OFFERINGS

                Prince Goutom was brought up in immense luxury without any 
    knowledge of distress.  As a young chap at the age of sixteen for the first 
     time he was out of the palace. He realized the ruthless reality of life 
      associated with misery, poverty, ailments, senile decay ending in death. 
             He left the palace in search of peace and ultimate insight and 
       introspection to guide life. Through sufferings and devoted meditation,
       he was enlightened with ethereal rays of eternity.
                                                         
                               prince turned Lord Biddha
                                        reverential preacher
                                                    of divine wisdom.

      A florist was selling flowers on roadside. Among varieties of flowers, there 
     was only one abloom Lotus, rare in that season. So, he put a high price tag 
      for the Lotus. Everybody was eager to buy that unique flower                                    
      
                                      special lotus                                                                                                                                                                                              
                                      a rare bloom in the season
                                                 allured each buyer.
 
    The florist noticed crowd of populace walking on the road. Being inquisitive, 
     he came to know that Lord Buddha has come this place. Everybody is 
      rushing to visit Him with flower. Two kings from different states are also 
     passing. Both stopped and wished to buy the unique lotus. As one was 
     ready to buy the flower at high price, the other offered to pay more. 
      So, the price of flower was rising higher. The florist was puzzled and 
      refused to sell the flower. He decided to sell the flower directly to Lord 
      Buddha to get maximum price.
      
                                 florist was tempted 
                                        apprehending highest gain
                                                  to sell to great saint.
   
     Florist started to walk with the public to meet Lord Buddha. He reached to 
     see the pristine persona. He listened to his messages and was whelmed 
       and mesmerized as he looked at the tranquil face of the sage. Florist 
       approached and bowed to Lord Buddha and then offered the peerless 
       lotus. Lord Buddha said, ’Dear, how can I pay for this wonderful blossom?’
      Florist again bowed and told ‘I wish a wisp of dust from your feet as token 
     of your blessing.’ 
                                                           
                                    veneration to
                                         wise sacred sagacious 
                                                    sublime supreme soul.
                                                                  
                                                      
     08/29/20                                                     

   Note. To honor Lord Buddha, I can't use lower cases to write His name.
