[Guest guest]

There was a goldsmith in a certain village. He was sick and bedridden for a

long time. As such inspite of anxiety he was unaware about the

market-position of gold. Once the end was to grasp him. The learned

physician attended him as he had hyper-pyrexia ' i. e. high body

temperature. Gazing at the thermometer the doctor murmured temperature" is

105" [ i. e. the body temperature was 105° F]

The goldsmith who was thinking about market-price of gold per-tola heard

these words from the doctor 1. e. '• is ‘105’

Immediately the goldsmith who was on the verge of death, ordered his son

standing near by :

"Sell and dispose off all the gold now. We had purchased it at the rate of

eighty. Now it is 105."

And with these words, alas, the goldsmith crossed the ultimate end of life

and died.

It is a world-wide accepted fact that whatsover we have sought for during

the whole of our life, the same wish and desire strikes our mind at the hour

of death.

The next birth mainly depends upon this very desire. Let our mind therefore

be directed to the holy-lotus feet of god SRI SAI BABA. He will positively

relieve us from these sort of rebirths. Then we may be a part and participle

of His ever flourshing feet in next birth.
