Good Morning All! While conversing with one of my elite friends this morning, this topic was suddenly raised; Everything is Destined. I don’t know about others, but I strongly believe in the theory. We talked about the recent mishap in the ocean’s depth, Ocean Gate Submarine Tragedy. There is nothing to elaborate on this because everyone is familiar with the story, thanks to the Internet. So the topic was everything is destined. That reminded me of a mythological tale that my Dadiji used to tell us.

Once, a little bird was singing out merrily outside the palace. Suddenly she saw the Yamraj ( God of death ) smiling at her while entering the palace. Suspicious of any untoward incident, she wondered why he was smiling at me. Is he going to fetch my life? She got paled at the very thought of death n began searching for some escape from this place. She came across the Garuda & requested him to help her to escape from the place and as farthest as possible. Garuda happily agreed to help her & carried the little one to the most outlying mountains ⛰️. Now, the twist to the tale, as soon as the little bird landed on the mountain, a cat was there, and she attacked and killed the bird. Nothing can be done. When the Yamraj arrived to fetch her soul, she questioned his grinning. The Yamraj laughed loudly and said I thought Destiny would be proven wrong for the first time today. Your death was written on this mountain, and you were so far away from this place. You couldn’t reach here by yourself in such a short period.

This thought made me smile, and the rest is the story that every one of you knows who is reading my blog 😄. Well, it’s clear that they all were very influential people boarding the vessel, mighty in every aspect, but they hadn’t expected it to be. They were enthusiastic about their journey toward the Titanic, but as we know, Everything is Destined.

May their divine souls rest in peace 🪦.
