is lekh ka punarikshan evan sampadan hona avashyak hai. ap isamean sahayata kar sakate haian. "sujhav"

aj kee din ke bad tisare pahar sooryadev ne prithvi ki pukar suni aur jaise samadhi se nikalakar use ashirvad de rahe the. prithvi mano aanchal phailae unaka ashirvad bator rahi thi.

isi vakt svami atmanand aur amarakant donoan do dishaoan se madarase mean ae.

amarakant ne mathe se pasina poanchhate hue kaha-ham logoan ne kitana achchha program banaya tha ki ek sath laute. ek kshan bhi vilamb n hua. kuchh kha-pikar phir nikalean aur ath bajate-bajate laut aean.

atmanand ne bhoomi par letakar kaha-bhaiya, abhi to mujhase ek pag n chala jaega. haan, pran lena chaho, to le lo. bhagate-bhagate kachoomar nikal gaya. pahale sharbat banavao, pikar thande hoan, to aankhean khulean.

'to phir aj ka kam samapt ho chuka?'

'ho ya bha d mean jay, kya pran de dean- tumase ho sakata hai karo, mujhase to nahian ho sakata.'

amar ne muskarakar kaha-yar mujhase doone to ho, phir bhi chean bol ge. mujhe apana bal aur apana pachan de do, phir dekho, maian kya karata hooan-

atmanand ne socha tha, unaki pith thoanki jaegi, yahaan unake pauroosh par akshep hua. bole-tum marana chahate ho, maian jina chahata hooan.

'jine ka uddeshy to karm hai.'

'haan, mere jivan ka uddeshy karm hi hai. tumhare jivan ka uddeshy to akal mrityu hai.'

'achchha sharbat pilavata hooan, usamean dahi bhi dalava dooan?'

'haan, dahi ki matra adhik ho aur do lote se kam n ho. isake do ghante bad bhojan chahie.'

'mar dala tab tak to din hi gayab ho jaega.'

amar ne munni ko bulakar sharbat banane ko kaha aur svamiji ke barabar hi zamin par letakar poochha-ilake ki kya halat hai-

'mujhe to bhay ho raha hai, ki log dhokha deange. bedakhali shuroo huee, to bahutoan ke asan dol jaeange .'

'tum to darshanik n the, yah ghi patto par ya patta ghi par ki shanka kahaan se lae?'

'aisa kam hi kyoan kiya jay, jisaka aant lajja aur apaman ho- maian tumase saty kahata hooan, mujhe b di nirasha huee.'

'isaka arth yah hai ki ap is aandolan ke nayak banane ke yogy nahian haian. neta mean atmavishvas, sahas aur dhairy, ye mukhy lakshan haian.'

munni sharbat banakar laee. atmanand ne kamandal bhar liya aur ek saans mean chadha ge. amarakant ek katore se jyada n pi sake.

atmanand ne muanh chhipakar kaha-bas phir bhi ap apane ko manushy kahate haian-

amar ne javab diya-bahut khana pashuoan ka kam hai.

'jo kha nahian sakata vah kam kya karega?'

'nahian, jo kam khata hai, vahi kam kar sakata hai. petoo ke lie sabase b da kam bhojan pachana hai.'

saloni kal se bimar thi. amar use dekhane chala tha ki madarase ke samane hi motar ate dekhakar rook gaya. shayad is gaanv mean motar pahali bar aee ho. vah soch raha tha, kisaki motar hai ki salim usamean se utar p da. amar ne lapakakar hath milaya-koee zaroori kam tha, mujhe kyoan n bula liya-

donoan adami madarase mean ae. amar ne ek khat lakar dal di aur bola-tumhari kya khatir karooan- yahaan to kamandal ki halat hai. sharbat banavaooan-

salim ne sigar jalate hue kaha-nahian, koee takalluph nahian. mi. gajanavi tumase kisi muamale mean salah karana chahate haian. maian aj hi ja raha hooan. socha, tumhean bhi leta chalooan. tumane to kal ag laga hi di. ab tahakikat se kya phayada hoga- vah to bekar ho gee.

