The Existence of God..!!

Once upon a time, there was a King who used to have debates with his beloved Queen over the topic of the existence of God on the planet. The Queen used to say that God exists and arranges for everyone whatever is written in his or her fate. Even a small creature is not barred. From a tiny Ant to the mammoth Elephant, God arranges food and shelter for every living thing. 

One day, the King decided to test Queen’s belief about God. What he did was he caught an innocent Ant and locked it in a tiny compact box. The King wanted to test how his Queen’s imaginary Almighty arranges food for that tiny creature trapped in a box? He decided to keep that Ant empty stomach for a whole day and wanted to prove that, if his Queen’s God existed, then why didn’t he saved her from starving to death?

The King went to the Queen, holding that compact box. He  informed her that he had trapped an Ant in that box. The King added that he wanted to test her theory of Almighty existence. He would open that compact box only after 24 hours to find dead Ant. That would prove that God won’t necessarily arrange food for every living thing, in fact God never existed. The Queen remained silent. She believed in God deep necked, so she had an undoubted faith that God must have arranged something for that tiny creature packed in that compact box. The Queen did not argue and just smiled at his King. 

The King took his Queen’s leave and left. He kept that small box with him the whole day. The box was by his side during his court proceeding. The box was by his side when he took his meals. Even the box was beside him in his bedroom in the night. That night, the Queen slept peacefully but the King was unable to sleep. He kept tossing and turning and waited for the sun to rise and open the box to see the fate of the Ant. By that way he would prove his lovely Queen wrong. In fact, two – three times the sympathetic King wanted to open the box and release the Ant.  Inwardly, he felt bad for that Ant, after all he was a kind King. He would have proved his point otherwise, not at the cost of poor Ant.

Well, finally, the ever lasting night of the King passed . In the morning, the first thing he did was he went to the Queen who was in front of Lord Krishna in temple room.  He waited impatiently holding the compact box, until the Queen finished her worship. The Queen attended him and gestured her to open the box. The impatient King opened the box in front of the Queen. The moment the king opened the lid of the small box, he was flabbergasted by what he had just seen. The King felt shocked and taken aback by what he had seen. He handed over the open box to the Queen dumbstruck. The Queen looked in it, then turned to the King and smiled at him. Previous day, when the King was capturing the Ant in the small box,  a piece of rice from his forehead Tilak had slipped and dropped in the small box, and remained unnoticed. The Ant was eating the same rice. In fact, half a rice was already eaten. Once the lid was opened and the box kept on the floor, the ambitious Ant started walking holding the half rice in its mouth.  The Queen kept looking at the King, while the King was busy observing the Ant who was holding the half rice more than the weight and height of its own.

The King realized that indeed the God arranged for every living thing

The Queen said, “The Great King, you will get whatever is written in your fate. The universe will conspire you to get the thing which is in your luck. However, do whatever, if something is not in your fate, you will never ever get. Even the Almighty can't help you to get it”

The King couldn’t speak a single word and kept looking in the direction of the Ant. He lost in thoughts and stood still like a statue
