Guest guest Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 This second form of sadhana coupled with individual study, meditation and prayer will form a powerful means of not only unfolding our own divine potential, but also of social uplift through the much needed spiritual education. Mr. Gopalareddy, a native of the neighbouring village of Kothapalem, records his experience: “Our baby ‘Malli’ on the 14th day after her birth was being brought home from the maternity hospital at Nellore. I was handing over the baby from the railway platform (at Nellore station) to my wife who had boarded the train. Unfortunately the baby slipped from the rubber sheat in my hands and fell down between the train and the platform. It did not cry. We could not make out where it was badly hit. The baby was disabled. Her hands and legs became useless. The doctors tried their best but could only save its life. The disabled limbs remained so. The baby did not grow up well but remained thin. She could not walk, but dragged her legs along as she moved on her buttocks. Even at the age of four the girl could not speak. We were heart-broken at her condition, and we were helpless. We left everything to God’s will. After quite some time we happened to hear of Sri Bharadwaja through my nephew Vijayakumar (who was a student of the college in which Sri Bharadwaja was working). We wanted to see him but the time had not come for us yet. Atlast, by Baba’s grace, he visited our house. We put the sad plight of our four-year-old daughter before him. He glanced at her benignly, passed his hands over her limbs and said that by Baba’s grace the child would recover. He then gave the girl the sweet that he had offered to Baba’s picture. To our surprise the girl started walking from the next day; now she can run, and climb the staircase. She has gained her speech. Now she sings Baba’s bhajan. By Baba’s grace, both of us – my wife and I have improved much, materially and spiritually”. Source: http://www.saibharadwaja.org Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
