Kim by Rudyard Kipling in hindi

In today's video, we are going to read one of Rudyard Kipling's most important novels, whose name is Kim. In this video, along with telling you the story of this novel, at the end of the video, I will also tell you why this novel was written. And what was the condition at that time when this novel was written. Let's start. See you at the end of this video. This is the story of a child named Kimbal O'Hara, who was born in Lahore, which was a part of Punjab at that time, but is now in Pakistan. Now, Kim was born here, but he is an Englishman, a Britisher, a child of an Englishman. But he plays with Pakistani children, speaks in Urdu. Overall, he is happy being a Pakistani. His mother was a nursemaid. His father was a low-ranking officer in the Irish regiment in India. But his father had a very bad luck. Afim's. Kim's elders ate him up. They passed away. And Kim became an orphan. I don't know how he lived his life. And the woman who was raising Kim, she wanted Kim to wear European clothes. If she is a European, she should live like a European. But Kim insisted that I have to live like other children, like Pakistani children. Kim was very happy with his friends. Then one day, while playing, he reached a local museum in Lahore with his friends, whose name was Wonder House. There he met a man, who was a Lama. He told him that I am a Buddhist Lama. I have come from Tibet. And I have just left for my pilgrimage. Kim took him to the owner of the museum. He told the owner of the museum that I have to go to four holy sites of Buddhism. I have seen different types of people on the way, worshipping Lord Buddha. Actually, they don't worship, they cheat. They have made fake statues. I have set out for a purpose. There is a river, River of Arrows. My purpose will be fulfilled there. I will attain salvation. I will be free from the cycle of life and death. That's why I am going towards Banaras. So he got food to eat. He filled his bag and started going. Kim had been to every street of Lahore. She asked people to give her food. And she gave it to this Lama. And finally, what was in his mind, he put it in front of her that make me your disciple. I want to walk with you. Make me your disciple. Lama agreed. And they started walking together in Banaras. Now because Kim was an orphan, there was no one to stop him. So he went with Lama. And he brought Lama to his friend Mehboob Ali. So that they can spend the night. Mehboob Ali said, Brother, you are going to Banaras. So there will be Ambala city on the way. Give me a message to an army officer there. He said something like a code. He gave the message. Mehboob Ali thought that he is a kid. On top of that, Lama is with him. So no one will doubt him. No one will catch him. Friends, let me tell you, Mehboob Ali has a lot of problems. So it was good that Kim left with Lama early in the night. And they both reached the railway station. Kim started buying two tickets for himself and Lama. So the ticket seller tried to rob him. But Kim was very smart. He bought a ticket for Ambala and a ticket for Amritsar. Lama was very scared. Because he had never come to the railway station before. He was scared of the noise here. And he had never traveled in any train. And the train was also full of people. There were Sikhs, Jats and a banker in this train. The train was full. And they were talking to each other. Because no one is quiet in the train. Then the train reached Amritsar. The ticket was checked there. The ticket checker came. He kept the Amritsar ticket with him. And gave the Ambala ticket to Lama. Ambala was ahead and Amritsar had reached. The ticket checker checked Kim's ticket. When he checked the ticket, he told him to get down. He didn't want to get down. He wanted to go ahead. So the ticket checker told him to get down. Now people were kind to Kim there. And they gave Kim both money and food. And he started his journey ahead. I told you that he is smart. He started his journey ahead with Lama. Now this Lama told everyone about Buddhism in the train. The passengers didn't know anything about Buddhism. About the beliefs. So they thought he was mad. While travelling in the train, this Lama was scared. Because the train was moving very fast. And many rivers passed from below. He thought that this was not his river. River of Arrows. On which he will attain salvation. Now a farmer's wife was also sitting in the train. She was very impressed with Lama's words. She said that my house is in Ambala. So you both come to my house and stay. Offered to Kim and Lama. Now Kim and Lama reached the farmer's house. As soon as Kim reached Ambala. Like a James Bond. He threw the message of Mahabhagwali to that Englishman. That Englishman gave him money in return. And the meaning of the message was. That he has to send his forces to the North. Kim didn't take much time to understand. That the message given by Mahabhagwali. It was not a small message. It was a serious news. Maybe there is going to be a fight. Anyway, while staying in the farmer's