The Falling Stones of Choshkong (Raja’s Water Channel)

Description

The fourth tale is about the royal family of Shigar and a stream called Choshkong (Raja Sahib's Water Channel). When a member of Raja Sahib's family, especially a man, passed away, stones fell from above into this water channel. This tradition has been famous for a long time. The last elder in our royal family was Raja Muhammad Ali Shah Sahib, who passed away three years ago. On the evening he died, and the next morning, when I reached my house's steps for the funeral prayers, two stones fell. I heard the sound of falling stones and when I reached the door, stones fell again. I could see stones falling and dust rising. Whether you call it a myth or reality, this event is well-known among the people here.
