Nurturing the Sweetness of Knowledge (Long story in English)- English story reading:
Once upon a time, in a small town, there were two best friends named Shivam and Raju. They were about seven or eight years old and attended the same school together. Raju was known for his playful nature and his tendency to act on his whims. One day, while on their way to school, Raju asked his father for some money, expressing his desire to buy a mobile phone. However, Raju’s father, being cautious, hesitated to fulfill his request, as he believed Raju was too young for such a device. But Raju insisted, and after much persistence, his father reluctantly agreed to buy him the mobile. Excitedly, Raju rushed to school to share the news with his friend Shivam. However, Shivam, being more practical, tried to advise Raju against his impulsive decision. He explained that they were still too young to understand the value of such things and that buying a mobile phone was not the right choice.
But Raju had already made up his mind. When he returned home, he accompanied his father to the market and purchased a shiny new mobile phone. Overjoyed with his new possession, Raju spent hours playing games on his mobile, completely forgetting about everything else, including his studies. Days went by, and Raju became increasingly absorbed in his mobile phone, neglecting his schoolwork and losing interest in attending classes. His father began to regret buying the mobile, realizing that it had only brought trouble instead of joy. And so, Raju’s adventure with attraction began, teaching him valuable lessons about the consequences of impulsive decisions and the importance of balance in life. As Shivam and Raju’s father reached Shivam’s grandfather’s house, they were greeted warmly by the wise old man. Shivam explained Raju’s situation to his grandfather, expressing his concern for his friend’s future.
Listening attentively, the grandfather nodded thoughtfully. He understood the gravity of the situation and the challenges Raju faced in being constantly drawn to distractions like his mobile phone. With a gentle smile, the grandfather invited them to sit with him under the shade of a large tree in his garden. There, surrounded by the tranquility of nature, he began to share his wisdom. “Dear friends,” the grandfather began, “the attraction towards material things is natural, especially for young minds like Raju’s. However, it is important to guide this attraction towards productive and beneficial pursuits.” He explained that while technology like mobile phones could offer entertainment and convenience, excessive use could lead to distraction and detachment from the real world. He emphasized the importance of balance and moderation in everything.
“Raju needs guidance and support to channel his energy and curiosity in the right direction,” the grandfather continued. “As his father and friend, you must provide him with positive influences and engage him in activities that nurture his talents and interests.” Raju’s father and Shivam listened intently, absorbing the grandfather’s words of wisdom. They realized that they needed to take proactive steps to help Raju overcome his obsession with the mobile phone and rediscover the joy of learning and exploring the world around him. Feeling uplifted and enlightened by their conversation with the wise old man, Raju’s father and Shivam thanked him sincerely for his guidance. With renewed determination, they returned home, ready to support Raju in finding a healthier balance in his life.
And so, armed with the wisdom of the grandfather and the unwavering support of his loved ones, Raju’s journey towards self-discovery and growth began, guided by the gentle sweetness of attraction towards a brighter and more fulfilling future. Raju’s father listened attentively to Shivam’s grandfather’s wise words, feeling a sense of realization dawning upon him. He understood that he had inadvertently contributed to Raju’s attraction towards the mobile phone by imposing restrictions without providing proper guidance. With humility, Raju’s father acknowledged his mistake and accepted the responsibility to guide his son towards a healthier relationship with technology. He realized that it was not the mobile phone itself that was the problem, but rather his own lack of understanding and guidance. Determined to make amends, Raju’s father resolved to educate himself about the positive aspects of technology and how it could be used as a tool for learning and growth. He made a promise to himself to show Raju the real power of the mobile phone and to help him harness its potential for acquiring knowledge. Shivam’s grandfather smiled warmly, pleased to see Raju’s father’s newfound clarity and determination. He encouraged Raju’s father to lead by example and to instill in Raju a sense of curiosity, responsibility, and discernment in his use of technology.
Feeling inspired and empowered by the wisdom imparted by Shivam’s grandfather, Raju’s father returned home with a renewed sense of purpose. He was ready to embark on a journey of transformation, not just for Raju, but for himself as well. And so, armed with the understanding that true attraction lies in the pursuit of knowledge and the cultivation of wisdom, Raju’s father set out to guide his son towards a brighter and more balanced future, where the allure of the mobile phone would be tempered by a deeper appreciation for the richness of life’s experiences. With love, patience, and guidance, Raju’s father was determined to help his son navigate the complexities of the modern world and to discover the true sweetness of attraction towards knowledge, growth, and fulfillment. And thus, the story of Raju’s journey towards enlightenment and self-discovery came to a close, guided by the gentle wisdom of Shivam’s grandfather.
