English Translation
"MOMMY, THIS IS AWESOME," Martia yelled out.
"I knew you like it dear. What about the rest of you?" She asked.
They were speechless, and nodded their heads. They did not have to answer their mother, she know they are fond of their new home. Khara has a big beautiful smile on her face moving from room to room. The living room is massive and holds three gold color couches and a rainbow lamp. The floors are a black marble color and the curtains are shiny gold, and the walls are light pink.
All the children wandered around the house in excitement.
"I want a house warming. What you think hun?" She asked looking directly at her husband.
"House warming? Really?" He asked, shocked.
She nods her head. "Why not hun, this would be a great beginning for all of us, the kids needs it to get a fresh start. We came this far out as immigrants. We need this, we need this new journey to live hun, thanks to you and your new job as an Amazon worker. You know, if they really love this home they will love their new school too," she said, smiling.
"Anything for you hun. The kids going to like their school, this seems like a quite nice environment. Now what about the warming? You inviting the crazy family huh?" He asked.
"The crazy family?" She asked.
"Yea, your cousin Vinit, your uncle Jayant? They are insane, you know they drink, they argue, they're wild monkeys," he states.
"Aw come on, what about your brother Sumit?" She asked.
"Sumit?" He asked.
"Yes Sumit, that crazy man always begs and begs. Does he work?" She asked being curious.
"Yes, he has two jobs," he said.
"Then why he begs people for money?" She asked.
"Well you know, that's just Sumit, that's just the way he is," he said.
She sighs. "I'm going to make dinner, we will talk more about the house warming during dinner time," she said, walking towards the kitchen.
"What's on the dinner menu hun?" He asked rubbing his stomache.
"Raj ma rice with Dal Makhni," she said.
"Yuum, my favorite baby," he said.
Three hours later, dinner is finally ready. Instead of the Agarwals eating at the table, they eat their dinner on the floor by the wide window. Abe and Joseq moves the big dinning table over to the left side of the room. Khara puts the dishes on the floor neatly, and before they eat they join their hands, close their eyes and say a prayer.
\
\\\"Wow, Rajma rice with Dal Makhni, now you\\\'re talking mommy,\\\" Mala said smiling.\
They all are together on the floor, and before they eat, they say a prayer.\

[The whole creation being the gross projection of Brahman, the Cosmic Consciousness itself; the food too is Brahman, the process of offering it is Brahman; it is being offered in the fire of Brahman. He who thus sees that Brahman is action reaches Brahman alone.]
