DivineSahajayoga Miracle (or as expected by Mother's

grace!!) story from Tsunami-hit Andaman & Nicobar – update on

Yogis & SY center there

 

Jai Shri Mataji !

 

It has been reported in various Indian media that the

Andaman & Nicobar group of islands of India had

suffered around 3000 deaths and little over double the

number were reported missing till yesterday (the

official death count is based on number of bodies

found – the bodies not found are declared missing!).

 

The leader of Andaman & Nicobar Mr. Manoranjan Saha is

based in the capital of the island group - Port Blair.

The gentleman is very-very simple, even by Indian

standards. He wears a dhoti-kurta (a dhoti is a wrap

around cloth, generally of cotton, that is still worn

by villagers in many states in India and regarded

unfashionable by modern Indians!). His sight is always

towards the Mother Earth or towards Shri Ma. He cannot

speak English (he acknowledges that he had learnt it

in college but cannot speak) but can converse in Hindi

with a Assamese or Bengali (east Indian languages)

accent that is difficult even for a hindi language

knower to understand. It was heard that he is made fun

of even amongst SY's in a center which I too was part

of but his surrender and dedication are what SY's like

me who are nowhere as deep as him should look up to

and learn.

 

He had presented miracle photographs that came out at

his center to SY's including me when I was based in a

city in South India. The photo had his contact number

at the back. The day before yesterday (4th Jan 05) it

was announced on the Indian Television that

telecommunications with Andaman & Nicobar group of

islands have been restored. On calling him up

yesterday morning he was very happy to receive a call

from a SY. He said that all 150 SY's in the group of

islands are safe by Mother's grace. The center is

intact too. (He runs the center from his house of

which he occupies a very small part & has dedicated

the rest of the house for the center. The center can

accommodate all 150 SY's there!). He informed that a

SY had a house at the jetty. The waves crossed the

jetty's wall but stopped at the wall of this house

(you may have seen in photographs of areas along the

coast in south-east Asia that all structures along the

coast were completely destroyed. This house is not).

He informed that the center was on a small hill and

intact.

 

On asking him whether he needed help in any way he

seemed very hesitant to ask. Here he was in a land

torn apart by Tsunamis and in one of the worst

affected places of India, being asked how he/ the

other SY's could be helped while he kept on talking

only Sahaja matters. He narrated how he had asked the

question at the South Indian Seminar last year of how

to remain in the Sahastrara longer & how he had

received beautiful answers from other SY's. His only

regret was that he had wished to donate some land and

build an old age home by Mother's grace but the water

level has now gone over his land (a number of islands

have gone under water completely or partly).

 

It was requested of him to check up with other SY's in

the group of islands and to inform if they needed any

help and it was thought that if he himself may have

needs, he may inform subsequently. A contact telephone

number was given to him but he said that it was not

possible to call outside from Andamans till that point

of time. He said that he had wanted to contact Mr.

Nalgirkar (India leader) to take permission for

performing a havan after the disaster but he could not

get through. He also said that he also did not wish to

call any SY in the mainland so that the person may not

wrongly construe it as a call for help.

 

Though he had been told that he will be called after a

day to check on help needed but I was worried how to

organize (any sum would be a pittance to people whom

I thought would have lost there everything) and then

how to send out the help (bank transfers may not be

working; even if a SY from South India is requested (I

have been brought to Pune by Mother's grace & am no

longer in South India) it would be difficult for him

to go there – and it was anyway too late by the time I

remembered that I had Mr. Saha's telephone number with

me! Also the telephone lines had just started working.

Yesterday I even thought that I will post this to a SY

e-mail group & word will spread. But then I was also

worried how people will talk to him because of his

language constraints mentioned earlier and even if

someone wants to send help the logistics barriers may

be insurmountable for now. The Indian government is

indeed doing a good job of giving help to its affected

people and also other affected nations but the

prevailing conditions are really very bad. All the

time I was thinking how this problem can be solved not

realizing that the divine itself takes care of all its

children.

 

Today, after trying to leave it to the divine and

giving myself a bandhan, Uncle Saha was called. It was

already afternoon – it had taken me that much time to

surrender and call! When asked whether he could find

out what help was required he again reassured that all

150 SY's in the island are safe and do not need

anything (though the overall situation is indeed grim

since the lowermost point of this group of islands is

just 60 nautical miles from the epicenter of the

earthquake in Indonesia). He said that by Mother's

grace he was pretty well off monetarily (though many

of his lands are under the water now). He also helped/

is helping other SY's in the islands monetarily. He

said that he is telling me about the help he has/is

providing only because I am sounding too concerned;

otherwise he prefers not to tell this. His only grief

now is that his desire to build the old-age home may

not happen or be stalled because of nature's fury.

What he said subsequently demonstrated the

establishment of Shri Mahalaxmi in him. He wants to

donate a huge sum for SY. He asked me that since I am

in Pune I should find out how he can give the money.

He had actually bought the money when he came to Pune

for Christmas Puja but was unable to meet the national

or the city leader because of the huge event (these

were the only means he seems to know through whom to

donate) and had to take the money back. What is

specially touching is that he still wants to give the

same amount in spite of the difficult condition he may

be facing.

 

More on the miracle – though in SY it is not a miracle

but known fact of Shri Mataji's protective powers. The

SY center in Port Blair had many photo-frames of Shri

Mataji. Though they fell down because of the

earthquake but not even a single one was broken! The

public address system too is intact. It had cost Mr.

Saha quite a sum to purchase this for public

programmes. The center had a couple of televisions and

mud pots of plants. (I can get the center photograph

with me scanned but don't know how to send to the

group without being blocked by because I see all

attachments removed in where I receive my divine

sahajayoga group e-mails except the ones kindly posted

by the Moderator whose url i.e. link is specified).

Everything of the center is intact. Most others

buildings around are destroyed and people are saying

that this building remaining and that too with its

contents intact is a miracle.

 

Many people are leaving the islands because of fear of

inundation of the land and bad conditions there. He

says that because of Shri Mataji he does not have any

fear and wants to remain there to carry on Sahaja

work. A true leader, isn't he?

 

Jai Shri Mataji !

P.S.

 

1. Mr. Manoranjan Saha's telephone no is 03192-235031.

It may have to be dialed +91-03192-235031 from other

than India. He may not understand non-hindi speaking

SY's but will definitely understand Jai Shri Mataji

(Your talk may be limited to that only !!)

 

The telephone of Andaman & Nicobar centre if any SY

wishes to dial from a country other than India would

be +91-3192-235031. The hyphens(dashes in the number)

are to be ignored i.e. like 00913192235031.

 

 

2. Just got a phone call from a SY in Chennai in South

India –of course all are safe there as well - JSMJ !
