STORIES AS NARRATED TO ME ABOUT OUR "GRAND FATHER"

A TRUE STORY ABOUT GRAND FATHER MARRYING THREE TIMES, & THREE WISHES GRANTED TO HIM.

1. He had no children, and after his second marriage failed to bring any off spring, he decided to kill him self, and was wandering in jungle for a place.
2. In that wandering in Jungle, he came across, a HOLY PRIEST or devotee of God, who told him, by reading his face, his anxiety, and that he has a cure.
3. He was told to live in his THATCHED HUT for next few weeks / months I do not know how many? But once he is happy with his service, (day to day chores of helping Priest) Priest will let him know, what next.
4. On the dedicated service of our Grand Father, as devotee, one day Priest told him to get ready, next morning at 4 am, before sun rise, have a wash, have morning prayers, and then they both will go to near by HOLY PEOPLE TREE, which is considered as auspicious in our Hindu customs.
5. This was done, and on that morning, when they both were near, the trunk of people tree. Prayers as per Vedas were recited by Priest, and later came forward, and gave him the "THREE WISHES", and told him to take all of them
6. First wish was obvious, that he should have a family, so it means he will marry again. It was granted by placing a nail with a hammer on the trunk of the holy people tree.
7. Second wish was to see, his Talwar dynasty to move forward, and that will yield children male in particular. (Later he had three sons and one daughter). His second wish was also nailed with a hammer on the trunk of the holy people tree.
8. Third wish - when he was asked to exercise his right for third wish, he touched PRIEST feet, with words I have got every thing, and hence no more.
9. But, he was coaxed and was given lot of leads, like wealth, fame, could be many more, it took him another 2 to 3 HRS to think what is right for him. Priest said I have to give, but finally surprisingly, what he asked>>.
10. He told Priest, that although, I am humbled but since you are asking me, he said to Priest, that some times I get pain in my Teeth, for chewing sugarcane for its juice. So I would like to have my teeth in good health. He was given lot more time to think>>>.
11. But finally, he was granted this by nailing on the holy people tree trunk his third wish.
12. As per my Dad and his eldest brother, our Grand Father had all 32 teeth intact, even when he had his last breath for heavenly abode. 
13. I do not know exact age, but was told he lived 70YRS. My dad was 17yrs of age then, i.e. 1915 +17= 1922, so he left us in the year 1922 / 23 approx.
