Chapter 38 . But Rafael, what happens for the people who go to monastery, they do not have any relationship, they are not married, but still they reach God soul?” “The best way of life is being ascetic, which means, deny yourself the bodily pleasures.” “Its easy to say than done, Rafael. I really cannot imagine to stop my craving to ear burgers and pizzas. So when we grow big, God alone knows what all cravings do we have and how are we going to control it.” “You are right Mark, its not easy to control. Actually this tendency is brought into us through our mind. It always, forces our body to do it again and again and in the end, our heart feels, yes, its true, we would feel happy and fulfills our craving. But if we know the root cause of our craving is the mind, then we are able to put all our cravings under lock and key, so as not to divert us from reaching us to God soul.” “Why should we reach God soul, Rafael?” “To be at peace with ourselves, to be h

Chapter 37 “Then what happened Rafael, did Alfonso and Isabella get married?” “Yes they got married, before long.” “But Rafael, is it necessary to get married?” “Man, when born has only one goal, to be united with God, but since they gain a physical form, they lose their goal in the process.” “How do they lose their goal Rafael?” “Simple, the soul is locked in the physical body and there the goal too gets blocked, thus losing sight of it.” “When man is born, he has several basic needs like food, water, air, clothing, then it grows to name, fame and money. But even if we fulfill all the needs to the brim, it would not bring contentment, then man understands, that the missing thing is love and for that, another quest starts, the perfect love, a love which really brings contentment.” “Do we really get that type of love?” “In the physical world, we would not get it, but if you are spiritually awaken, you will know, no human being can give you that

Chapter 36 Isabella was dumbstruck when she heard Alfonso saying callously her future and her father was too happy to hear it too. She just wanted to flee from the place.. She wished if she had dropped dead.” Nobody knew what was going through her except Dr. Martin. So he didn’t delay, what he had in mind.” “What did he do Rafael?” “He heard everything what Alfonso had to say and smiled and nodded.” “Yes you are right Alfonso, it is time for her to decide what should she do.” All nodded and Dr. Martin turned to her daughter and asked, “Daughter, what do you think, I tried to persuade Alfonso to take you to the island, what do you think, do you want to get married to a nice man and live a life of utter boredom or accompany Alfonso and become a piratess?” Isabella couldn’t believe her ears. “Father, are you saying that I can decide between the two evils?” “Yes, my child, you have a choice, if you want my consent, I’ll give for the second one.” All mouth ga

Chapter 35 “Were they able to build a township Rafael?” “Yes they built a large township and when the first township was ready. Alfonso  gave a long vacation for the workers and set a date for their return and paid their wages and brought them all in his ships to the main land. Since the only family Alfonso had was Dr. Martin and Isabella, the crew returned to the mainland and to |Dr. Martin’s place. Isabella was very happy to see Alfonso. Seeing her happiness, Dr. Martin understood that his daughter had found her mate in Alfonso. And he knew that Alfonso was a good man too and he would take good care of Isabella, but if Alfonso doesn’t love her, then, it is no use for Isabella to wait for Alfonso. So he decided to test Alfonso to know how he felt about Isabella. So one day while they were having breakfast, Dr. Martin asked, “Alfonso, I have been thinking about my hospital, which we had planned to construct here in the main land.” All nodded “Since you people are mostly

Chapter 34 “Rafael so what happened to the island? Was it of any use? They star ted a township, that was what you told. But how could that be possible without people?” “Alfonso advertised in the local newspapers and by word of mouth and especially Dr. Martin who recommended many a people to the island.  Alfonso used all his resources and his ships to bring the work force, necessary materials  to the island and gave them good wages.” “I feel that they might be like they were in the moon, isn’t it Rafael? Only the work force and no neighbours.” “Hmm. They were away from home for sure  and their life was far luxurious than they could imagine. They were truthful and dedicated too. They had full faith in Alfonso and all the crew members too joined forces as it was a joint venture.” “Oh!!!!!!!!! That’ really good isn’t it Rafael?” “Yes, its always good to be together than separated.” “When we look at nature look at the trees, its not a single leaf or a single flower o

Chapter 33 "Rafael does it make any difference? If no one loves us, naturally we'd get depressed and we would not be  in a mood to love anybody since we are sure they would not return our love." "That is the beauty of life Ajay, nothing can be expected, everything we get is always a surprise." "I love surprises Rafael, If it is good surprises, if I get a birthday gift or a christmas gift, I love to have it but other than that, I'm a bit scared Rafael." "Its natural, but taking risk is what is necessary in life. Now  in the story which we were talking about Alfonso, took lots of risks, though he didn't know the basics of medicine, he wasn't frightened to help Dr. Martin, he wasn't frightened to help the princess, who could have cheated him, but still he did it because he was courageous enough to face, even if it ends bad, and the result, he was successful in all his ventures and he also got riches too. So what d

Chapter - 32 "Rafael, is it true, that, everything will a happy ending?" "Yes Everything should have a happy ending. That is what we are here for Ajay." "Thanks Rafael, its good to hear it. Then what happened to Alfonso?" "Well he built what was necessary for a small township with the help of Dr. Martin and he collected all the unwanted people from the main land." "But why did he do that Rafael?" "There was a time, when he felt, that he wanted to be loved and at that time, there was no one to love him. So, he decided to love someone else for a difference and that is how he got a crew, who loved him with their life. So he liked that feeling of loving others without expecting anything in return." "Oh! that's lovely, isn't it? Rafael?" "Yes, its lovely. So the best way to make ourselves happy is to love others as you want to be loved and you will never regret. The love would return no
