Brindavan News

[Guest guest]

 

Hello dear Brothers and sisters,

 

Sairam to each one of you.

 

It has been great doing Seva at Brindavan.  Since I was returning late for the

last few days it was not possible for me to send this mail earlier.

 

For the first time in my life I met a Professor, who lost his eye sight twice

and got it back due to the love of our dear Bhagwan.

 

Is it possible that you get Sulphuric Acid blasted right into your eyes and

face, and not have a 'mm' scar on your face? Well I learnt everything is

possible when you are dear to Bhagwan. And we are all dear to Bhagwan. Only our

love for HIM is always in variation. Sometimes it is 100 % and sometimes it is

less than that, due to the Maya effect.

 

Next year if you come to Bangalore to visit Swami, come and meet me and I will

introduce you to the professor.

 

On both the occassions, concentrated acid went into the face and the eyes and it

was declared that he would not get his eyesight, since his cornea was eaten up

totally. But Swami with all His Compassion, made him OK just with Vibhuthi.  He

cautioned him about the second accident, and told him to wear glasses before

experiments in the Chemistry Lab,  but he did not pay much heed.

 

How Swami saved him is not just a miracle. It is unbelievable when you look at

him in person.  We all read about acid accident victims.  Is such a recovery

possible as has been the case with the professor ? And in days ?

 

We have celebrated a whole lot of festivals during Swami's presence here.

The Karnataka New Year Day, the Tamil New Year Day, the Kerala New year day and

so on.  Each festival has been grandier than the previous one. One lift of a

hand from Swami, there is absolute pin drop silence.  It is great to hear the

international group of ladies singing bhajans. What perfection ! What a mastery

over something that is so new to them ? Hats off to my dear international

sisters ! One can see that Bhagwan's grace is with them.

 

One can write enough books on people behaviour when people visit Swami for a

darshan or as a devoteee.  There are the Chapal devotees.  So much they

concentrate on protecting their chapals, that I have personally seen them

locking the chapal(footwear) with a chain and lock.  There are young girls, who

leave one footwear in one location and the second one, far away at a different

location.  There are devotees, who hide them inside their seat cushions.  And

ofcourse there are others who neatly pack their footwear in a plastic bag and

hide the plastic bag. And there are many more such variations.

 

I lost of 3 pairs of footwear during the 2 months period. I have no complaints.

Having come to Swami I am happy that my footwear is also doing seva (service)!

God has granted His grace for that footwear also !  Finally it is all a way of

looking at things. I wonder how many of you agree?

 

I am a personal witness to people arriving right into the open doorstep of God,

and going away without even asking a curiosity question about God? Their only

queries are a) Is there a canteen ? b) When will it open ? c) How much does it

cost ? d) Is the cost for one meal or both meal ? e) Do you get free

accommodation or not ? When you finally make a polite enquiry as to how they

landed up there, their honest answer is "well, I came to know that some baba is

here, so we thought we will look up the place". And they do go away without a

single enquiry on Swami.  They don't wait for a darshan ! Now we all can

realise the truth when Swami says often that without his call, no one can visit

Him.

 

Then I see the plight of the specially previleged.  People who manage to obtain

special seats for seeing Swami close. I was always anti them, and at one point

in time, thought our Swami was not equal in distribution is grace. But so much

I have now seen, that I understand what is Prarabda, what is Karma, and what is

destiny !

 

Few days ago, someone was given permission for a seating in VIP area, but that

was the only day in my entire 70 days of service at Bangalore, that I saw Swami

not going anywhere near the VIP enclosure.

 

I saw a lady with a 4 year child (child cannot speak) obtain a special seating

to get the child blessed.  But minutes before Swami arrived, the Child started

screaming and had to be removed from the VIP enclosure right until after the

darshan was over ! I therefore remember Swami's words, "place trust in yourself

and place your full unconditional faith in me". Ask no middle men to help you

for anything divine, just pray to ME and ME alone.  Without this surrender, a

devotee cannot fully receive Swami's blessings.

 

Hopefully the monsoon would arrive soon at Bangalore and bring relief to people

here. It has been awfully hot.

Talks are already going on that Swami may leave for Puttaparthy after the 1st

week of June.  One has to ring up to

91-80-8452233 or 8453672 and confirm before making arrival at Bangalore after

the first week, so that they are not disappointed.

 

With this I end.  Hope most of you who sought a free email ID, have received the

same and are happy with its functioning. Those who need a free email ID with POP

and SMTP facility may please send me a mail, with your user id desired.

 

With sai regards, and Sai love

 

KKV  Yasas

 

PS:  How many of you have seen the enclosed picture ? Another miracle !  If this

picture is from your house, I request that devotee to tell us all about it.

Nectar flows from Swami's foot !