house. Kim and Lama met a Hindu priest. That priest believed in Lama's beliefs. He was very impressed. And Kim is very smart. I had told you. If anyone bothered Lama on the way. He used to say that he is a pure soul. And if you bother a pure soul. You will go to hell. So no one teases Lama. If a snake is seen on the way. Kim goes to kill it. Lama says don't kill it. Let it live its life. Kim didn't know why. But he used to like Lama's words. Maybe that's why he was with him. Lama used to check every river. Whether it is a river of arrow. Where he will get salvation. They stopped at many places on the way. And Kim told his stories. About Lahore. The next day a soldier came to them. Kim and Lama. An old soldier. He told them about GT road. That this is GT road. It goes straight to Banaras. They reached GT road. On that big road. They saw a man. Killing his horse. Lama felt pity on the horse. He started to walk the horse. The soldier started to shout. Why are you killing the poor horse. After this. Kim and Lama started their journey. While walking on GT road. They talked a lot. Saw many things on the way. Many people offered food to Lama and Kim. And said come with us. Overall. Kim was enjoying the journey with Lama. While walking. They reached a place. There they saw a flag. Kim was very excited to see the flag. When he went near the flag. He met an Anglican minister. He met many other officers in the regiment camp. At first. The Anglican minister thought Kim is a thief. But then he saw. A small pouch was hanging on Kim's neck. When he opened the pouch. There were some documents in it. And those documents were of Kim's father. I told you about Kim's father. He was in the army. And these people assumed. That he is a British kid. Because he is a British kid. He should not wander like a beggar. He should get a good education. Lama did not believe. That he was with a British kid. Because this kid was speaking Urdu. He was looking like a desi. Lama also thought. That this kid should get a good education. Because he is a British kid. And at this moment. Kim and Lama had to separate. This moment was very painful. When Kim and Lama had to separate. Because they were very attached to each other. Now because Kim is a British kid. They decided. That Kim will be taught in this school. Maybe he will also be trained to become a soldier. But Kim did not want to become a soldier. He was bathed. He was given good clothes. And Kim's strength increased. Meanwhile, Kim stayed there. And made a prediction. That very soon there will be a war. Get ready to fight. And coincidentally the next day. He got a letter. That there will be a war. Many people were impressed. By Kim's prediction. And some were totally fascinated. Now those people. Started going towards North. And left Kim with women and children. Then a teacher. Put Kim in the school. He did not like it at all. Now the Lama who had separated from him. He was sending money for his education. Every month. He was getting bored in the school. He did not know how to read. There was a sweeper in the school. There was a sweeper who worked in the school. He told him in Urdu. That there is someone here. Who can write a letter for me. The sweeper was surprised. How can an English child speak Urdu. Finally he asked the letter writer. To write a letter to Mahabubali. And in this letter. Kim told Mahabubali. Then he requested Mahabubali. Please save me from here. Rescue me. Kim was worried about the Lama. How will he live alone. Who will ask for his food. I do not like this school at all. I want to get out of here. He wrote a letter to Mahabubali. Mahabubali came to Kim. But he did not get him out of here. He started teaching him. That this school is good for you. Things are looking bad for you. Soon things will get better. Mahabubali gave him some money. And left. It was decided that this Kim. Will be put in the best school in Lucknow. The best school in India. In St. Javier. This is a fictional school. The biggest school in India. So this was a good thing. Because Lucknow is closer to Benaras. So he could meet the Lama. So Kim agreed. To go to that big school in Lucknow. Even though he knew. That the experience there would be bad. But still he was excited to meet the Lama. After reaching Lucknow. He tried to meet the Lama. But he did not find him anywhere. He was upset. But this was a new city. So he was excited. Kim's driver took him around the city. With a buggy. And finally the Lama came to meet him. He went to the new school. The Lama was in Benaras. The Lama told him that he was in Benaras. And was reading some sacred manuscripts of Benaras. So that the river of arrow. Which he was looking for. He could find it. The Lama told him that it was time for him to leave. So Kim told him to take him with him. The Lama promised him. That he would meet him soon. Kim thought that he would be alone. Like Saint Javier. He has no family here. But this did not happen. His experience was very good. Because the school was very familiar. Many students were like him. But