King of simians has fixed the marriage of his daughter with the son of king of Jackals. But as some times happens, the prince saw his fiancé and did not liked her an inch, he ran away from his palace announcing he will not marry her. He will marry some one he likes, not some one his parents select and he does not likes.
He went to an distant corner of the country and fell in love with a girl there, that girl was a very ordinary girl but as hearts some times behave strangely, the prince of jackals fell in love with her deeply. That girl used to see him moving around but never gave him any attention, because she had her own priorities and principles.
The prince started to pine after her and in the pining fell sick, he fell very sick and the news went to his father, he came rushing to take his son home. He went back home with him after promising that he will bring the girl of his choice as daughter in law.
Once in his palace he informed the king of simians about his son’s sickly choice and requested him to handle the matter. The king promptly came to the rescue of his would be relative. He appointed an loyal army of his kingdom to harass the girl.
Those simians did their duty right, they harassed that girl to no end, wherever she went they were sure to follow her, spy on her and harass her, they bribed people near her to harass her and while the prince was recovering that girl was going through hell, slowly she lost her mental peace, happiness and her nature became very suspicious and bitter. Whenever she used to meet some one she used to think that he or she must be a spy of the simian kings.
The king of jackals invited the simian princess and the girl of his son’s choice to the palace together after his son recovered. The contrast was too big and the prince thought that he must have been delirious to reject the simian princess and chose this girl.
So the girl went back to her village and the simian princess and jackal prince married and lived happily ever after.

musings of budhdhu
Buddhu was sitting in front of Mother Bhagwati, and showing her a queue in a auto stand, a few women were standing in the long line, there were men also, one of the men in front of the women lighted a cigarette and started to blow out the smoke, the women were visibly disturbed but the man chose to ignore them and for the next thirty minute kept on smoking cigarette after cigarette.
Buddhu asked Mother that why did the women not protested when they were feeling so much bothered, after all government always says that cigarette smoking is harmful for health and it causes more harm to those who are nearby and inhaling that smoke.
Mother smiled ironically and showed him a scene, a woman was sitting beside window in a bus, there was a sign on the bus which said no smoking, a man was sitting right beside her, he did not asked for her permission and lighted a cigarette, the lady first fidgeted for a few minutes and then gently requested the guy to not to smoke because she does not likes the smoke.
The guy snubbed out the cigarette, turned at her and snapped that if she is so much choked by smoke she should go by taxis not bus. And for the remaining journey continuously grumbled and taunted the woman. The woman suffered the journey in blushed silence and got down at her stand. Not a single person supported her.
Then Mother Bhagwati told Budhdhu softly, I gave more intelligency to human beings to help each other, love each other but they used it to invent things which are slowly ruining them, and they have become so inconsiderate that they are ruining the entire earth with them.
Cigarette is too harmless in comparison, think, they invented religion, and now they are using it to kill each other, they invented dynamite and its current use is destruction. I think every thing they invent they use it for self destruction.
I have stopped looking at earth a long time ago, it is you who is forcing me to look at them again, but I wont get involved with them ever again, they are creating problems so they will solve it. All I will do is I will help you in your personal problems.

budhdhu
Buddhu was mother goddess Durga’s favourite fawn. One day while mother was busy in work he chewed up the most beautiful lotus of Mother Laxmi’s lotus plant. She got infuriated and cursed him to take birth as a human being.
Buddhu went to mother goddess weeping, mother goddess told him sadly, that she cant revoke the curse, but if Buddhu faces any problem he can come to her at the night after every one is asleep and she will show him the solution.
On Buddhu had to go as a human being, he took birth in an educated family, brought the kindness and virtues of heaven with him. He passed his first fifteen year in peace, but on his sixteenth birthday he went to Mother Goddess asking her answer for a question.
He went to mother goddess and sat down before her, she asked him what had happened and he showed her a scene, a young lady was working in an office with full dedication, but her bosses were regularly abusive to her, in the end she could not bear their regular insults and submitted her resignation, on the final day, when she was to be handed over her salary, they made her sign the salary slips and then bolted the door of the office, all the staffs were watching the drama without protesting, and then they gave her a huge list of works to do before getting her salary. The girl was dumbstruck. She knew that it was not possible for her to finish that mammoth work in six months, it only meant that they wont pay her salary, so she just cleared her duties and left the office in shattered state of mind.
Then budhdhu showed mother goddess the second scene, an year or so later a young lover died a tragic death, and the same organization, which has robbed that girl off her rightfully earned salary, treated her so inhumanly were out on the street to protest for the death of that young lover, keeping candles burning in front of his picture, braving storms and rain.
Then budhdhu asked mother goddess, that did they changed so much over the year or they don’t like live human beings but like people after they are dead?
Mother goddess sat silent for a few minutes, then placed her hand on Buddhu’s head and said, son, its business policy, it does not has any connection with conscience or love. Its just they want their names in newspaper so they have more business proposals in future.
