The last message

The last message, a direct one from Maaayi to Sharad.



This last one is not the actual recording but what Sharad hears when he plays the recordings. It is a kind of hallucination that Sharad has. In that, Maayi says, "How many more such years are you planning to waste? How much more delay are you going to do? Do you want to be like your father? Your father was my most dedicated but useless student. No one told him that being in the company of talented people and writing books about masters does not make you one. He lived a myth for almost all his life, but you don’t do that. You are different, and you know it. Your guru can’t tell you all this; he loves you and dependent on you.



When these words start coming to Sharad's ears, he decides to delete all the digital copies of Maayi's recordings and donates the original ones to a government collection centre.
