Chapter 113: The Past (Part II)

"This is not the case, Patel and I both have the gift of cultivators, and this talent is more important than everything in the world, wealth, status, and even marriage. You must know that once people are deeply rooted in religion, there is nothing more important than religious things, let alone becoming the central figures of religion. Patel and I were not married, no one blamed us, and even my parents were very relieved, and I still remember that dinner" Uncle Johnny really told the story of someone else's life at the moment, and he didn't tell the emotions that he had invested when he was a girl.

As mentioned before, although they are all talented, even Patel is superior, but the treatment they get is not the same after all, Sharma has become the most glorious son of the god, and will go to one of the most mysterious temples in India to practice, where he will get a great inheritance, while Patel is going to a secret religious school to practice, naturally that religious school is also top-notch, but compared to Sharma's inheritance is a few points inferior after all.

According to the arrangement of the road ahead, Sharma will eventually become the leader of the entire Hinduism, the number one person, he will be the mainstay of the Indian monk circle, and Patel's status will not be too bad, he will become Sharma's left shoulder and right arm, one person below ten thousand people

What a bright future it is, Sharma is happy for himself and for Patel, without any insincerity, and he thinks that it is a very remarkable thing that a Dalit can achieve today's success.

You can't ignore the long-standing habit of a people, that which is something that goes deep into the soul, and that, as ugly as it is, has taken root in the hearts of the people! This has nothing to do with character, it has nothing to do with the feelings between each other, the caste system has finally penetrated into Sharma's heart with the years, and he can't get rid of it.

It seems that everyone thinks the same way, and there is a different respect in the eyes of Patel, but it is more of a question that cannot be determined about his caste, why is there such good luck? There is no shortage of jealous people anywhere in the world.

But what does it matter? Sharma was really happy, and this unbridled happiness was especially evident in the dinner that his parents saw them off, and in the face of his parents' relief, he kept saying that he and the two brothers Patel would be their honor, or that they were already so.

There was only one person at the dinner who was unhappy, and that was Rya, because her two beloved brothers were about to leave her and start a great study, even though she didn't know what it was.

After the family dinner, Sharma's father, who had always been serious and reserved, said that he would talk to Sharma and Patel separately

"This dinner party is the climax of my life and Patel's life, after all, we are the family magnates, and we are young and ambitious, the spring breeze is proud but life is not always the climax, often when you think that you can see all the scenery at the apex, you forget to look at the foot, under the apex, there must be a very steep downhill road will bring a lot of difference to your life, understand? After that dinner, it all began, what shall I say? Uncle Johnny fell into the memory, squinting his eyes and muttering for a long time: "Actually, a lot of things happened that night, a lot, you know? For the first time, the subtle things that Patel and I were originally connected to began to crack a little. ”

The so-called separate conversation is actually different, and this truth was known by Sharma that night.

Talking to Patel alone, just to find an excuse to talk to Sharma alone, who keeps them inseparable? All Patel received were words of encouragement and hopes not to forget the glory of the family, while Sharma received some truth.

"I didn't expect that an unintentional act of kindness would bring you such a great opportunity, even though I thought that something must have gone wrong with the gods and inadvertently gave Patel such a good talent. I don't mean to blaspheme, for the gods are merciful, and I may have been touched by Patel's father, the Dalit who was a pariah, but had a brilliant mind. "Sharma's father was so direct, and the first sentence was so straight to the point.

This made Sharma stunned, although he had understood the difference between himself and Patel, but he was not used to his father talking like this, in his heart, although his father was serious and reserved, but in the end, he was kind, at least in terms of superficial treatment, he did not show that he was no different from Patel.

At that time, Sharma was young and vigorous after all, and he blurted out what he had directly, and he said to his father: "No, Dad, why do you talk like that?" Don't you think it's a thing to be happy that Patel has such a talent, even better than me? Although the system is estranged, we can't get the same treatment, but he is always our family, and we should be happy that he has a good future, rather than thinking of some gods' mistakes. ”

This was the first time that Sharma had verbally contradicted his father, but he thought he was not wrong, and he took it for granted that this kind and wise father would be sorry for what he had just said.

But he didn't want to, that day for the first time he saw a cold smile on his father's face, and the gaze that looked at him was pity, as if he was laughing at his son's childishness.