amar ne kuchh jhijhakate hue kaha-mahantaji ne majaboor kar diya. kya karata-

salim ne dosti ki a d li-magar itana to sochate ki yah mera ilaka hai aur yahaan ki sari zimmedari mujh par hai. maianne s dak ke kinare aksar gaanvoan mainean logoan ke jamav dekhe. kahian-kahian to meri motar par patthar bhi pheanke ge. yah achchhe asar nahian haian. mujhe khauph hai, koee hangama n ho jay. apane hak ke lie ya beja julm ke khilaf riaya mean josh ho, to maian ise bura nahian samajhata, lekin yah log kayade-kanoon ke aandar raheange, mujhe isamean shak hai. tumane gooangoan ko avaz di, sotoan ko jagaya lekin aisi taharik ke lie jitane jabt aur sabr ki zaroorat hai, usaka dasavaan bhi hissa mujhe najar nahian ata.

amar ko is kathan mean shasan-paksh ki gandh aee. bola-tumhean yakin hai ki tum bhi vah galati nahian kar rahe, jo hukkam kiya karate haian- jinaki ziandagi aram aur pharagat se gujar rahi hai, unake lie sabr aur jabt ki haank lagana asan hai lekin jinaki ziandagi ka harek din ek nee musibat hai, vah najat ko apani janavasi chal se ane ka iantazar nahian kar sakate. yah use khianch lana chahate haian, aur jald-se-jald.

'magar najat ke pahale kayamat aegi, yah bhi yad rahe.'

'hamare lie yah aandher hi kayamat hai jab paidavar lagat se bhi kam ho, to lagan ki guanjaish kahaan - us par bhi ham ath ane par raji the. magar barah ane ham kisi tarah nahian de sakate. akhir sarakar kiphayat kyoan nahian karati- pulis aur fauj aur iantajam par kyoan itani bedardi se rupaye u dae jate haian- kisan gooange haian, bebas haian, kamazor haian. kya isalie sara najala unhian par girana chahie?'

salim ne adhikar-garv se kaha-to natija kya hoga, janate ho- gaanv-ke-gaanv barbad ho jaeange, fauji qanoon jari ho jaega, shayad pulis baitha di jaegi, phasalean nilam kar di jaeangi, zaminean jabt ho jaeangi. kayamat ka samana hoga?'

amarakant ne avichalit bhav se kaha-jo kuchh bhi ho, mar-mitana julm ke samane sir jhukane se achchha hai.

madarase ke samane hujoom badhata jata tha-salim ne vivad ka aant karane ke lie kaha-chalo is muamale par raste mean bahas kareange. der ho rahi hai.

amar ne chatapat kurata gale mean dala aur atmanand se do-char zaroori batean karake a gaya. donoan adami akar motar par baithe. motar chali, to salim ki aankhoan mean aansoo dabadabae hue the. amar ne sashank hokar poochha-mere sath daga to nahian kar rahe ho-

salim amar ke gale lipatakar bola-isake siva aur doosara rasta n tha. maian nahian chahata tha ki tumhean pulis ke hathoan jalil kiya jay.

'to jara thaharo, maian apani kuchh zaroori chizean to le looan.'

'haan-haan, le lo, lekin raj khul gaya, to yahaan meri lash najar aegi.'

'to chalo koee mujayaka nahian.'

gaanv ke bahar nikale hi the ki munni ati huee dikhaee di. amar ne motar rookavakar poochha-tum kahaan gee thian, munni- dhaobi se mere kap de lekar rakh lena, saloni kaki ke lie meri kothari mean tak par dava rakhi hai. pila dena.

munni ne sahami huee aankhoan se dekhakar kaha-tum kahaan jate ho-

'ek dost ke yahaan davat khane ja raha hooan.'

motar chali. munni ne poochha-kab tak aoge-

amar ne sir nikalakar usase donoan hath jo dakar kaha-jab bhagy lae.
