Driving through the Rain

Sunday 30th June, we started at 6.00 A.M by car to visit Mylavaram Venkateswara Temple. Mylavaram is somewhere around 80 km one way from my village Vanukuru.  The weather is wet. It was drizzling througout the day.  Driving through the rain is one of the most beauful expereiences that delights our mood. 

It was  semidark when I left my village.  I was driving slowly without hurry. After all it was Sunday and we were going to Temple. I had a throat problem. At Benz  circle I stopped the car and Laxmi bought some strepcils. We started again. The roads were wet and the vehicles were absolutely few. I drove relaxedly.  After we crossed the Ibrahimpatnam the roads were partially submerged with water in some places. I cut through the stagnant rain water. 

At 8.30 we reached the temple.  There were only three devotees. We rounded the temple peacefully. We had whole hearted Darshan. We spent good time with God in the temple.  I remembered Shandanasastry (the writer of Tulabharam Telugu drama) whose songs are familiar in Telugu cinema. I also remembered the Rameswarasastry ( father of Viswanatha Satyanarayana). Both are good devotees and true believers of God. Both breathed last in temples. philosophical and spiritual thoughts rocked me. They reminded me that life is transitory ( very temporary) 

Later we took photos in the temple complex and outside the temple. We resumed our backward journey at 9.30. ON the  way I saw pre-fabricated containers houses. I was in search of them. I believed it was God's miracle. I stopped the car met the man at the place. Took his number and took photos of the spacious container houses. 

When the car reached Vijayawada we had the last soujourn at Fortune Muralipark Hotel.  My favourite place was Durga vilas hotel. When I lived in the city we often ate there on Sundays. Again after so long I could eat there. It was really fortunate. 

Strikingly different thinker

On 25th June 2024 Mr. Ashik came to Vijayawada from Nellore to meet me. He undertook a journey of 300 kilometers to meet and interact. I do have guests at home frequently but coming from hundreds of kilometers is rare. Mr. Ashiq lives in Nellore. He contacted me for German language learning. After talking to me he decided to meet me. He sounded differently when he wanted to meet me. I understood that there is something rare in him. I gew curious to know about him.  I gave him my house address. 

He reached  Vijayawada on 25th June Tuesday and informed me the same from City bus complex. My house is 20 km. from bus complex.  I wanted to recieve him but he wanted to come on his own. I never thought that he could come with so fast. In thirty minutes he is at my village home.  we had great deal of discussion in the classroom about German language. 

                                           

I explained all the important topics of  German grammar and sentence construction in the study room. Then we shifted to dining room. we had breakfast together. During breakfast he told me that he went to Bhavnagar ,  Gujarat to study Engineering. He wanted to live in a different culture and understand life from a different perspective. He told me how he tried to learn Hindi. He told me so many interesting things about Vadodara and Gujarat. 

I dropped him by car at the bus complex despite his requests to drop him at a near by autostand. I have plently of time for guests.  Guests are always welcome. This picture is a valuable memory. 

Millions of people think that they are different but in reality only a few people are different.  These few people only think differently. They don't  act differently.  When it comes to actions they act like all others. Ashiq is one of the few young men who not only think differently but also acts differently.

భారతవర్ష గ్రంథ సత్కారం.

 అందుకే భారతవర్ష చివరి గ్రంథం  ఈ కుర్రవాడికి  ఇచ్చి సత్కరించాను.  

అమెరికాలో ఉండి వచ్చాడు. అమెరికా నుండి వచ్చాడు. ఒక్క నెలలో అమెరికావెళ్ళిపోతున్నాడు ఇంతలోనే స్పానిష్ నేర్చుకుంటున్నాడు. దానితోపాటుగా ఫ్రెంచ్ నేర్చుకుంటున్నాడు. అక్కడి తో ఆగక  గిటార్ నేర్చుకుంటున్నాడు. అదిచాలక  ఉయ్యురులో కుకింగ్ క్లాసులకి  వెళుతున్నాడు.   ఆ కుర్రావాడు ఎన్ని దేశాలు చూశాడో   మనలో చాలామంది అన్ని రాష్ట్రాలు కూడా చూసి ఉండము.  స్పానిష్ క్లాసైనా ఫ్రెంచ్ క్లాస్ అయినా నమస్కారం అని పలకరిస్తాడు. తెలుగు గురించి అద్భుతంగా మాట్లాడతాడు ఆరాధిస్తాడు. అందుకే భారతవర్ష చివరి గ్రంధం ఈ కుర్రవాడికి  ఇచ్చి సత్కరించాను.
