Priya Nath discusses Dr. Corolli’s medicines with Shri Nathji. This becomes the only subject that Priya Nath discusses with Shri Nathji these days. Shri Nathji however does not want Priya Nath to worry so excessively and says that he is stretching the point too far.“Fool I am, creating alarm after alarm for Pitaji. I am his only means of communication with the outside world and constantly worry and alarm him with distasteful and worrisome news. Maybe this is the reasoning for the worsening heart condition.”Priya Nath recalls how heart patients are seen moving around everywhere. There is Dr. Dharamvir Talwar who recovered from a deadly heart attack, who is travelling in trains. There is Dr. Shakuntala Talwar who has even flown by plane to Mauritius after a heart attack. There are Prem Kumar Jauhar and numerous other heart patients who were leading normal lives after receiving medication that suited them. “If the attacks come even after he has been sent away, what will we say then?”There are letters from Shri B.V. Tekade and Mangla from Nagpur which are full of faith and devotion and which Shri Nathji likes immensely. Although Priya Nath had shown him the letters he wonders later whether he should be giving any kind of news at all to Shri Nathji. He records in his diary:“I must keep Pitaji happy with ghazals, and not discuss any worrisome matters. I must tell him only of good, happy events, I must keep him joyful. I must go on playing the ghazals and not withhold them – as I had been doing for some days, because I considered their tunes to be sad and melancholic.”Priya Nath calls Corolli, but he is too busy to come. He speaks to Prem Kumar Jauhar on the phone, who suggests going to Dr. Padmavati, another eminent cardiologist of the city, who believes that Sorbitrate is the best drug in the world for the heart. “Chalne do jaise chal rahaa hai. Ab“Let things drift as they are–forget about changing doctors or medicines. I will manage to pull on somehow!”The words break Priya Nath’s heart. Shri Nathji was so good that he preferred to suffer in silence rather than let Priya Nath worry about him or to make him search for another doctor or newer medicines.“I am depressed, terribly depressed. I haven’t been able to do anything for Pitaji.It appears as if everything is going against them, as if the forces of Nature are gathered together to cause as much suffering to Shri Nathji as they possibly can.“Yaa to aise jism men janam lenaa thhaa jiss men beemaari naa hoti–aur yaa davaayiyaan“Either you should have taken birth in a body in which no illnesses came or else the body should have been able to tolerate the medicines.”If there was another God, Priya Nath could never forgive him for allowing Shri Nathji to suffer, and if Shri Nathji was God Himself then Priya Nath could never reconcile himself to seeing him suffer. It was a manushya leela beyond his comprehension.
