REBIRTH MUST BE EXISTING
23 yrs old Jimmy Watson visited me for consultation . Punctually at 4-30 PM he gets into my room . Seated after I gestured him he began .Polite simple well mannered and composed Jimmy betrays no emotions but simply says Doc I am in love with a Hindu girl, my parents want her to be baptized and she resolutely refuses anything like it .What should I do ?" "Is Baptism mandatory for love" ? I asked . "No" answers Jimmy "not for love but for marriage". " Our priest does not solemnize the wedding unless she believes in Jesus and gets baptized."I suggest you talk to her parents" I suggested. "No way" answered Jimmy. "Her parents are strict orthodox Hindus. They believe in rebirth , transmigration of souls , idolatry and the like" "So" I said , "your parents and her parents are in the way" "Yes" Jimmy said."Why not marry her first and convert her later?" I said. "Oh" exclaimed Jimmy "she want me at yoga classes and meditation lessons for six months before anything like marriage is contemplated" . I assured Jimmy that Yoga and meditation have nothing to do with Hinduism. Christians , and Jews also practise Yoga .Half convinced Jimmy took leave of me and disappeared for good . I pitied this jinxed lover. One year passed .I received a phone call from Jimmy for a consultation .I gave him a date and time ."Is my pet dog allowed" asked Jimmy. "Not generally , but I`ll make an exception in your case" I said. "My wife also wants to see you" said Jimmy. Surprised a bit I said "yes". 10 days later , the couple with their pet Snoopy arrived .I thought Jimmy married some other girl and settled well .I was more surprised when my clients visited me.Jimmy calls himself Gandharv .The Hindu lady is Priya the same girl who persuaded him into meditation and yoga.Gandharv ,formerly Jimmy said that during a trance of deep meditation he realised that he is meant to have Priya for seven lives.Both Priya and Gandharv are sure that their pet Snoopy will be their child or grandchild in future
