The object of his attention was the huge community board where several notices, flyers and posters were pinned. He was looking at one particular flyer pasted there. In bold letters, it said: WHO ARE WE? WHERE ARE WE GOING? WHAT HAPPENS AFTER DEATH? COME SOLVE THE MYSTERIES OF LIFE AND DEATH WITH DR. SINGH. GET SCIENTIFIC EXPLANATIONS AND REASONABLE ANSWERS SIGN UP FOR OUR 10 DAY CLASS AND RETREAT TODAY! 2) “Eligibility test!” exclaimed Richard. “Yes, sir. You will have to qualify before you can attend this retreat,” said Henry. “Not everyone who applies is accepted.” “Why is that?” asked Richard. “Because we want to make sure that we do not waste our time, sir,” replied Henry. “Only serious parties will be entertained.” “Alright,” said Richard. “When do I come for the test?” “Thursday morning, at 10 O’clock,” said Henry. Then he gave him his address. Richard hung up the phone. “Hmmm. An eligibility test. This is going to be extremely interesting,” he thought. At 10 O’clock sharp the next morning, Richard was seated in a hall full of people. Each person was given a questionnaire and the test was over in just five minutes. There were only two questions for everyone to answer: Question 1 : On a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being the lowest and 10 the highest, how greatly do you rate your desire to know what happens after death? And... Question 2 : How much can you pay to know the answer to the question : what happens after death? For the first question, Richard had no problem at all in circling the number 10. And for the second question, he said to himself, “This is a million dollar question. What would I give to know the answer?” And he put in the amount of one million dollars. The papers were collected and those who had answered “10” for the first question were asked to step forward. Out of fifty people, only nineteen had answered “10”. “The rest of you can leave now,” said Henry to the people who had not qualified. After they had gone, Henry turned to the nineteen candidates. “Congratulations,” said Henry with a big smile. “You qualify for this retreat. You are most welcome to join our camp. But first, I thought I might inform you that your stay at the retreat isn’t going to be exactly comfortable. You shall wear simple clothes, eat simple food and sleep on the floor. Dr. Singh has organized this retreat at a remote island. So you’ll be totally cut off from the rest of the world for ten whole days. Once you join, no complaints will be tolerated. Also, this retreat will cost you some money. It’s not for free. Therefore, please think carefully before you join.” “Ah!” thought Marie Marchessaux, instantly deciding to join. “This sounds like an adventure I simply can’t afford to miss! A remote island! How exciting!” Jim Garrison, a poor, struggling lad in his teens also decided to join. “Ten days away from everyone will do me a lot of good,” he said to himself. Richard was not so sure. “I’m so used to living a comfortable life,” he thought. “Will I be able to stay at the retreat for ten days? It’s going to be extremely hard!” Unlike Richard, a girl by the name of Amy Smith had no hesitation at all in making her decision. “It doesn’t bother me that I will have to sleep on the floor and eat simple food,” she said to Henry. “I would do anything to find out what happens after death. In fact, I think it’s going to be a lot of fun!”
