________________ Life Invaluable Or Ordinary? Nobody knows when death will embrace them and they will cease to exist. Parmatma says that when you do not have any surety of your own life, then is it right to trust the person on whom you rely for your life! There was a mental asylum in which many mentally imbalanced patients were kept and taken care of. Most of the time, they were locked in as it was dangerous to leave them free to roam around. The building had three floors, the first two floors had rooms for the patients and the terrace was on the third floor. One day, it so happened that the kitchen on the ground floor caught fire the workers quickly opened the doors and told all the patients to leave the place immediately as the building was engulfed in flames. The rooms were quickly unlocked to enable the patients to escape. Where would all these mentally challenged go? In which direction would they run to save their lives? Would they go up or down? The patients, instead of leaving the building climbed up to the third floor terrace and thinking that it was a holy fire, started dancing around it...and started celebrating their freedom - they were enjoying themselves, dancing merrily and jumping with joy. 34
