Advik Chronicles

Below are some of the events about my son Advik (Born in Jan 2017) that I would like to store somewhere. I will keep updating this.

Jun 2021

Neetika was tensed about some work. She passed by Advik and told him, that there is a lot of work to do, and I am tesnsed about the work. He said in a complete nonchalant manner 'Ek divas tu pan marnar ahes. Tension nako gheus.')

(One day even you are going to die, dont take tension about your work now)

We were all stumped. And we looked at each other about what we have just heard.

Jul 2021

I told Advik the story of Jayadrath. How Krishna covered the sun with his Sudarshan Chakra and everyone felt that it was night and then it became easy to kill Jayadrath. He was silent after the story. I sensed he needs some answers. I asked him, "Do you have any questions."

Prompt came the question "Baba, Sudarshan Charkra kasa purnaa suryala cover karnar? Tyacha madhe tar ek hole ahe." ('Sudarshan Chakra has a hole in the middle, how can it cover the sun entirely?')

7th Aug 2021

Onkar, Advik and I were playing Antakshari. Onkar sang, 'Ramaiya Vastavayya ... Maine dil tujh ko diya ... Ya'

Then came Advik's turn, 'Yada Yada his dharmasya ....'

I told a story to Advik where the moral of the story was "Never lie".

He himself said - "Khota nahi bolaycha"

Then came a comment "Pan Baba, jarka khota nahi bolaycha tar mag khota astach kashala?"

(But dad, if we are not supposed to lie then why does 'lie' exist?)
