Amogh

This is among the first short-stories I wrote...long ago during my school days (probably in 1999.) I had been looking for this and was finally able to find this one again last week in an old text file which I had captured on my old PC from a diary. I seem to have taken some inspiration from Saytajit Ray's short stories as well as Charles Berlitz's books which I read a lot back then. (I also found some references in case you'd be intererested in reading: http://goo.gl/8tIQaU , http://goo.gl/mUQmSr ... I haven't read Alexandra David-Neel's book though.. should be intriguing.) I haven't edited/ corrected it to keep the style intact. I now realize that since people from my part of the world speak multiple languages, we sometimes drift towards literal translations thereby adding a few unnecessary words though we strive to preserve grammatical integrity. I hope you enjoy reading this 'Tale'.
