This is a story of 500 years ago when Volchansk city was on the verge of its ashes. the entire city was encamped by the Oluenza virus. The river Volchansk flowing from Volchansk was also so badly filthy that if anyone went near his lamp, he would die due to suffocation. In this city, people were killing each other to fill their stomachs. Nobody was looking at people's conditions; everyone wants “Food and Water”. They had to do this to keep alive.



Oluenza virus was killing people as it absorbs in air and people died as soon as they breathe.

The condition of Volchansk city was becoming so bad, day by day that half of the city had become a crematorium.



Nobody was ready to touch anyone‘s corpse. The whole city had become worse than hell. Now, it seemed this city would be completely destroyed in a few days and no one would be alive.



The oluenza virus comes from the mistakes of the people of Volchansk. People here used to dump all the waste in the Volchanka River. They were thinking that all this waste would flow with water and also they were using this river‘s water for drinking. These people used to throw garbage, if there was a lot of garbage at one place then they started throwing them at another place. Like this people had been doing this for years but one day their habit of dumping garbage anywhere was overshadowed by them. Volchanka River stopped but still, the people of Volchansk did not stop putting garbage. In this way, the oluenza reaches people’s houses with water and water is also necessary like air. So this disease reached all the houses of the city and gradually everyone started dying. They would never think that their mistakes would be so heavy on them. There will be not a single-family in the entire Volchansk who have not lost any of their members. But it was a good thing about this city that all people here celebrate a big festival on every full-moon day and they used to worship God “Tzaritsa” and they used to celebrate this festival together and with great pomp.

God Tzaritsa was witnessing complete devastation. He said now all these people have got their punishment so god came in one Buddhist’s dream and said “my son, you go to Volchansk city and it is my order to rescue the people there from the havoc of ruin”. The nun-Buddhist did what god said. The Buddha left for the Volchansk the next day. When he reached there he saw that more than half the city had become a crematorium. There is the sound of crying coming from many places and the sound of fighting also coming from somewhere. Then Buddha took out a conch from his bag and played it in a loud melody. The melodious tune was heard by all the people over the city. People are come across the roads to see who has played such a melodious tune

That sounds like a light in the darkness.



After being seeing people gathered the nun- Buddhist said “I have come here at the behest of goddess Tzaritsa to relieve you all from disaster but I will help all of you only, when all of you promise me that you will make the Volchansk a green and pollution-free city, saying this he became silent. His voice was heard in the same rhythm to all the people. People standing far away heard the Buddha voice in the same rhythm as those standing ahead. Everyone‘s voice came “we promise you that we make the Volchansk a very beautiful and keeps the city green and clean. We will not throw any garbage in the river please help us, help us”…



The Buddha encamped under a banyan tree and gave rudraksh. to some people and said “wherever you put this rudraksh there will be created a fountain of pure clean water till tomorrow with which all of you can solve your problems. All the people did what the Buddha said to them.



In a few days, fresh water reached every house in Volchansk city and they cleaned the entire city. The river drains were cleaned with pure water, which erased the traces of oluenza virus, and once again the entire Volchansk city came to devotion when the work was finished the water fountain became Rudrash back. When the nun-Buddhist started going, the resident of the city thanked him a lot and one of the children asked him “you are a real God, what’s your real name”?



The nun-Buddhist smiled and looked at the child and said” Gautama “.