This silent sneer lasted on his father's face for a few seconds, and then turned into a burst of anger, and his father slapped the table fiercely, and then said to Sharma: "I have not told you what I think in my heart, because I want you to maintain a kind of holiness close to God, but holiness often requires some perseverance, not all mercy, otherwise how can you stick to your faith?" It's like God doesn't show mercy to the devil, it only harms the world! Dalits are Dalits, and their filthy blood is innate, irrevocably original sin, just like the difference between human birth and divine birth, human beings are born with original sin. ”

"Father, what the hell are you trying to say?" Sharma was so overwhelmed that, apparently, such a father was a stranger.

"I just want to remind you not to say that you and Patel are brothers, and I don't want to make the whole atmosphere awkward at the dinner party, so I can't bear to say anything about it because I have to accept some cruelty too soon. You just have to remember that a brahmin is a brahmin, a spokesman of God, and your gifts are taken for granted. And Dalit is just Dalit, no matter how talented he is, he can only walk behind you! Got it? His gift, which is God's occasional mercy for this sinful race, but also needs the leading of Brahmins, how can you say that you are brothers with sinners? Could it be that I have failed to educate you for more than ten years? So you can't even tell the most basic right from wrong? Sharma's father was visibly angry, and his tone became extremely harsh.

This kind of sternness made Sharma so uncomfortable, he didn't know what to say, and finally just mustered up the courage and said: "Father, but our relationship is really like brothers." I"

A loud slap slapped Sharma in the face, and Sharma's father could no longer remain calm and calm to speak to Sharma, and he almost roared and said to Sharma: "Do you have to tell me the truth?" You are the Son of God, and you will be the only supreme spokesman of the gods who will rise high, and what is Patel? He'll only be your divine guard for the rest of his life, you know? It can only be your divine guard! Once upon a time, if my adoption of him was God's goodness, then later I found that this child was different from other Dalits, and that the nurturing of him was the path I laid out for you, because you need a faithful, but very capable shadow who is ready to give your life for you, you know? ”

Sharma was completely stunned at the moment, he didn't understand what his father was talking about? Is everything just a conspiracy?

But Sharma's father was already completely angry at his son's 'foolish stubbornness', perhaps he was blaming himself for hiding too much in his daily life, perhaps he was annoyed that he thought Sharma was too young to instill in him some 'correct' ideas, or maybe he was in a hurry and only had one night, how could he let his only son understand all this?

Therefore, he didn't care whether Sharma could accept it at the moment, and simply said everything: "Sharma, do you think I'm wrong?" Do you think my goodness is hypocrisy? No, never! The adoption of a Dalit, by name, is really the greatest kindness, do you think the gods will adopt the devil? The gods won't! Do you think religion will judge me? Let him be your divine guard, let you suppress him, it is the decision of religion, they can't give up such a talent, but they can't allow a Dalit to master such a power, after all, he has sinful blood in his body, and he needs a noble brahmin to guard him, do you understand? ”

Sharma's head was buzzing at the moment, he felt that his world had been turned upside down, he looked at his father innocently, wondering if he should cry at this moment, crying that something he had always thought had collapsed. He was comforted a little by hearing about the decision of religion, and he never thought that religion would make any wrong decision, that was impossible.

After the roar, Sharma's father may have calmed down a little, he walked over and patted Sharma on the shoulder and said, "Forgive me for my anger just now, my dear son, I just don't want you to be ignorant, remember that original sin is original sin, and that is something that cannot be washed clean." I don't deny that Dalits can be kind, even as gifted as Patel, but they really need to be suppressed by the Brahmins, otherwise they will be derailed and will be truly ignited by the sins of the soul. You will understand what a divine guard is in the future, as long as he is a divine guard, you can easily suppress him in your life, this is what religious people told me. You don't necessarily need to do this, but you must be so guarded, my dear son, my best hope in this life, and I hope that next time I will not utter such foolish words as you and he are true brothers. ”

When he came out of his father's room, Sharma was groggy and groggy, in his young opinion, his father's words may be right, but it will take time to accept it, after all, after so many years of inseparable growth, that relationship is not fake, it is equal.

Why do feelings seem so pale and powerless in the face of religion? Or is it also the original sin of mankind? And didn't religion say that we should let go of the seven emotions and six desires? Have you been wrong all along?

Sharma was depressed, and did not go back to his room, but walked casually in the back garden of his house, and here, he saw Patel and Lya.
