Transcripts
foreign
time in a village called mahabaleshwar
there lived a rich man by name balvinder
Singh he had the only son by name
yashwant who was inactive and
non-focused towards life he had no
interest in anything so much that he did
not even focus on his studies all he
would do is roam with his friends all
the day then one day sun yashwant
concentrate on your studies now
you are growing don't roam around with
your friends all time you need to study
now Papa why do I need to study at all
as we are rich and should I do a
clinical job by studying now why are you
insisting me to study sanyasvant
knowledge is divine one should study to
become wise but not to do a clerical job
one should know Wise ways to live and
one can get it only through gurus there
is a lot to learn in this world my boy
and you should start paying attention
all right
Papa I'm not interested in studying and
please do not force me to study please
leave me alone
balvinder Ponders upon how to change his
son as yashwant is arrogant and not
ready to study meanwhile his wife Amar
bir comes there she sees him worried and
tries to convince him
please do not bother yourself he's our
only son and we have pampered him a lot
he's still too young it will all be good
with the passing time that's true
pampered him as he was a small boy but
now he is not if he continues to be a
lazy bone I am afraid of his future and
he does not understand my intentions I
am clueless about his future
there is only one way out to get rid of
this problem he must be away from us and
his friends that is the only solution I
see for now for him to realize the
importance of life oh God to send away
our only child
can you stay without him
we should take this tough decision for
his good future
till now we were pampering him but now
when we asked him to change he sees us
as his enemies so sending him away is
the only solution our love should help
him to grow and that happens only when
he studies well and away from us this is
what I think do you agree with this I
like the idea but where can we get a
teacher who can be patient with him to
teach him properly of course we have
acharya Vishnu Sharma the most efficient
teacher in a nearby Village even my
brother's son satbir was mischievous
like our son but now he has changed a
lot in his behavior and attitude hence
we will send our son also in his ashram
fine
you talk to your son and crack the deal
I will talk to Vishnu sharmaji and take
yashwans to ashram tomorrow itself
sure I will talk to my brother and find
out details you start the preparations
okay I will after having a word with a
husband about the admission and travel
amarbir thinks of way to mend her son
for the journey meanwhile yashwant
reaches home seeing her mother in a
state of deep thought he asks her ma did
you have your lunch or are you waiting
for me to turn up how could I have my
meal without you my dear son we both
will have it together I overheard you
and your father talking about something
this morning what was that about

something productive in life what should
I do Ma nothing much son we have one of
the best scholars in the world in our
nearby Village by named acharya Vishnu
Sharma your father wants you to go there
to pursue your education and I told him
that you would never deny my desire
because I am sure you are ready to go am
I right
you know I'm not interested in studies
at all don't worry my son you need not
have to study there but just go with
your father and observe the environment
and you come back if you don't like it
sure Ma I will go because it is your
desire and to stay away from father he's
cold me and pestered me to study all the
time
I am going only because you are saying
and if I don't like it I will come back
very soon yashwant decides to go to
Vishnu sharma's ashram only to escape
from his father accordingly balvinder
sends a message to guruji Vishnu Sharma
about their arrival acharya used to live
there with a small family a wife named
Lakshmi and a small son named Aditya
Lakshmi all zamindar Mr balvinder is
bringing his son Master yashwanth tuar

him a competent person all glory to God
all your disciples have achieved big in
life they have earned a good name for
themselves in society all because of
your education and now I suggest that
you please start with the same process
with our son Aditya too I think it's the
right age oh sure why not I would love
to have my son as my disciple I will
start the training from tomorrow
next day
arrives at Vishnu sharma's ashram with
he met acharya and told him
namaskar guruji here is my son yashwant
and I am leaving him with you in your
ashram now it is your responsibility to
shape him into a wise and competent
person
in no time your son will excel in all
the areas of Competency yashwant you
should concentrate on your studies if
you do what I tell you to do you will
become wise and soon you will return
home as a wise boy
[Music]
he is younger to you in age but I am
starting the training along with you so
you both should enjoy learning now go
inside the ashram after yashwant goes
inside the ashram balvinda starts
talking to acharya Vishnu Sharma and
requested
my son is your responsibility from today
I request you to teach some common sense
and culture to him good God why do you
say that balvindarji your son seems
well-mannered he is not the person as he
seems he's lazy stubborn and does not
pay attention to what I say and he
thinks me as his biggest enemy
hence we thought of joining our sun in
your ashram and training I am worried
about his future I'm clueless how will
you change and deal with him I hope he
behaves himself with you here
don't you worry yashwant is immature he
will gradually learn everything and I am
confident he will be responsible and
competent in no time he'll be wiser when
you see him next I have full faith in
you guruji I will see you soon balwinder
