:::::::::Funny Experience in a Crowded Bus::::::::::
It was one day in the month of December. I was
traveling in a crowded bus form Sylhet to Moulovebazar. AT Sylhet Station a
large number of men and women got in, carrying earthen pots, bottles and
various kinds of pitchers. Since there were no seats they had to remain
standing. Soon I came to know that they had taken part in the annual Urs held
at Hazrat Shah jalal’s Dargah and were
them returning home carrying holy water from the dargah tank and spring. The
bus started after a littlie while. Can you imagine what happened every time
when there was a jolt? Many of us who were seated got drenched by the water
that spilled out from the vessels. When we expressed our annoyance, we were
promptly told that it was holy water and it would do us good. They did not quite see why we should complain. So we
had to travel all the way getting wet all over with the sacred water. This is
one of the most amusing and at the same time most annoying, experiences of my
life.
