The Year was 2022
In mountains of Himalayas,
Two Lama were sitting in a magnificent garden
Younger Lama asked,
"Who planted these beautiful trees and plants here?
Who created this garden?"
Elder Lama replied,
"Eight years ago,
A judge named R.M.Lodha was sitting here
Exactly at the same place where we are sitting today.
At that time this land was barren and dry
He was Chief Justice of India,
But he was given only two months time
To develop this large piece of land.
It was not possible to construct anything in two months
So in his mind, he designed a garden,
And spent two months in planting trees
And sowing seeds
At various points on this land.
Then he left at end of two months
But the plants and trees grew up into this garden
In 2022, these plants became full grown trees."
2)
"Where is this judge now?"
Asked Younger Lama
"He is there in ground below in 2014"
Elder Lama pointed out to a ground at footsteps of mountain
Younger Lama looked below in 2014
It looked like month of September
A crowd of lawyers and judges had gathered
In Supreme Court compound
It looked like farewell function for the judge
Every one was praising work of the judge
Everyone was wishing him happy retirement,
But inwardly everyone was happy that he was going.
Younger Lama asked
"Why everyone is looking happy that he is going?"
"Because after him,
No one was going to ask them to keep courts open
For 365 days a the year"
Elder Lama explained.
