The little man with a long name















































































The little man with a long name
……………………………….
Yes he is Ashvyn Samar-Owen Roy, my grandson. To my knowledge he is the first person who had 2 baptisms in a span of one month. He was first baptized to Hinduism and then to Christianity. All these happened in Gold Coast, Australia. The bottom line is not what religion one follows but is whether one is good person who cares about others. Like the song in Hindi..” Tu Hindu banega na Musalman banega, Insan ka aulad hai tu insan banega….roughly translated it means “neither you will become Hindu nor Muslim but you are off spring of human being so you will become human”….We were sad to leave him and his parents in Australia on 2nd October, 07, but we were happy that he took the trouble of coming to the Brisbane Airport to see us off. He kept us busy with his antics before we proceeded for the security check

its the first time iv seen him properly....and i couldnt decide like whome did he actually look :)
and to add more..he so immensly cute...heheh
anyway...the point abt he being baptised twice reminds me of an article id read long back about hufkin following many religions together.....it read somethin like..."I wont be a human..nor a lion...nor a feather ... neither a God..for iv been blessed to be the man of my honour...with a fortune of my conviction and no religion to fall part."
must say he is the blessed one!!!
