A newly married young royal couple was
traveling in the boat to cross the river Ganges. Suddenly storm like
conditions surfaced, wind started blowing and the boat started
shaking. The Queen moved closer to the King who had no trace of
worries of his face. She whispered in King's ear, “My dear, aren't
you scared?”
The King was fortunate to have the
blessings and company of the Saints from an early age. He took his
sword out of its case and put it on the Queen's neck. The Queen was
startled for a moment and then started laughing. The King asked,
“Aren't you scared?”
“The sword is in the hands of my
master, not my enemy. Why would I be scared?”
“My dear, our life and this boat are
also in the hands of our master – our God, who is our Supreme well
wisher. Then, why would I be scared,” answered the King in the same tone.
