the secret call. He walked downhill targeting to reach old school of TADEN EXISTENCE. He don’t know how many days he passed in the hills. But to his surprised he was well, fit and fine in spite of long days of fasting. He felt a high jet of energy running in his veins. As he walked towards the school, he visualize several people meditating inside a circle for his wellbeing. Rozer could easily recognize the faces of the meditators; those were the people who gave him a little sum of petty money at his request. He rushed towards the old school and saw a human energy circle whose center was still vacant.

“ You passed your test Rozer, now you are to take the charge of Tenshi in Natsukashii. Though you don’t know, but it’s a tradition of Natsukashii, the people who willingly gives the little sum of their petty cash comes to the school after twenty one days. They meditate here for the wellbeing of the Tenshi”.



“ But Master, how they all know , they have to attend the meditating circle. They don’t know from where I belong and why I requested the money from each of them”.

“My dear Rozer, the very day you started collecting funds in a unusual way, the particular people who helped you knows it was a search for the new Tenshi. They waited for your return. They don’t expect you to return the sum but will be followers in your spiritual life. You owe a debt to them and they want the debt to be cleared. You have the strongest moral compass of anyone I know. Let it flourish in the valley of Natsukashii”.

With there words, Master Tenshi signaled Rozer to take place in the center of the energy circle. As he sat on the center, Master Tenshi took his last breath and left his corporeal body .

“Master,……Master, don’t leave me alone”, shouted Rozer, now the Tenshi of Natsukashii.

A voice from within energized each and every cell of Rozer( the now Tenshi).

“I am in you, Rozer. You will always find me in you guided by the unassailable moral compass
