Vardaan 1...The Ultimate Boon

Chapter 21: This Is My Friend (Part 1)

The night Satsang organized for Batuk went off very well. One by one everyone went back. Everyone got busy in their own life after going from Uttarasaadhaka Gurukul.

Jagdeesh felt that his income had been settled permanently, so he told the family members that he was mentally ready to make someone's daughter his wife. The family members had been waiting for his 'yes' for a long time, so they immediately arranged things for his marriage.

Even though Jagdeesh wanted very much, he could not call Batuk, because Jagdeesh was afraid that Batuk might not understand that his friend was making fun of his poverty. He told his feelings to Rasik and Dev through letters.

Rasik forbade Jagdeesh to do so, but Dev agreed with his thoughts.

When the three friends met on an auspicious occasion, everyone missed Batuk. Jagdeesh started sobbing.

"Will you keep thinking only about your own happiness or will you think of Batuk's mind as well? In poverty, he will attend your marriage, but all the time he will consider himself inferior. Gurus often say that there is no benefit to that auspicious work in which even a single person's conscience is distressed." Dev explained.

Jagdeesh understood so, and Rasik liked that too. Rasik was very proud of Dev. He understood that sometimes it is better not to include loved ones in his happiness.

Dev had thought that everything would be normal. But he was forgetting one important thing in the context of life. To understand and to be able to implement the understood thing in life, these two are different activities. Often humans fail to implement what they have understood into life.

The same happened with Dev's friends.

So Dev had to explain to both his friends again and again. Both of them felt better after each of his efforts. Two days before marriage, both became completely normal. Only then did Dev really start enjoying the marriage. Before that, Dev was just pretending to be blissful.

Rasik and Dev enjoyed the wedding a lot. After the farewell of the bride, both of them had a good thought that if they had enjoyed so much in Jagdeesh's marriage, then their marriage would be amazing. They also got brides.

While that good thought showed Dev his right destination, the family members of Rasik lost their sleep.

Dev knew what kind of girl he wanted. So he told his brother's wife his choice. His sister-in-law found a girl according to his choice and the marriage ceremony was completed very quickly.

At least Rasik thought that Dev's marriage happened quickly.

Rasik didn't even know what kind of girl he wanted. Sometimes he wanted a girl full of all qualities, and sometimes a thought came into his mind what is the fault of that good girl, to whom Mother Nature has not given innate qualities? If the commotion was limited to his thoughts, it would have been fine, but Rasik used to tell his every new idea to his whole family. Due to that, neither the family understood what exactly Rasik wanted, nor did Rasik's steady desire reach Mother Nature.

Being fed up, Rasik called Jagdeesh and Dev. Dev gave up for the first time in his life because, for the tenth time in three days, Rasik had changed his mind.

"Brother, listen to me carefully. Suppose you say that you want such a girl who may look good but cooks food deliciously, then Mother Nature will start arranging such a girl for you. After that, if you start Saying I don't mind if a girl doesn't know how to cook, but she should be looked very beautiful so that she doesn't feel inferior in walking with you. Then Mother Nature will leave your previous desire and start searching for a girl according to the new desire. In such a situation, if you make a third, fourth, and fifth wish then Mother Nature will never know what your exact wish is. What do you want exactly?" Jagdeesh calmly explained to Rasik.

Not only did Rasik understand his words, but he also understood that Jagdeesh had become more mature after marriage.

Jagdeesh was about to stop Rasik when Dev turned and saw Rasik. Jagdeesh guessed Rasik's future in a moment.

Dev very lovingly came and sat near Rasik.

"First of all, I have not found such a girl, after seeing whom I would say that is the one with whom I can see the sunset of the last evening of my life. A girl was found with the help of my sister-in-law but her love affair was going on. Somehow I got another girl, but she did not want to marry so far away. Totally went for the seventh time and found a girl, with whom the waves of my mind could connect properly. Then the elders of her house said that we have to match the horoscope first. Being a student of Uttarasaadhaka Gurukul, horoscope... my mind was in turmoil. I refused, and then the girl came to meet me. She said that she had accepted me as her husband. Now going with someone else will not be in line with dignity. Do whatever you want, but somehow convince my family members. After that I, Rasik you are listening to me, after that I begged a pundit, lied, and got that pundit to lie as well, and then somehow the marriage took place. I thought that now married life would be enjoyed. But no, my family members have to see all their Gods and Goddesses because just because of them I agreed to get married and I got married too..." Dev was speaking in anger and Rasik looked at Jagdeesh nervously.

Dev immediately forcibly turned Rasik's face towards himself.

"Don't look at Jagdeesh, listen to my story. For three months a staunch atheist like me visited different types of temples. I thought let's get away with it, now let's enjoy married life. But no, just as my family members could not tolerate my happiness, similarly my wife's family members were also unable to tolerate my happiness. A message has come from the in-laws to send the girl..." While Dev was speaking, Rasik looked at Jagdeesh in fear again.
