Fable

A Fable written by me....

Hello friends, First time I’m writing any blog/story. I feel you will love the story.. It was in my conscious mind and I’m making it as a text today. 

A Dream in noon

That day I was very much tired and worried because of some problems of college and also because of some personal problems. I’m pursuing B.E. in electrical engineering from Shri vaishnav institute of technology and science, Indore. Many a times in my life I faced lots of problem. But on 17^th April'08, I was like a frustoo guy. I reached my home after college and without having any conversation with my mother I went to my room, and lay on bed. I closed my eyes and I don’t know when I got into a deep sleep.

From here the real story begins. In my dream, I saw that I was getting ready for my college. My flat is on fourth floor, I got out from my flat and called the lift, but it was not working I pressed the button three-four times, But ultimately I had to use stairs to go down. I hate using stairs before going college because of tiredness and sweating. After that in no time I reached my bus-stop. It is near CHL-Apollo hospital. From my stop more than 9 students and a faculty board the bus daily, but that day I was alone there. After five minute bus no. 3 came to my stop and I got in that, but strange that there was no one in the bus. It was the first time when I was alone in the bus. With a pleasant smile I asked to driver that “Bhaiyya aaj chutti hai kya” (Is it a holiday today), he also replied with smile but didn’t say anything.

Now all along the way I sat quietly on my seat. Bus entered in college, here what I saw is that there was no bus on the ground and also there was no student in the college, I was amazed. I asked the driver again “where are other buses and students” there was no reply. I stood up and looked at the driver but he was not there. I saw here and there but there was no one. Then I got out of the bus.

My college is divided in three buildings:- main block, electrical department and the new one MBA department. Main block is the front part of college behind that our department building comes. There is an adequate distance between both the buildings. Both the buildings are having three floors.

After getting out from the bus, I went towards electrical block. But I was frightening that there is no one in the college and the driver has also disappeared. My hands were trembling and whole body was shivering in fear. I sat on the stairs where we all friends used to sit. I was in fear and looking here and there for anyone, and praying to god “Please send someone here “. I never felt that much fear in my life before. Then I saw a guy who was coming from main building. He is in electronics branch, I knew him but his name was not coming in my mind. I asked him “Bro where are other students yaar”

He looked at me and said “Go to the canteen”. I moved towards canteen and again looked back but he was not there. Now my fear was increasing more & more. But I took steps towards canteen. To reach to the canteen I again crossed the main building and gazed towards ground but now the bus was also not there in which I reached college. Now its an horrible condition for me. Then I ran towards canteen, As soon as I put my first step in the canteen, suddenly there was an amazing glow spread through out the canteen. First time I was watching such a bright canteen but at that very instant I saw outside, there was a sudden darkness every where as if it was night. My fear increased more. This kind of thing was happening with me first time. Then I thought that many things in our life happens first time, but this was quite terrifying.

As I entered in the canteen, I saw at the right a girl standing and looking at another side. I called her “Hello ma’m who are you?” she turned to me. When I saw her, I was astonished, She was beautiful, attractive and young. Her face was completely round, but not because that she was fat or anything. Her hair were long and light brown in color. "Hi Ashish..." She said with a smile. "How do you know me" I asked her with vibrating voice because my whole body was shivering with fear. "Why are you so frightened, Don't take any tension, I'm not gonna kill you. I'm your friend, and please Don't ask me any question. I know you, this is sufficient for you". She said in a friendly manner. "I'm not having any kind of fear" I said. But truth was that I was frightened like anything, but how can I say this in front of a beautiful girl. "So what you want from me" I asked anxiously. "I am here to give you something" she said. "What you wanna give me!!" "I want to give you some basic principles of life which all people have forgot nowadays". She said as if she was my teacher. "So, why you selected me to give these principles". "Because I know that only you can spread all this to entire world and only you can converse all this in an appropriate manner to others". she said. "Okay..." I said hesitantly, I was thinking that how can I spread this all to whole world. "Now listen, Many a times you take tensions which you should not take. Even you don't know that what is happening in your life is all a mirage or illusion not the truth". I didn't get even a thing what she said but she was speaking continuously. "Don't ever try to be anybody else, You cannot be! You can deceive yourself and you can promise yourself and you can hope that someday you will become somebody else, but you cannot become. These are only illusions that you can go on having. These are dreams. They are not going to become realities ever. You will remain yourself whatsoever you do". she said "So, what should I do to develop myself?" I asked "If you focus on what you do have, it increases. If you focus on what you don't have, you will have even less. If you focus on your capabilities, they grow, if you focus on your health, it improves." she said. "what can I do to focus on good things?" "We each live in our own universe, a universe of our making. It is designed to support our beliefs and our focus. Our thoughts are our focus, so observe your thoughts, focus on your blessings, and trust. This is how you become a participant." she said. "But in this way how can I overcome my past mistakes" "Everything happens for the best. Whatever happens in your life is all planned by God and it happens for your good. It is during your bad times that you learn to live your life. Bad times give you strength, courage and makes you more mature in life." After a small pause she again started. "Practice seeing all life around you as an aspect of yourself. In this way you shatter the illusion of separation. Your mind does not know the difference between a powerfully imagined reality and a physical happening reality. Why? Because there is no difference. You only have a problem, if you believe you have a problem." she said. "what should I do to modify my life?" I asked. "Do not get caught up in modifying your life, allow life to change YOU. Modification is a superficial exterior veneer, change is an inner shift in consciousness. Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year. No man has learned anything rightly, until he knows that every day is Doomsday." she said. "From now what should I do in my life to be a successful?" I asked "It means Ashish, you want success right now." She said and laughed. It's not that much easy task, you'll have to follow some principles. some more things you'll have to develop in yourself, Like C's:- "The 3 C's of life are Courage, Capacity and Commitment. It takes Courage and a commitment to make many of life's decisions, and capacity to follow them through. The 3 C's of a successful relationship are Caring, Consideration and Communication. Communication opens the door between us, consideration allows us to pass through it and our ability to care for each other unites us." "Believe in yourself; that's the only strength you have when you are alone. Do what you can, when you can, the best you can." Live these principles and you will be practicing reality. Practice reality until you overcome the illusion. It is only an illusion that you are not free, now!

She stopped after this and said that these are only few principles which I gave you. There are some more principles remaining, which you'll get after some years practically, You'll have to recognize those principles.

"But I want to know more about you and when will you meet me again". I asked.

"I'll meet you, when ever you need me". she said and disappeared.

Suddenly I woke up and thought about the dream, what was that! At first I thought that this all is rubbish but then felt that I should tell this thing to the world. That's why I published this blog with the principles.