yes. When summer holidays came. He started to get bored. Because the rest of the kids went back to their homes. But Kim did not have a home. He stayed in Saint Javier. Now he found a prostitute. A prostitute. She helped him to change his appearance. Let me tell you. She is very good at changing her appearance. So he changed his appearance. And was successful in running away from Saint Javier. Now this news spread all over. That Kim ran away from Saint Javier. Everyone was worried. Where did Kim go? Kim wrote a letter. He told them that he will come back. He needed some rest. That's why he ran away. But a few months later. Kim met Mehboob Ali on the street. Begging. Mehboob Ali wanted to know. When Kim ran away from Saint Javier. What happened to him. That he has to beg here. Now Kim met Mehboob Ali on the street. Begging. He asked Kim what happened to you. When you ran away from Saint Javier. He told him everything. Now both Kim and Mehboob Ali. Understood. Why the British. Should give education to Kim. Why they are giving education to Kim. In return they want something from Kim. They wanted Kim. To get him a job in the army. And he should work as a spy for them. Kim was also ready. For that job. That I will study in Saint Javier. And I will get that job. Now in this kid. Kim has a lot of talent. And he is capable. Then he went to Shimla with Mehboob Ali. He did a lot of good work for the army. He was spending his summers in Shimla. There. While living in Shimla. Kim was taught a lot of spying skills. But in Kim. These things were natural. He could do spying very naturally. And while living in Shimla. Mehboob Ali and Kim's friendship. Became more and more deep. His formal education was going on. In Saint Javier. And slowly Kim became. What the British wanted from him. A spy. An agent of the British Indian Secret Service. Kim. Such an agent. That he even changed his appearance. And let me tell you. He had this talent. When people used to talk to him. They could not recognize him. That he is a British kid. He used to speak Urdu. And. He could speak any language. He could change his appearance. And till the age of 17. He was with these people. When he grew up. He was given the freedom. To do whatever he wanted. To see real India. To travel. Then Mehboob Ali said. Don't go alone. Go to your old friend in Banaras. Do you remember? Lama. Now Kim was not a kid. Who used to be. He was an agent of the secret service. But still. He still had a place in his heart for Lama. When he was learning to spy. Lama was wandering in the streets of Banaras. Lama. Had gone to all the Hori Buddhism sites. Had gone around. But till now. He had not found the river of arrow. Lama had also understood. That without Kim's help. He cannot find the river of arrow. When Lama came to know. That Kim's education is over. His training is over. He was very excited. To meet his old friend Kim. And to go back in search of the river. And finally he met Kim. And they went back. In search of the river. They were searching for the river. That Kim gets information from his friend. That in the north. Some kings. With the British government. Have planned to betray. So his friend. And Kim thought. That we will go to the north. But Lama said. I will find my river of arrow. I don't want to go anywhere. I just want my river of arrow. So he said. He suggested to Lama. Let's go to the north. You have already gone to the south. Let's go to the north. Maybe you will find the river there. So Lama went to the north. In search of the river of arrow. While Kim and his friend. His name is Babu. They went to the Himalayas. To catch those agents. On the way. They met two Russian agents. In their luggage. They got some letters. In the letters. They were talking about betrayal. In other words. In the luggage of those two agents. Kim was. A secret service agent. Kim got a jackpot. After this. Kim and Lama went to the south. In search of the river. They didn't find the river. While walking. Lama got sick. Kim took care of him. To get well. He took him to a house. When he got well. Kim got sick. On the way. He also took care of Lama. He was carrying a letter box. When he rested. He slept for 36 hours. He was so tired. When he woke up. There were Russian agents papers under his bed. The first question he asked. Where is Lama? The lady who was serving him. She said Lama is fine. The woman said. Treat me like your mother. Kim's mother had passed away. If a woman said. Treat me like your mother. He felt emotional. The Russian agents papers. They were not there. Where did they go? Kim's companion. Babu. Delivered it to the officers. To the officers of the British government. Now the British government. Will get a lot of help from those papers. Along with this. Lama also got his river of arrow. Here. Which he was looking for. After bathing in the river. Lama got his enlightenment. The woman congratulated him. But. At the end of the novel. What happened to Kim? In this novel. There was a problem with him. Identity crisis. He had identity crisis. Who am I?
