White कुछ लोगों के मिलने का गम यूँ भी होता है, कि काश वो हमसे पहले मिले होते.. हमारे पल उनके लम्हों के दामन से जुड़े होते.. वक्त बिताते हम कुछ खास उनके साथ.. जो बीत गया हमारी बदनसीबी का; वो वक्त... उनके साथ जिये होते।। ©Himanshi Bharti

White "The Brahmin who could not eat -3" "Hmm! All right. Lakshmi, you are the Goddess 😇 of wealth and good luck! You go and convince the Brahmin to release Bidhata," said Lord Vishnu. So Lakshmi knocked at the Brahmin's door. "Yes? Oh, is it Goddess Lakshmi? How come you are here?" "Release Bidhata," she pleaded. This annoyed the Brahmin who shouted, wife, get me a broom 🧹 to spank this self-assuming Goddess! Hearing this, Lakshmi fled. It was then decided to send Goddess Saraswati, the Goddess of education and knowledge to negotiate with the Brahmin. The Brahmin heard her out and again lost his temper. "Get my broom. This Goddess gave me a tough time learning the alphabet. How dare she assume I will listen to her? Saraswati fled too. Lord Shiva decided to give it a try. He too arrived at the Brahmin's doorstep. Now, the Brahmin was an ardent devotee of Lord Shiva. He bowed low and with folded hands, said, "Sire, I am blessed by your presence and cannot refuse to do as you say. But I will have you know how Bidhata spoiled my happiness all these years!" The Brahmin related his plight. Shiva listened intently and when the Brahmin finished, Shiva said, "Yes, I understand. But do as I say and I will give you a permanent abode at Kailash when you need it. The Brahmin acceded and opened his mouth wide to let the frog out. After this incident, things changed for the Brahmin. Poverty did not trouble him and he saw happy times with his family. Eventually, after his demise, he took up permanent residence at Mount Kailash, Lord Shiva's home 🏠! ©Sanjoy Khuman
