In the deserted forest bordering Haryana and Himachal, such an example of humanity is being seen, which has won everyone’s heart. In this period of scorching heat, where people are avoiding leaving their homes, Palaram of Yamunanagar has been busy quenching the thirst of passers-by for the last 12 years. Every day, Palaram stands barefoot on the forest road leading from Nagli to Ranjitpur village, stops people passing by and gives them cold water.
They bring water from a distance of five kilometers with a pot on their head.
There are five big pots kept in his small hut built in the middle of the forest, which are always filled with water. The special thing is that this water does not come from any pipeline or tanker, rather Palaram himself brings water from about five kilometers away with a pot on his head.
I find peace by giving water to the thirsty – Palaram
Palaram tells that he started this service on the advice of Baba of Sirsa. In the beginning he did not even think that this work would continue for so long, but the prayers and blessings of the passers-by continuously inspired him. They say that when a thirsty person drinks water and moves ahead with a relaxed face, he gets spiritual peace.
Palaram is no less than an angel!
Palaram is no less than an angel for the travelers passing through the forest in this scorching heat. Many passers-by told that there is no water facility in the far distance and in such a situation, this service of Palaram has become a great relief for the people. Passersby say that they get great relief by drinking cold water in the summer and this effort of Palaram is an example of humanity.
Palaram does not ask for anything in return for service.
Although Palaram does not ask for anything in return for this service, many people on the way happily give him 10 or 20 rupees, so that his noble work continues. In today’s era, where people are busy with their own selfish interests, Palaram is setting an example of humanity without any greed. His service gives a message to the society that if there is a feeling of service in the mind, then even a small effort can become a relief for thousands of people.
