Guest guest Posted April 11, 2003 Report Share Posted April 11, 2003 om namo bhagavate sri ramanaya Today (April 11, 2003) is 'Sri Ramanavami' and as we celebrate the birthday of Sri Rama it would be nice to recall the incident narrated by one of Bhagavan's very blessed and humble devotee, Sri T K Sundaresa Iyer, in the book "At The Feet of Bhagavan" (Ashram publication). It is titled as Ramana Gives Rama-Darshan" (Excerpts) In May 1933, on my 36th birthday .... I addressed a prayer in tamil viruttam style to Sri Bhagvan "Oh Bhagavan, I have completed three and half decades and yet not have had the experience of real you. Pray let me have this day the touch of your Grace." handling over the slip i prostrated before Him. Bhagavan bade me sit down and gazed steadily at me: All of a sudden I lost body-consciousness and was absorbed in Sri Maharshi. I was turned inwards and the voice of Bhagavan bade me see whatever I desired, I felt that if I could have the darshan of Sri Rama my life would have been fruitful, as I was devoted to Sri Rama. I had then immediately the darshan of Sri Rama with Sita, Lakshmana, Bharata, Satrughna and Hanuman. ..... Bhagavan asked me to fetch the book Dakshinamurthi Ashtottara ... He gave to me to read. The fifth name from the last read Om Sri Yoga Pattabhiramaya Namah. Bhagavan then said: Sri Rama is Dakshinamurthi and Dakshinamurthi is Sri Rama. Will post a more detailed version of this episode later today/tomorrw. om dayArNavAya namah Om sri gurave namah suri Catch all the cricket action.
