The Miracle Of Purun Bhagat Character Analysis

Improved Essays
Register to read the introduction… Every detail told you about him. It showed you more than if you just read it. The setting showed his personality instead of talked about it because actions are stronger than words. Anyone can say anything about themselves being a good person but it does not mean anything if you do not act like a good person through your actions. I believe that no one that had the wealth and position of Purun Dass would ever give that up to become someone of the lowest class. Bhagat gave up everything he knew to live poor just so he could see what his people believed was good. He was young when he made this decision and not many young adults would realize the importance of what he did. Purun Bhagat was strong, brave, wise, and selfless. His personality is one of very few in this world and reading this story makes me strive to be like him. He gave his life to help a whole village of strangers. He gave up being the highest one could ever be just so he could understand what his people believed to be good. Purun Bhagat left the world with more importance than when he entered

    Identity: noun, the fact of being who or what a person or thing is and the characteristics determining this. The definition of identity is as stated above, but what specific characteristics determine who a person is? People often believe that identity is influenced by one’s physical features and outward appearance.
