Guest guest Posted May 25, 2005 Report Share Posted May 25, 2005 Dearest Sai Brothers, OM SAI RAM. May Bhagawan's Grace be with each and everyone of you. Many of the people have a notion when Seeing Bhagawan at the present in Brindavan and at the pictures coming out that Bhagawan is injured and suffering at the Physical level. Bhagawan never suffers, he only suffers for others, for his people, for his Devotees, it is just that we look at Bhagawan from a very human point of view, he looks at us from his all compassing Divinity. On the most wonderful and holiest day of Shri Rama Navami in 1964, Bhagawan was with the Raja of Venkatagiri, On that day Bhagawan wanted to take everyone i.e., around a 100 people along with the Raja to the sands near the huge Temple of Lord Sri Rama . That wonderful and pleasant evening was an evening that everyone present there would never ever forget. Swami asked at least 10 people as to what his/her Presiding deities were, and Swami created from the Sands pulling out the Wonderful Golden and Silver Statues of Rama, Dattatreya, Padmanaba,Venkateswara,Jagannatha, Krishna and statues of Sita Rama Kalyanam. That was a magical experience for everyone, ( I will incidentally try to get the Photos of those statues created by Bhagawan from my friend who is also a r of this website ). Bhagawan then wanted everyone to go to the huge Rama temple to offer Prayers, there is a tradition which was seldom followed there that no one should wear any footwear to around 100 metres of the temple Premises, Everyone proceeded to the Temple with Footwear, Bhagawan silently refused his footwear, nobody noticed, the path was filled with huge throny shrubs and weeds, as Bhagawan entered the Temple and as he put his foot inside the "Simhadwaram", everyone was shocked to see Bhagawan's Blood on the temple pathway, the Raja asked Bhagawan as to what had happened, Bhagawan just told him to carry on, There were around 30 people with Bhagawan at that time and everyone saw with great shock, the footprints of Blood from Bhagawan's Both Feet, Bhagawan did not utter a word, then as he was about to enter the sanctom Sanctorium, Bhagawan asked for a glass of water, Bhagawan drank the water and went inside and created a wonderful pearl necklace for the Lord, which he adorns even today, then as Bhagawan came out everybody was shocked to see that there were no Blood stains of Bhagawan which everyone had seen only a few minutes ago, Bhagawan then showed his Foot and it was clean, not even a single trace of any Blood, it was as white as Silver, Bhagawan then said " I wanted to show to you that to reach God, all of you have to undergo Karma's and suferings, why did the great one's who built this temple insist that No ffotwear be worn after a particular distance so that you understand the meaning of agony, suffering that great devotees have indergone for the Lord and the Lord had undergone for his Devotees. I underwent this suffering to show you what It takes to reach the Lord". Even till today to this Day, the Great message that Bhagawan had given that Day is followed and no one comes with any footwear till the very place that Bhagawan started his walk to the Temple. Who are we to judge Bhagawan's Ways ?, Who are we to question his ways ?, It is only apt to say that whatever Bhagawan does has a message for everyone, every act that he performs has a meaning for everyone for us, Do not question the Act, only understand the Meaning.

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2005 Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 Dear Mahadevan The story narrated by you about the Leela of Swami is so fascinating,mind boggling and thrilling.As you hv correctly pointed out we are no judges of the Mahima of Swami at any point of time and in our ignorance we think so many things abt Him.Who can understand Swami unless one is attuned to HIS Cosmic Mind.May the Lord ever protect us from all downfalls and lead us in the correct path.Thanks for posting such a nice piece of the leela of Swami.
