And like a miracle, the divine gates were after all thrown open for him. Overjoyed he rushed and ran inside half conscious and half naked. The sceneries and the sights within the boundaries of the divine gate were totally new for him. He came to another gate within, which was open but the sentinels standing there did not allow him to go in. On the contrary they tied him. Before they jail him, he requested them that he may be allowed to see the private secretary of God, The Almighty once. But he was not allowed to do so and was produced before the magistrate, the supreme justice of the court of the divine. The sentinels thought that the Magistrate will sentence him to an eternal punishment for his illegal entry and trespass with an ulterior motive in the kingdom of God.

"Your Lord ! It only means that I am having the difficult task of moving the so called Great People where every body fails and dares----“ 'Oh ! Is it so? What is the purpose of your coming over here?” Finding the Magistrate interested in his reply, he thought that now it will be easy for him to play upon him his usual tricks of hypnotizing and mesmerizing through wit and humor and showing his 'Secret Mysteries'. He got ready, he stood erect, he brought his unscrupulous though unassuming smile on his face, he replied"Your lord ! my purpose is a unique one. It is aimed at--- The conscious judge uninfluenced by his tricks interrupted and asked, "I once again warn you don't go on elaborating things in description. Be brief and tell me in short---
"I apologise Sir, for my mistake. My purpose in coming here is to see God, the Supreme power face to face
