Whenever I saw this foreigner girl, she was always
busy having selfies with the batch-mates, teachers or director. She even enjoyed
having selfies with the priest, cook and cook’s assistants. She hadn’t left
anybody in the Ashram with whom she hadn’t clicked the selfies with. She was a
crazy ‘Selfie girl’!
One day, we were studying a serious topic in the class
about the Vedanta philosophy when she noticed a big monkey passing by the
corridor at a distance. She was happy like a child. She was excited. It seemed
that if she wanted to have a selfie even with that monkey!
Three days before the examination day, she prepared a
mock paper which she solved with some of her friends. I was surprised rather
shocked to see her uttering all the Sanskrit terms correctly along with their
meanings whereas in the class she was not able to understand some of the words
in English. To help her, one of her friends translated the difficult words in
her mother tongue for better understanding. In the busy schedule of one class
after another, surprisingly she found time to click selfies as well as to mug
up complex words and theories whereas I couldn’t find time for both.
