A BLACK DAY IN MY GREAT GRANDFATHER'S LIFE!!!!

 

This is an incident which is taken from experience not a myth.

A long time back, my grandmother’s father went to bring a woman who used to deliver children as my grandmother’s mother was in labor pain. The time was around 12am. There was only 1km distance from my grandmother’s house to the midwife’s house. They have to cross a paddy field to reach her house. Grandmother’s father knows the way by heart and he used to go through these roads daily. But after he travelled some distance, he thought he was walking in the wrong direction and started to the walk in another way. There was a small temple near the midwife’s house. He entered the surrounding of the temple. On his hand there was an oil lamp. As he walked through the surrounding, he fell into a hole. For some time he walked around the hole and later with the help of a stick he climbed out of the hole.

In his mind he knew that he was going in the wrong direction. But he could not control his walking. Midwife’s house was at a short distance, but he hadn’t reaching the house. He was walking a long distance. It seemed like that he was in a kind of a spell.

The Meenachil River was flowing near the midwife’s house. My grandmother’s father reached the Meenachil River by crossing a small lake called the Pannagam Lake. He walked through the side of the Pannagam Lake and reached the river. The time was 5am in the morning.

When he reached the river, he felt that someone was saying to him to wash his face so that he could feel fresh. But something in his mind said that this was not right that he shouldn’t wash his face. At the same time, a man came by who lived near the river. He asked my grandmother’s father who he was and where was he going. My grandmother’s father told him his name and where was he going.

When he was replying, he felt like he was regaining his conscious. Suddenly he remembered everything and went back to the midwife’s house. He picked her up from her house and went back to their house.

My grandmother’s father was a man which power of mind. And he did not believe in ghosts, demons and all. He believed that got saved from the incident because he didn’t believe in all the concept of ghosts and all. And also he believed that his power of mind had saved him.
