“Greetings, sir. Name’s David. Now that your fame has skyrocketed

across the globe with this discovery, what would your next project be,
sir?”, asked one of the reporters at the press meet.

“Well, I always loved exploring myths using science. Over many years,
there have been dozens of myths that I truly wanted to venture into.

Myths that are left unanswered to be proven scientifically. That’s what

I’m thinking about lately. During my childhood, I remembered reading a

verse in Bhagavad Gita, saying that we, humans reincarnate many times
throughout our lives to receive a state of “Godliness” called Moksha. Yet,

the truth behind this myth remains a question mark till date. So, I want to

prove whether reincarnation is a myth or an undisputed fact. As a
scientist, venturing into this mythical world and proving it right or wrong

will be my next project”, answered Pragnanth.

The interviewers were awestruck upon listening to Pragnanth’s project.
A wave of goosepimples seized the atmosphere. Hours later, the press

meet ended and the flabbergasted throng dispersed. A tinge of flattery

was palpable in everyone’s faces except mine which was a stark contrast
to them.

“Any problem, Mark? Looking pissed off”.

“Zip it, Pragnanth! I was the one who came up with prontosil at first. You

confiscated it from me for the Nobel Prize award and as a friend, I rooted

for you. I gave up my 3-years dream just like that for you to grasp what

you craved for. And what’s all these, Pragnanth? This reincarnation
project was mine. Just like the prontosil. You told them that this is your

own project, didn’t you? I worked more than you could ever imagine for

this project, Pragnanth. Don’t you dare take it away from me”.
