The third parable was about Alexander on his deathbed. When he asked his hakeems–doctors, to give him a few breaths more they stood by helplessly. At that moment a vital revelation dawned upon Alexander and he said to himself:“Today I cannot get even a few breaths more! Alas, how many breaths I wasted in life pursuing the desires of the world!”As he saw the darkness of death come over him, he said:“Today when the entire world is receding from my sight, all that I can see is the face of the Faqueer I had met once in my life. I am going into the darkness ahead of me with only the help of the light of his blessings!”“Aaj main iss andhakaar men uss Faqueer ke aasheervaad ki mand roshni ke sahaare jaa rahaa hoon!”
