Ch. 4: The Birth - The Liberator has arrived
growing within her. She felt extraordinarily lucky, and was anxious for the day when she would present her little miracle to the world.
One night, while the whole town was quiet and asleep, when the twinkling little stars in the sky were smiling at her beautiful sleeping face, Maharani Trishala was having wonderful dreams. One by one, she saw fourteen marvelous dreams, and she woke up. I was sitting by the door to her bedroom and saw her sit up in the bed. She was very excited. I rushed inside. She grabbed my hands and said, "Sarika, just now I had the most amazing dreams. These dreams must have great significance. Maharaja must hear about them first. Come let me go to his chamber."
King Siddharth was woken up by the gentle sound of his queen's approaching footsteps. He was lying awake, thinking about the queen and the baby that would soon arrive. Surprised to see the queen at such wee hours of the morning, he asked, "What is the matter, my dear queen?" He noticed Trishla's face beaming with joy and excitement. "What happened?" He asked again.
The queen replied, "I have been thinking about our baby, but I don't know when I fell asleep. I had dreams, so vivid that I still wonder whether they were dreams or reality. One after the other, I had fourteen beautiful and auspicious dreams." The queen then narrated to the king each of her auspicious dreams in detail. I was her personal Dasi, and am a witness to that event." Ajja Sarika was now lost in that moment.
"How did Maharaja Siddharth react after listening to her dreams?" I wanted Ajja Sarika to continue the exciting story.
