Yamer Aruchi (Beng.)
(Meaning unpalatable for the Hindu Lord of Death)
Yama: Hi-Hin-Hi, Busy alias Bachhu alias Naatakbaj, I came again.
Naatakbaj: You touched me long ago, why again?
Y: I come visiting according to my rules, until I take you to heaven.
N: Khik-Khik, why not hell?
Y: My choice!
N: Why did you not kill me when I was very young, say ten years of age?
Y: Then Brahmins would make you a "martyr" and call you "Abhimani Karna". In stead I made you a commie.
N: I am a subidhabadi.
Y: Why do you want to become Busy, not remain Bachchu?
N: Busy is older and bigger than Bachchu; and Hindu Gods do not like me?
Y: Why?
N: I think they are angry, jealous, and cause tension. I like caring father Jesus, the loving caring Jesus who paid for our sins.
Y: If you love too much you can only pay. What happened with your students in Kharagpur and Bangalore?
N: I agree.
Y: What is between me and you?
N: I have no tension; only had fear first few times. At time little mistrust.
Y: I am not angry, I am not jealous, and I have no tension?
N: Why did you not kill me at twenty?
Y: Because you were Bachchu, not Bata not Alok neither Kanti. I made you Busy.
N: What for?
Y: There are other reasons.
N: Why did you not kill me in Chicago?
Y: Instead I fucked Prakash and Bob, and everybody booked you for mental health.
N: True. That's why I wnet to the Church; I did not want to become a Devil.
Y: Instead you did all those naataks and became Busy. As GOD I know before you.
N: When shall I die? Who cares about living like this?
Y: Don't you remember:
"Bairagya sadhane mukti, sey aamar nai......"
Anyway, if you die now why are you unhappy?
N: I spent more than I should.
Y: What would happen if you spend less?
N: I would live longer.
Y: Then why are you unhappy?
Naatakbaj keeps mum, and thinks...
Y: What else? What did Hoover tell you?
N: You must be knowing.
Y: He thinks you could be American.
N: So are the French, and the the German and the Fascists. I do not have to live like a "commie".
Y: That's why I came.
N: Why?
Y: Don't have to live like a commie.
N: Meaning....?
Y; Why cann't you be Hindu? ........

EDITOR: ADDED
As my book "Ur Bangalore" becoming bigger in size, Not only Mr. Tirupathi, Yama is also peeping into. Yama is described as the Lord of Virtous Right, and the Lord of Death.
I do not know how a Yamer Aruchi kind of person could reach either Hell or Heaven.
Rest of the story you should read from the book.

VIDYASAGAR'S BETAL TRUMPS THE TRIUMPHANT YAMA
Betal: Dharmrajan, pray be heard.

Yama: Proceed.

Betal: So why not one supreme being, the Brahman filling the entire cosmos.... the emptiness of void filling all material reaching the entire cosmos, the vyome?
Yama: I see

Yama: Trick or treat, go ahead, make my day.

It is quite obvious that during decent conversation one uses context dependent and relation dependent phrases among peer groups, that avoid possible vulgar connotation, despite using slang.
This piece had been short listed for the book Yama Yawnimg (English).
