It was just few days ago, I met him! Before that I was unaware of such strange being who would dare to ask me to be his Servant. A servant who will obey all his commands & do as he says! Weird it was to encounter such being! But let me tell you first how did I encountered (met) him, and what the bargain was all about!
Like all the other days, It was around midnight when I left my home and went for a walk to ponder upon the creation of universe, the designs and patterns which functions so beautifully perfect, and the arrangements of nature with varieties of colors, tastes, spices, and calmness!
That’s when I encountered him, sitting alone in the park lost in thoughts & weeping, I never saw him before in the park, and that triggered my concern & curiosity to know who he was and what was he seeking & weeping for! Like always, As I love to interact with people it was a new opportunity for me to learn about this strange being and maybe I could find some insights from his life. I tried initiating a conversation and this is how it went:
Me: Hii! Are you okay?
Him: ………
Me: Actually I live around, and never saw you before! And seeing your condition, would you like to have some food or water?
Him: ….. No… (Sobbing)
Me: Are you okay?....
Him: ……
Me: Fine, I just thought to ask you if you are new and are clueless about the whereabouts…
Him: No… I am unable to find him...
Me: Him? You lost someone… your son?
Him: No… I am finding someone who can help me to find him…
Me: Oh! Maybe I can… Can you tell something about him… So I can get some idea about whom you are searching & weeping for?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A grave mistake I committed, I still regret asking him that question. I wish this incident would have never happened. And things could go normal like before! But it was too late, and that’s when the conversation unfolded…
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Him: Please don’t feel pity for me, I am not what you are thinking… I am not a beggar, thief, wayfarer, or mentally disturbed person. But a man of wealth, fame, popularity & control. But I will be forever grateful if you can help me to find him…
Me: (Thinking) Weird… I never heard about him, or read about him! Strange Man…
Me: Fine, go ahead… I would like to know more…
Him: So listen carefully, as I mentioned about my wealth & power. Let me first tell you more about myself… and what I am willing to do for him & have control of…
Willing to provide him with excellent health, shelter, safety, security…
Double and triple the rewards of things, if he obeys what I say…
Make him rich for generations & provide all that he need to live…
Extend his age & help him to tackle death…
Guide & Mentor him...

Forgive him for whatever crime he does, I will be his protector!
Make him an influential personality, and the whole world will obey him…
Give him whatever on earth he needs, whenever he needs!
Help him with his affairs, and make him well-known in his peers & family…
Cure his diseases & make him supper energetic & healthy…
BUT…
Me: {Is he out of his mind (Feeling scared)…} But…
Him: But he needs to obey whatever I tell him to do! Every single thing I command him to do, he must obey it without any single question! Just do as I say! I need a servant… Who can be forever mine!
Me: Excuse me?? What?? You…. Servant… What are you even talking about? Have you lost your senses… You mean to say, you want to buy a person’s soul, freewill & choice of life and become your servant forever??.... Ahaaa
Him: Yes! I am finding him from many years. I found few of them… But they betrayed me… So I got rid of them… And I need someone loyal now!
Me: Loyal? With the bargain of all the things you are providing?
Him: YES! Every single thing I mentioned…
Me: Everything?
Him: Yes! Will you be my Servant?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sometimes in life, when you are blinded by all the superficial things of world you tend to accept such offers! And I stayed silent in deep thinking about his offers, and the luxurious behind it! Should I give it a thought? But… That was the moment…
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All I remember is running away from that person in fear with great concern and pondering upon the gifts which I have when no one have control over me, specially a man whom I have no clue about. The tasks he will make me do & the way he will choose: Good or Evil. Because if you sign up for the offer, you have already lost your life!
I still recall that memory, and wonder sometimes… How about having a master who loves you unconditionally 70x more than one’s own mother, blesses you with all the goods & riches, guides you at every point of time, aid you when you require help, keep your body functioning (which we absolutely do not run ourselves), reward you with every good & positive things, answer uncountable questions confidently with gentleness, promise you protection 24*7, always be with you providing you with privacy & accessibility to make your own choices, provide you knowledge, wisdom & secrets time to time to attain highest level of success, and eagerly wait to meet you and shower his infinite love!
And if all he asks is: To do good & believe in him without doubt! Because he won't command anything expect good!
Will you believe in him? Abdul…
Yes, I will!
It is definitely better to believe in the master who care & love, than to believe in that strange being whom I met the other day unknown & scary!
Whom will you choose? Do let me know in the comment section below.
