Magic or Mafia ??

ok folks happy diwali to all of you . Diwali for me wasnt that great , i was in my college missed home and mall (pun intended). Anyways my college is in Guna (m.p) a remote place though it is theconstituency of Scindia's ,who are in fact the rulers of erst Gwalior . Perhaps they are busy with the politics in delhi and dnt care for the people here whom they take for granted as they are their Raja . Ok leaving the politics aside , Guna being a remote place has a lot of weird people ,their are A gang of Dakuus here too ( phulan devi Types).

So i banged into one of these people yesterday on diwali .It was dusk ,sun was biddind a goodbye and i was in a hurry to return to my campus.I had gone to Guna (main city ,college bein 30ks off it) to buy some crackers,candles etc . I am my friend were going to bus stop when a baggar came and asked for a rupee. It was Diwali ,i did not wanted to turn away this beggar i didnt had a ruppe so i gave him a coin of two instead and was about to proceed when this Man asked me to take his blessings. I thought why not , he picked up a stone ,and from no where another person came around , i dnt know what had happened to my mind as i never noticed his presence . i guess when we are busy we dnt really care about minute things , so this person came up i never protested his coming . The beggar took up a pebble and then second person (who came up recently) told me to wrap it up in a note . I looked in my purse and saw i had only a thousand note and two hundred notes , i took out one and wraped the pebble in it . The person now made me fold my hand into a Mutthi , and kept one of his hand over it , then he made me close my eyes and recite "Jai Mata Dii" .


And when i opened this mutthi to my amazement and horror ,my Rs 100 had changed into a locket . i was dumbstruck . I never realised when the 100 rs note slipped out of my hand and turned into a locket .

Was it magic or a trick ??

I am left wondering still but i guess it was a trick , these person told me to keep the locket with me always and went away .Now with all this happening , i wasnt alone my friend was woth me too . He managed to fool both of us .I still dont know how he managed to get that 100 bucks out and slip in the Tabeez . I kept the tabeez in a temple as my friends advised me , but still kind of
bugs me as to how this person made a fool out of me too easily , I decided to have no mercy on begaars anymore , world is so callous i used to think . I guess incidents like these makes people callous and i am being no exception afterall fr this money my parents had to toils hard > though i was lucky it could have been a thousands note too .


Although i do admire this person's "hath ki safai" as my friend said . Black magic said another friend but i am still wondering , though would love to meet this person again and this time i will be prepared with a fake note .

Anyways when we come across these situation i dnt know what happens to our mind , i believe all people must have had experiences when the mind doesn't know whats happening. This was a game and a trick i realised later cause i started talking with a beggar when the other person saw i was in their trap and i had given them a coin ,only then he came out of no-where.

And he befooled me as if i was a baby , it was a weird experience and i think i will be much more careful next time ,these persons always target you when ypou are alone or if you are not in a big group .

Its important to be a little vigilant cause these persons will rob you in front of your eyes and worse you cant even label them as theives.
