It striked me finally.
Days after days, going through a series of interviews, the only reply I was getting was -->
"Will call you".
"Sorry, no hiring right now".
"Oh kid, you didn't make it".
"Blah blah".
It was weird that how so many people had the same song to sing.
Was there no company who had a single vacancy?
Where should I go now?
I was working so honestly for the company that I never thought of switching to other and getting a 20-30 % hike on existing package.
Then why this happened only with me?
Was I right, or was I a fool to ignore the opportunities which were there just before my resignation?
I'll consider the latter.
Because nowadays, here who is sincere, loyal, listener, etc. is a fool.
And now when I'll be having a job, I'll not be those.
While churning out the reason behind all these useless efforts which I was making past few days, I recalled something.
This did not seem humanly that everybody had the same answer for me.
It had chances of existence of something supernatural.
I remembered that I was owing to the Lord of obstacles, Shree Ganesh, especially Dagdusheth Halwai's.
My wife once was going through this same situation and at that time she had prayed saying that if she got a job, she will offer 21 modaks to this Ganpati.
And when she got the same after 2-3 months, both of us had forgotten about that.
As I saw on the calendar that the resignation call was on the same day of Shree Ganesh Jayanti, I realised what we wanted to do.
The very next day, we visited Dagdusheth Ganpati and fulfilled the promise.
In this travel, my wife was once again grateful to the Lord when her mobile escaped from the clutch of a pick pocketer.
And after hearing her, I was so relieved to think that if the Lord hadn't been so merciful and the phone had lost, then what had I done in this time of misery.
Thanking every now and then, we sat at the temple for few minutes.
Once again I was now praying to the same God to aside all the hindrance and grant me a new way of earning.
You know how it's so hard here to survive without a livinghood.
You can't sit at home beyond a certain limit.
And I was now able to see that limit coming near.
I held my hands together and asked Ganpati for a mercy.
And if it did so, I will do a thing.
I will .....................................................................
(Hey, it's secret.
How can I tell you right now before the result?)
And soon I left the premises, keeping there my another word.. my next "Vow".

Dagdusheth Halwai's Ganapati is one of the influential deities residing in Budhwar peth, Pune.
Many say that the God here listens to the devotees' vow and blesses them what they wanted.
But if a devotee fails to fulfill his / her vow, the Lord gets unpleasant and lays hindrance in his / her every way.
