FOUND THE GOD IN ME
Rigid, stable, and dominating discourse is not likely to give the desired results at length, on the condition that the orator giving the discourse is not gifted enough to attract everybody by his or her magic words. People attending a discourse may not find it friendly. Some prefer to stay away from social gatherings, social meets, and social discourse.

Redric always prefers to attend a discourse which he believes one day will give the answers to his long-hidden questions. His torn-out jeans and the shirt were not enough to hide the robust body. Nobody even cares about his presence in Shinpi-taking road, as he was a common figure there.

Whenever there was a religious discourse or mass gathering people would see Redric sitting very silently near the main gate and listen carefully to the lectures. He never asks for alms nor begs for food. His quest for knowledge attracts him to the Shinpi-taking road every time he listens to the mic blowing.

Shinpi-taking road, a place in the Natsukashii Valley is named as such because of its mysterious and regular religious discourses. Several gifted and skilled monks share their mystic art showing the way of unveiling the latent powers to reach the energy to be one with the cosmic soul.

Cedric's regular visit to the place awakened some hidden emotions in him; his brain started responding to his needs.

“Now it’s time for you to repent your past lives, without which your evolution is incomplete”….Redric felt a voice from within. Though he couldn’t see anything, he could feel the voice of someone. Redric realized the presence of a higher form of energy near him and confirmed that he is not an ordinary man. He is induced with super intelligence with a superconscious soul which can enter into people’s bodies at his own will. An astral journey of the subtle body.

Redric didn’t know what will be the

result of this energy transfer. The breathing pattern rapidly kept on changing. He smelled a pungent aroma, though sweet, its appearance made him flow deeper into his consciousness.

The mid-portion between his brows where the soul lies, he learned when he was a child, started showing signs as if it will explode.

“You are not the ordinary boy now, concentrate all your faith in your third eye, the area between your brows.” In a flash, Redric pulled out the thumb ring from the left thumb, and with a tight and mighty grip pressed on the third eye.

His body, at present, was working as if he is a remote controlled-robot, controlled by the one on whose hand lies the clicker.

The extreme pressure made him quiver and the pain he experienced was a thousand times more than a mortal being can experience in his entire life. A bright fire glazed and it made his soul awake once again, not allowing him to surrender into the claws of death. His epidermal layer of skin started changing just as a snake changes its outer sheath.

He felt tough from beneath the core but the realization that he was just breathing in and not able to breathe out made him shudder. In the end, His breath stopped.

Though Redric was aware of high energy transfer in deep meditation this time he got trapped in his hypnotic commands. He was stuck in a dilemma as to is it was his mind which is speaking to him or it is somebody else. Redric got up from his meditation posture.

A little knowledge is dangerous but more than enough knowledge at times may be catastrophic. Redric an inborn philosopher had a question about the purpose of human life from the time he started learning religious books. In his quest for life and search for truth, he was too much attracted to Buddhism. But he never thought that his knowledge was like a double-edged sword as he never sought the refuge of a faultless Master. He detached himself from worldly attachments and finally targeted to reach the Shinpi-taking road of Natsukashii Valley, but he doesn’t know why.

Redric in his mind planned to visit the Natsukashii Valley and started his journey on the first night of the first lunar month. He did shave his head just like a monk and dressed in robes as well but his mind still needs more knowledge of monkhood. His holy grail was to reach the southernmost part of the globe. In his journey, he never estimated the time nor calculated it.

If somebody in search of the power governing the entire universe thinks he’ll return to his native place, he may get a bipolar response. He may end up his life in the search or he may find a higher purpose in life. As he neared

the destined place, Redric felt his victory over the extremely adverse climatic conditions on reaching the southernmost part of the globe.

He felt the life power in each of his footsteps and finally reached the Natsukashii Valley.

“ I yearned for a mysterious power, thought of returning with it and lead a life of fearlessness, dominating whoever comes in my way. But why? I don’t know, why I feel, I can’t return home. Is this what is Moksha, liberation from rebirth.

Redric discovered a second home in Natsukashii Valley and quenched his never-ending thirst for knowledge in religious discourses. For a decade of years, he found himself standing on the gates of the Natsukashii Valley. Whoever sees him comes forward to serve and feed him but nobody knows from where this mysterious stranger came to the religious valley of Natsukashii. But Cedric's well-maintained muscles and the halo surrounding his entire aura showed an ultimatum of evolution in the valley of Natsukashii.

Redric accepted that now he can’t return home as he felt, his search for a better life, an energetic life, blissful life is accomplished. Now, the people in the valley bow their heads whenever they see Redric and address him as Tenshi(angel). He never preached nor gave any advice to the natives of Natsukashii Valley. When asked how to seek God he just says, “ I never searched for God but in my search for the riddle of life, I found Him. If you ask me, did it benefitted me? I may have a bipolar response. I couldn’t return to my home, which I did expect but got the ultimatum of peace of mind here,discovered the God in me.
