Bhavana...a girl whom i knew less when she was my student...at Indian Institute of Ayurveda in Bangalore...during my brief stay in the institution. If not anything i happened to meet one of the very promising batches with lovely kids...the final BAMS students...2009 passouts. They not only showed respect towards me...they also poured enormous love and affection. This girl belonged to that batch. I couldnt even know the names of all the students properly...before i left the college due to un avoidable circumstances. But i carried some sweet memories given by these kids...as i got everywhere i went.
Bhavana was known roughly to me as a calm and composed girl. Later i met her once when i returned to the college for some official matters to be settled. Later after a few months she happened to help me in a medical camp conducted by my current clinic...where i knew her more and from near as she was with me for the whole day. It was then i came to know that she is a talented girl with high potentials and daring dreams to achieve. She became almost a family member to me and one of the dearest daughters.
It happened once that she sent me a message..." If you were to give a name to me what would you call me?"...I analysing her qualities said....I would have called you Sowmya...which suits you much. She liked that so much that she reciprocated a msg...in her own words on 23rd april 2009 at 18:44 pm ..."From today onwards you call me sowmya sir pl..." I too was happy....unknowingly she had given me a previlage of naming a girl child. Another daughter in my life....God honours us in many ways and blesses us with lovely people...if we deserve.
Her activities and behaviour, the way she thinks and expresses, the likes and wishes she has... all indicate that there is a cute little child alive in her even at this age...and thats why she is so lovable. I pray that she keeps alive the child in her...because we dont find such people often who are very real by heart....this is one quality i learnt from her. She is somethin special and unique... i still think there is an unknown ocean to be explored about her and no one can do that...!
Everytime i speak to her...she has something to tell which is so touching to the heart that i start feelin....why i cant be like her? In one way she is a little teacher and philosopher to me. She is a wonderful child.
Griha pravesham at Mysore.... One of the happiest moments of her life...House warming on 8th of novomber 2009...at Vijaynagar area...Mysore. She wanted me to be a part of her happiness when they entered their new home...when she invited me...and how could i have missed out? I knew what it meant for her. I left to Mysore on saturday evening...in train...along with her juniors and my students...from final prof...Usha, Chetna and Ajay...good kids as well. I had a nice company of theirs through out...until my return. We reached Mysore at 9:30 pm and the Bhavana...dressed like a princess had come in car to recieve us. We went home...freshened up...had dinner.....and then went for a long walk....in a cool pleasant climate. We got plenty of time with each other. We came back and had a nice sleep...got up in the morning and witnessed a traditional house warming...amidst poojas and homa. Light showers blessed the occassion. Met her parents, brothers...wonderful people. Met some of her relatives and friends too. She used to come every now and then...sit with me and speak her heart out...showed how much she cared for me...and that she was happy with my presence. I too was happy by seeing her happy...and being a part of her happiness.
I had a delicious lunch and left Mysore bidding her bye....and reached Bangalore and home at 9pm. Again i had carried beautiful memories...this time from Mysore. May the new home bring new things into her life and make her happier...for ever and..............for ever...........
