A story about Nityananda from "Sky of the Heart, Jewels of Wisdom

from Nityananda", Rudra Press....but first, find out who he is at

http://www.nityanandainstitute.org/nit.htm

 

page 162 [1929]. After a long wait, Nityananda appeared and entered

the old gate, walking briskly. The family hurried after him, but he

had disappeared completely and so they returned to the entrance. It

was early spring and the mangoes were still ripening on the trees.

Some local boys began to throw stones at the tender young fruit when

Nityananda reappeared and he called to the boys to stop. They

immediately changed their target and began hurling stones at the

Bhagavan. but before anyone could react, a strange sight met their

eyes: each stone that touched Nityananda fell down as a sweet. More

stones were thrown and more sweets fell. Without a word, Nityananda

waled away and disappeared again into the jungle. The boys were busy

collecting sweets. The devotee and his family resumed their journey

to the other ashram. They had seen how a saint behaves: giving

sweets for stones."
