Similarly we have no patience in waiting. When you see the T.V. news
you may notice one thing. The Ooty train is often stranded in the
middle of a forest. The Indian travellers will weep saying they have
planned a lot and everything failed due to this old train. But the
foreigners will say “oh,this place is also beautiful, we are enjoying
this natural sceneries.” saying this they will concentrate in taking
photoes around them in that unknown place. After all what you
can do in Ooty you can do it in Ketti also.
In the pullumedu also you can see there is only a vast open land.
Only the approach road is small. So if the pilgrims are waiting
there sitting in the ground singing the devotional songs nothing
bad will happen. Instead if they push one another in the dark as
they are doing it in their hometowns to catch the citybus, to get
cinema ticket, to get inside a bank counter,arquing for everything,
not able to wait in signals, always crying emotionally,fighting with
the next two wheeler rider for accidental touch of his hand,pushing
the old man infront of you even in ATM machines, stampede will
be the only result.
So next time when you are in a tour don’t be in a hurry. Don’t
plan a tour of Trichy,Pillaiyarpatti,Madurai,Kanyakumari,Tiruchendur,
Kutralam,Ariyankavu,Sabarimalai,Guruvayur, all in four days. Accident
will only be the result. Drivers are suffering a lot with these hurry burry
Pilgrimage. As the tourist operator will leave the place in the next
morning you are running in the pullumedu or in Sannithanam.
Result is these type of incidents.
Next time when you are in pullumedu don’t run here and there.
just sit in the muddy ground and enjoy the birds singing or
atleast the owl’s howling. Let all those three lakhs friends run.
Even let the sun may rise. Enjoy the nature. Nature is God.
Don’t worry. You are not alone. Forest watch tower and
Communication tower are there. So people are there
already. It is not a forest at all.
