Bridge Too Far

 

The Lord surveyed the Raama Setu and said: " Hanuman,

how diligently and strenuously you and your vaanara

sena had built this bridge several centuries back. It

is remarkable that it has withstood the ravages of the

climatic and geographical changes over centuries. It

is indeed an amazing feat especially considering the

fact that a bridge at Hyderabad built by Gammon using

latest technology collapsed the other day even before

they could stick the posters on its pillars. "

 

Hanuman with all humility spoke: " Jai Sri Raam, it is

all because of your grace. We just scribbled your name

on the bricks and threw them in the sea and they held.

No steel from TISCO or cement from Ambuja or ACC was

ever used. But Lord, why rake up the old issue now. "

 

Raama spoke: " Well, Hanuman, some people down there

want to demolish the bridge and construct a canal. The

contract involves lot of money and lot of money will

be made. They will make money on demolition and make

more money on construction. "

 

Hanuman humbly bowed down and said: " Why not we go

down and present our case? "

 

Raama said: " Times have changed since we were down

there. They will ask us to submit age proof and we

don't have either a birth certificate or

school-leaving certificate. We traveled mainly on foot

and some times in bullock carts and so we don't have a

driving license either. As far as the address proof is

concerned the fact that I was born at Ayodhya is

itself under litigation for over half a century, If I

go in a traditional attire with bow and arrow, the

ordinary folks may recognize me but Arjun Singh may

take me to be some tribal and, at the most, offer a

seat at IIT under the reserved category for learning

how to construct a bridge. Also, a God cannot walk in

dressed in a three-piece suit and announce his

arrival. It would make even the devotees suspicious.

So it is dilemma so to say. "

 

" I can vouch for you by saying that I personally built

the bridge. " " My dear, Anjani putra, it will not work.

They will ask you to produce the Layout plan, The

Project details, Approved Plans, Municipal Building

Permit, Excavation Permit, the contractor who built it

including financial outlay and how the project cost

was met and the completion certificate. And who

inaugurated it? Nothing is accepted by these people

without documentary evidence in India. You may cough

but unless a doctor certifies it, you have no cough. A

pensioner may present himself personally but the

authorities do not take it as proof. He has to produce

a life-certificate to prove that he is alive. It is

that complicated. "

 

" Lord I can't understand these historians. Over the

years you have given darsan once every hundred years

to saints like Soordas, Tulsidas, Saint Tyaagaraaja,

Jayadeva, Bhadraachala Raamdas and even Sant Tukaaram

and still they disbelieve your existence and say

Raamaayana is a myth. The only option, I see, is to

re-enact Raamaayana on earth and set the government

records straight once for all. "

 

Lord smiled " It is not that easy today. Raavana is

apprehensive that he may look like a saint in front of

Karunaanidhi. I also spoke to his Maama (uncle)

Maareecha, who appeared as a golden deer to tempt Sita

when I was in the forest and he said that he won't

take a chance of stepping on earth as long as Salman

Khan is around. "
