Chereads / Tragic End Of A Heroic Life / Chapter 17 - first cooking

Chapter 17 - first cooking

karan first wahed the ingredients and prepared them accordingly and after that he started cooking while keeping in mind all the safety measure his master taught him about yesterday.

Karan tried his best to prepare the lunch pefectly with all his abilities. But at last it was his first time cooking by himself so he was not able to prepare the dishes as he desired. After about an hour he was done preparing lunch. All dishes were prepared altough some were overly cooked and some were undecooked. He bought all the dishes at the table and went to call his master from the meditation room.

Old man Vishwas along with Karan went to thedining table and sat down. after observing the dishes for a short while with an expressionless face, he slowly picked up the dishes and started tasting them one by one. Karan was watching his master's every move nervously standing at the side. and he had every right to be nervous as it was his first time cooking and master was gonna tell the results shortly after tasting those dishes. These tense moments continued till the old man Vishwas finished tasting all the dishes and turned towards karan.

Old man Vishwas slowly opened his mouth and said " kid these rice are undercooked you should have boiled them for a little longer, these vegetables and overly cooked you should use your and observe them more carefully while cooking." old man Vishwas continued in this manner and poited at all the dishes while telling what went wrong and how could they be improved.

After telling his disciple about the shortcomings of dishes he prepared old man Vishwas said " this meal was barely eadible. but considering its your first attempt you really did well kid. next time remember everything i told you today and try to improve."

After hearing his master karan had a small smile on his face. He was neither disappointed nor discouraged as he understood this little thing that becoming good at everything requires time and efforts. And listening to his master's teachings, he understood that he was not really a failure and can improve in future with his efforts to become even better.

This type of mindset was really necessary for learning anything. It can even be said that this type of mindset was reflected in his actions, that was one of the deciding factors behind old man Vishwas's decision of taking him as his disciple.

old man Vishwas seeing his disciple's expression understood that he had the right mindset for becoming his disciple. In his heart slowly but surely karan was making a place for himself.

Old man Vishwas than asked karan to eat together. After eating his master asked karan to study in the study room and continue this routine, that he followed for the last whole day till he sensed the presence of matter energy in the environment. Karan did as instructed and time passed slowly.
