Based on a true
incident occurred in New Delhi, India where an old lady was living with her son
and daughter in law in their home. Time passed and the lady grew older, needed
help from both performing routine work. But her son started thinking that his
mother will create trouble in future for both of them. So he started ignoring his
mother. The mother knew that her son is no longer taking care of her. So she
decided to visit the sacred place called “Dwarka”. From Dwarka, she bought
beautiful idol of lord Krishna. For the mother, that wasn’t just an idol, she
considered it to be her son. Because her own son has already ignored her. She
worshipped it, talked to it, smile with it and she went addicted for her “beloved
son” whom she called “Lalla”
Later the mother went
quite ill. She wasn’t even able to get off from the bed. It was Janmashtami
and in the morning she asked her son to clean up the idol of her son Lalla and make
him wear new clothes. Her son started the procedure to keep her mother’s heart
satisfied. But somehow the idol slipped from son’s hands and fell on the floor.
Mother shouted from her room, “What happened? I feel you have hurt my
son. What have you done? This is inauspicious.”
Son replies, “Mom. Nothing has happened. The idol is safe. It hasn’t
got any scratch too.”
Mother,” How can you say that nothing has happened to my Lalla. He has
fallen down. Call the doctor now. Ask him to come here and treat in front of
me.”
Son,” How is this possible. I cannot do it.”
The mother was
strict and was shouting him to call a doctor. It made the crowd gathered near
the home. One elder man came to her son and said, “Look son. The old ones are like
children and we have to fulfill their wishes. You go to doctor, give him
advanced fees and bring him here. For the sake of your mother, think about it.
Son went to doctor but doctor denied to come with him. Son gave him double
charge and finally made doctor agreed to come at his place. Doctor also took
his medical bag with him. When he reached home, he saw the idol of lord
Krishna.
Doctor said, “He’s all right. Nothing is happened.”
Mother replied,” Have you properly checked him? By seeing only, how
can you be so sure he is all right? It means you have treated all your patients
without checking them.”
Doctor exclaimed to the son, “What is she speaking? Let me go. I am
wasting my time.”
Mother,” No. You cannot go from here until you properly check my son.
He has fallen on floors. He must have got injuries. Where is your stethoscope? Check him and go wherever
you want.”
Son added,” Doctor, for the sake of my mother, please do what she is
saying.”
Then doctor took
his stethoscope and checked the idol. He put it near the heart of an idol and
got terrified what he listened.
He listened the
heart beats. The doctor scared and immediately took his stethoscope. He was
sweating in full swing Air conditioned room. When people asked him what was
happened. He replied,” I have got the “Gyaan”
today. I served 65 years of my life serving people. Now I have realized the
true “Gyaan”. Mother I will go to
Dwarka, serve your son for the rest of my life and leave my “praan” there.”
