““One night, he went to bed and had a dream. He saw Yama standing in front of him. Yama was holding out a hand towards him and saying, ‘Come, it is time for you to go away with me.’ Arun was terrified. ‘But lord, you had promised you would tell me days in advance before I would die. How can I come away right now?’ A small smile appeared on Yama’s lips. ‘But child, I did give you a warning. I made your hair turn white, I made your back stoop with age, I made your teeth fall out one by one. These were all indications that your time on earth is coming to an end.’ ‘But these things happen to every man and woman! How could these be a warning only for me!’ Yama nodded, ‘Yes, they do happen to everyone. And when they do, men and women should start getting ready to meet me. Life has to come to an end, there is no escape.””
