Afraid Of Each Other : Mulla Story....
# # #
Mulla Nasruddin was passing through a road. This was a dark night. Suddenly he realized, the road was quite lonely. No body could be seen there. Mulla started trembling with fear. He saw a crowd of about 40 people coming towards him. Mulla used to read the crime stories. He thought they were dacoits on some robbery mission. This thought added insult to the injury. Mulla started reciting the name of Allah and his rasool. He thought, these people would kill him. He started working out some strategy for his rescue, but he could not formulate one. He saw in all the directions. He noticed one graveyard, and jumped over a wall of the graveyard. That crowd was a actually a marriage party ( Indian marriage party 'Baarat' has resemblance to a gang of decoits. You would see people in turban, dressed up in a typical fancy dress competition manner, and many of them carries guns too). The members of 'baarat' saw mulla trembling and jumping into graveyard. They decided to know, who the fellow was and why he entered the graveyard through the wall. One after one almost all the members was in the graveyard, They also jumped into the place,the same way. Mulla who was hiding behind a tree became more afraid. The zeal and noise of the marriage party members confirmed his assumption that he was in the clutches of the robbers. He thought, "Now there was the end of my life."
He shouted, "Allah ho Akabar.! " "jai Shri Ram !" "Sar Siri Akaal."etc. Baratis could make out he was mulla.
"What are you doing here, Mulla." asked the baratis.
"What are you doing here ?" counter-questioned Mulla.
And as usual mulla concluded, " You are here because of me and I am here because of you."
In this world one is afraid of another, and each one is formulating strategies to combat the fear of the other. A great philosophical thought revealed by our Great Mulla.
