As my eyes opened wide in shock and my smile turned to dismay at his behavior, I yelled out to him..."Jesse, stop it! What is the matter with you? You don't hit like that. Why did you hit him?" I was completely puzzled by what he had done, and was ashamed that my son would strike Sri Ramana. He turned and looked at me, surprise in his own face, mixed with a child's indignation..."But, Mommy, he punched me," he said, his own eyes open wide. I could not believe what I was hearing, yet at this point, so many strange things had happened in my life that I believed him. Still, I took on a certain questioning attitude towards him. "He punched you? What do you mean he punched you? Where did he punch you?" He looked at me solemn as could be, pointed to the space on his forehead between his eyebrows and said..."Right here, Mommy." he still had his own little look of shock on his face and still had that attitude as if he had every right to defend himself< This is the kind of thing that I question, for the little boy was angry and defensive, which indicates a foreign thought in his mind. Perhaps subconsciously planted by the mother or by a spirit. Questionable anyway. For Ramana as a person doesn't exist---it was only a body. Ramana suggest that using pictures of dead gurus is just for concentration that's all........ONS...Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
