Parthi Update, October 8, 2004

 

Sairam. This morning our cricket hero Sachin Tendulkar had come to

have Swami's Darshan. Bhagawan was on His way during Darshan, when

Mr. C. Srinivas ushered in three gentlemen; one was Mr. Prasanna,

the second Mr. Sachin Tendulkar and third unknown - into the

portico. They were seated right in front. Swami's golf cart came

beside the interview room. Swami smiled at Sachin and spoke a few

words.

 

However, the golf cart continued. Bhagawan got down at the other end

of the portico. He spent some time speaking to some VIP's over there

and then moved towards the sofa. From there, He came back towards

the interview room. He called the three gentlemen inside.

 

Later they left Parthi. Hardly anybody came to know about their

arrival and exit. By the time we went in the evening, none of them

were there. This evening, the Mudenahalli students were ready with a

music programme. Swami called our Warden and asked him to bring the

Mudenahalli boys in front.

 

A group of singers came forward and sat right in front of Swami,

across the grill. They sang a number of songs - Telugu, Hindi and

obviously Kannada. Swami was enjoying the songs throughout, keeping

beat with His hand. Towards the end, He asked them to sing songs in

particular languages. He said 'Kannada' and they sang in Kannada.

Then He asked for Hindi, but they had no stock left. So they

continued in Telugu.

 

The programme concluded by 4.30 p.m. Then Swami spent almost 20

minutes talking to them. All the tiny toddlers surrounded Swami. He

asked each one of them what they were doing. One boy got a ring! The

rest of the Mudenahalli students who were sitting near the car

garage were straining their necks to catch a glimpse of the

wonderful chance their brothers were getting!

 

Swami distributed some colourful books (on Swami) to the boys. Then

Prasadam (Laddu) was distributed to all the boys. Again, Swami spent

some time talking to the boys in Kannada. By now it was 4.50 p.m. He

gave them group photographs and then asked them to sing Bhajans.

 

The young one's started singing Bhajans. After two Bhajans, Swami

smiled and got up. As He slowly walked towards the centre of the

dais, they finished the third Bhajan. Swami took Aarti and got into

the golf cart.

 

By 5.00 p.m. we all were busy moving out of the Kulwant Hall!

 

We could see the Mudenehalli boys very excited and full of joy and

ecstasy.

 

Earlier the scene of their crowding around Swami appeared to us like

bees hovering around the rose trying to drink the nectar. From front

view, we could see all black heads like bees buzzing along the brass

grill and in the midst was Swami's beautiful smiling face like the

rose overflowing with Divine Nectar!!

 

No doubt they were so full of joy!

 

Sairam
