Question: Apart from your own religion, what other religion do you like the most and why?
I just to share one experience with everyone..
Few years back, I had an opportunity to spend one day at New Delhi. I had 8 hours time for my flight to Chennai. Hence, I decided to spend that 8 hours in the streets of Dehli. I took metro and reached a place(I don't remember exact name). I dropped from the metro station and had a good lunch in the nearby hotel. There was one Sardar ji sitting opposite and having his lunch. He clearly knew that, I am an outsider. He said, he rides auto and can take me to the places which I want to visit. I asked him to take me to Parliament house, Rashtrapati Bhavan, India Gate and drop at metro station. We have fixed the charge as 150 rupees for all the 3 places.
First, he took me to India Gate. It was long distance from the origin to India Gate. It should be more than 5 KM. I went inside the India gate. Took few photographs and came outside. He was standing in the same place with a bright smile. He told me that, he has got some personal emergency and has to leave. I could understand his situation and gave him 150 rupees (thought it would be helpful for him). He smiled and returned back 100 rupees and said thank you.
I was shocked on his gesture. The distance he took me deserves 100 rupees. But he refused to take it. Per place 50 rupees and accepted 50 rupees only. I have never imagined that, he would behave in that way. I truly loved his, hardwork with faithfulness towards his job. I don't have his picture. But he would be similar to Singh in the below photo
Note: Above photo is not original. It is imaginary.
Sikhs are truly hard working people. Their love for their profession, culture and language is eternal. Nothing can match their helping tendency too. I always admire Sikh friends.
My religion is Hinduism. If there is another birth, I would like to be a Sikh.
Cheers!