takes leave from acharya and starts
proceeding towards home
and from the very next day morning
training started for yashwant
so
one
I am starting your training from today
and you will have to be prompt in your
approach and should do everything by
yourself that is the way of my ashram
you will have to abide by rules
understand
bursts in Anger after listening to
guruji's words in a deeply saddened tone
he told guruji
you are also like father always
dictating me what to do and when to do I
came here to stay away from such
instructions I don't want to do anything
is that so but you cannot shout at me
like this way this is not your house and
you will have to face the music if you
do not follow my instructions understand
boy
acharya said in a Stern voice yashwan
follows half-heartedly whatever the guru
instructs as he does not want to go back
to his father that's why there was no
other way out then one fine day yashwant
I asked you to buy her a sloke yesterday
and reproduce the same today did you do
that guruji I have not learned it yet
okay
don't you understand what I say I
reiterated that you would have to face a
punishment if you do not follow what I
say and read aloud the shlok for a
hundred times today and that is your
punishment
and this became an everyday routine
however yashwan started to follow
whatever acharya said over the period he
developed hatred towards this Guru
thinking that his Guru is consciously
forcing him to do all nonsense and his
Guru does not love him at all this
routine follows for a couple of more
days than one fine day
yashwant we are going for a marriage to
a nearby Village take care of yourself
and Aditya ask him to buy heart all the
shloks if you do not remind him about
the slokes he will play all throughout
the day play outside and waste his time
I don't want that happening all right
will you do that I will take care guruji
giving aditya's responsibility to
yashwant Vishnu Sharma leaves along with
his wife to nearby Village for a
marriage and yashwant deems it as a
respect to take up the responsibility of
his guru's son he said
guruji has assigned me your
responsibility so you should obey
whatever I say until he comes back do
you understand that tell me yes my dear
brother but I want to play now so please
leave me and let me play a little no my
dear little brother I cannot allow you
to play Until You by heart all the slogs
for the day yeshwan tries his level best
to mend Aditya and let him learn the
sloka by showing his authority but even
after four days Aditya could not get the
shloka by heart as his entire
concentration was on playing evidently
yashwanto is very upset about this what
is this Aditya how come you are unable
to learn a small shlok despite being the
son to a scholar if you do not read the
shlok now then I will have to punish you
so please read it Aditya brother nothing
is going into my head please leave me
let me play
this way Aditya does not pay attention
to yashwan's words and does not
concentrate on his studies and plays all
the time however yashwant wants to try
his luck for one final time so he calls
up Aditya and tells him
if you do not recite this shlok today I
will punish you understand
you do whatever you want I cannot study
and I will not recite the shlok
loses his Temple and slaps Aditya the
slab was so hard that his cheek turned
red
little Aditya went inside grind and
started learning shloka oh God I slapped
my guru's son out of anger now what will
happen what will happen now yashwant was
terrified and lost in his thoughts but
he observed that Aditya started reading
with utmost concentration very next day
acharya Vishnu Sharma returned home
along with his wife subsequently Aditya
complained about yashwan slapping him on
the face Mama see how brother slapped on
my face it swelled too and it hurts a
lot
oh my God yeshwant why did you slap this
hurt it's hurt him so bad his cheeks are
red like apple Ma I warned him many a
times to recite the slokes but he did
not pay any ear to what I said and
played all the time so to bring him back
on track I had to slap him
so what will you slap someone so hard if
he does not buy her the shloka and you
why don't you utter a single word what
do you expect me to say I entrusted
aditya's responsibility to yashwant and
he did his duty
he asked our son to recite the shlok to
which he denied so there is no other way
for a guru rather than to punish the
student
one can pamper the kid in all other
aspects but not in studies one is not a
teacher if they do not discipline the
student as a teacher one wants all the
disciples to progress and Achieve
Greater Heights in life yashwant also
did the same you go inside I will talk
to yashwant while listening to their
conversation yashwant understood his
guru's intentions and remembered his
father who tried to sort the issue with
love his father wanted to see him grow
and reach Heights but he never paid
attention now he realized his mistake
you should forgive my ignorance and
never understood your good intentions I
developed hatred upon you and always
thought you were persisting me to study
but never realized it is for my bright
future now I will study hard guruji
yashwant you should apologize to your
parents not to me remember parents are
our first teachers they always wish
Styles good and bright future if you
become wise and cultured you would be
the one to be benefited without
realizing this you hated your parents
the one who wants you to achieve Greater
Heights will fight for your good and
wants to choose good and wise path
remember so as you reap
concentrate on your studies and do well
in life
I am indebted to you thank you for your
lessons
from that day onwards he followed the
footsteps of his Guru and completed his
education within no time and returned to
his village upon his return He took all
the responsibilities from his parents
and looked after them happily forever
