There are some incidents which you never forget. Those might be good, those might be bad. But one thing I can say pretty surely is that the best feeling that a person can get is by making their parents feel happy. This is true universally. When they feel that they are proud to be our parents then only we can say that ‘we are proud of ourselves’.
There are very less people in the world who get
this good fortune to make their parents feel proud due to them. I don’t know
many of them. But 10th Sikh guru was able to get that feeling. There is a long story behind this.
This was time when Auragzeb, the last prominent
Mughal ruler ruled India. He was very strict to the non-Muslim communities. He
had asked all the Hindu priests to change their religion. Every Hindu was in fear
at that time. Some of the priests decided to visit 9th Sikh guru to
solve their problem. Next day they all visited him and tell him their problem.
9th guru, Guru Teg bahadur ji, thought
for some time and then answered that they need a leader who can even give their
life for your protection. He should be strong as he is going to face lot of
problems while doing this. 10th Guru(Guru gobind singh ji were not
declared Guru at that time), who was 9th guru’s son was listening
everything from the other room. He came to the room where the meeting was
taking place.
“Who can do it without you?” This childish voice
came from 10th guru and he was not more than 13 years at that time.
No one can say these words to his father. He had that courage to speak these
words although he knew that this can lead to his father’s death. His father
felt proud on his son’s courage and decided to support the Hindus.
“Go on tell him if you turn Teg Bahadur to a Muslim
then we all will change our religion too.” 9th guru speaks loudly and
stood up from his place. His face glowed; his muscles swell in proud, proud
toward his son. He had kept his chest up in a group of people.
This story is not related to religion. It doesn’t
tell that one religion is above from other. It tells humanity is the best
religion. You may follow any religion or you may not. But if you feel pain for
other human then you are a follower of humanity. This is above any religion you
follow.
Many of the people may relate this story with the
religion. They may feel that their religious sentiments are hurt by this
article then let me tell you go on find a doctor for yourself. Guru Teg Bahadur
and his son’s is not a proof of richness of their religion But they showed us
how to think like a human and not discriminate between any religions.
After reading this story the following story is to
be felt like waste of time but I have to tell this story. I too made my parents
proud by doing a work of humanity. For me it was nothing but for my parents,
this was the best day. They got the feeling that all those years which they have
not done anything of their choice to grant me the right values are not wasted.
This is the story when I was very young. I used to
live with my parents in a busy city. Everyone had a shortage of time. Our city
was in the heart of the state. This city has the largest number of hospitals
and hotels in the whole Asia. The city had a large sports market at one edge of
it. Our quality products were sent to the international event.
My father had arrived here from the other state to
this state in the search of job. He was able to get rather very good job in the
state’s police department. This was the time when he was new to the city and he
knew very less people in town.
We shifted to a new location and obviously my
school was changed too. I was in a new school. That was my first day at the
school. My school was very reputed school of the state. Its building was huge,
beautiful and green. It was no less than a four floor five star hotel. Some
construction work was going on at one side of the school.
It had been a while since I was coming to the
school and I started liking it. I made a lot of new friends. We shared our
lunch at the lunch time. It made me remember of those old days. Those days were
the greatest no stress, only fun. But nothing lasts forever.
One day in the afternoon at the time of recess I
was walking in the ground. I saw something like a packet in the thick layer of
flowers grown at lower boundary of the school. I moved toward it and saw that
it was a bundle which was wrapped on a rectangular shape. It feels like it was
something important inside it.
I opened it and was shocked to see money inside
it. The amount of money was very large as I was not able to hold the money with
my single hand and all the notes were of thousand rupees. I thought for no time
and followed my way to the supervisor’s office.
Supervisor sir was doing an important work at that
time but he allowed me to get inside of his office. I show him the money and he
was shocked to see this much of money. He kept the money in the locker and
admired me for doing the right thing and promised to find the owner of this.
After some days when I was studying in the English
class a student came to the teacher and told him that supervisor had called me
to his office. Every student’s eyes turned toward me. They were watching me go
as I had done a crime and he had called me to punish for it.
I too was scared as supervisor of our school was
considered as the most dreadful teacher of all. I reached his office and asked
him to come in. He smiled and asked me to sit on the chair beside him. Then he
introduced me to a poor looking man. This man worked as a gardener in our
school. He was the owner of the money.
He told me that he had saved the money for her
daughter’s marriage which is next month. And the money was lost maybe when I
was planting some flowers. He thanked me for this and said, “If you had not
returned the money, my daughter marriage would never have been happened.”
In the evening I told my parents that my teacher
had called them to come to the school. They had only one question in their mind
that was why. I told them that I don’t know. They got that I had done something
wrong that is why they are calling both of them.
Next day at the school I went with my parents. In
the morning assembly the school’s principle called me by name and tells
everyone my story. Everyone clapped for me and I saw my parents smiling at the
end of the stage. My principle called my parents on to the stage and congratulated
them for teaching me the right values.
They could hear the large crowd of students who
was clapping at their son’s achievement. They were looking like the proud
parents. This was my story what about you have you ever made your parents proud
do share it with the comments. Every story has its own value don’t feel like my
story is silly give it a try. This is big story store……
Thank You
