HI all,
A year ago, I had been to Thirupati. I brought back a few statues of lord Venkateshwara. While unpacking, I accidentally dropped a statue(made of clay). In an effort to save the statue from hitting the ground and breaking into pieces, I caught it with my foot. It happened in a split second but seemed like an unusually long time. Time stood still. I was in a dilemma whether to catch it with my foot or let it fall down and break. The story of Maharishi Bhrigu also flashed in front of my eyes... I took a call and caught the statue safely with my foot. Most people would still call it a kick. Now, can you please advice ... Was this a kick? Did I insult Venkateshwara and lakshmi? How can I escape from their wrath and bring them shanti?
