He intends to throw himself down. To discourage those around, acquaintances beg, but in vain. "Life has no meaning, I'll throw myself down and put an end to this nonsense," he says. Finally, they call Osman Dede, who they think will honor the young man from the town. Ummdir Osman Dedetek knows farming. He has no special education. As soon as it arrives, "Jump if you want!" says the boy. "But first give justice to those who have a right to you!" He asks the surprised young man for one of his shoes. "Remember, who contributed to the shoes you walked up to here? Who dug the road for you before you did? What animal's skin did you wear under your feet? Can you calculate how many lives it cost while you were alive?" At one point he tugs at the boy's shirt. "Don't you have anything to say to the people who picked the cotton of this shirt, before jumping in with the people who spun the cotton and wove it to make a T-shirt for you?" "Wouldn't you consider thanking those who planted the wheat of the bread you've eaten so far under the heat and those who cooked it carefully?" The transparent bonds shown by Osman Dede hold the young man so tightly that he voluntarily returns to life from the abyss. And I say you are not at the top of the cliff, but you are missing life on the high hills of comfort. You are killing life by living it. "I am enough for me!" Then you roughly break the warm ties that hug you and throw them into the abyss. If Osman Dede comes to visit you tonight, don't worry, show him the Naikan in your hand.
