Guest guest Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 Om Namoh Narayanaya. My Pranaams to all devotees on this Ekadasi evening. Thanks so much, ShriKrishna Dasa Rajeev Ji,for sharing this precious experience with us. I hope that Sri Shankaran Ji will also share his story with us. Hearing about the Glories of the Leela of our Bhagwan is amrit to all our hearts. Binu Ji has been very generous with his experience and reading his stories/experiences have brought great joy to many of us.Please do share, everyone......... Sri Bhagwaan Uwaach: Maccittaa madgatapraanaa bodhayanta parasparam Kathayantasca maam nityam tusyanti ca ramanti ca. With their mind fixed on Me, with their life absorbed in Me, enlightening each other and ever speaking of Me, they are contented and delighted.10.9 Sometimes as adults we feel restrained to tell about our Bhakti experiences. Some may want to hug what happened to them as it may seem too private. Not many know each other here-- some may never even meet one another but when you tell about His Grace and Mercy, you can make the difference to another who may be battling the same situation that you were in and reading about your experience may be the lifeline that they need. When we hesitate to share --thinking that we are so special that He helped/rescued us---we forget that in helping us---we are supposed to help others too. One devotee went through a heart rending, gut wrenching,terrifying experience in her life. At first when it happened, she could not comprehend why this could happen to someone devoted to Bhagwan, someone who loved and adored Him. She suffered terribly, went through all the stages--numbness, denial,anger, hurt. But she held onto her love for Him though and immersed herself into Bhagwad Gita and Sahastranaam. Right through her ordeal, Bhagwan started sending His messengers to comfort and guide her.At first, she didnt realise it but after one fellow explained how he recieved a message while mediating that he must convey to her and he crossed two rivers and came to deliver the message--she got the message! She started healing and today if you should meet this devotee you would never knew what she just went through. The Glow of Prema/Bhakti shines in her face.At last she came to the realisation, Bhagwan choose her as the instrument to do a specific task. Had she not gone through her terrible experience, while she would sympathise--she would never empathise with devotees who are suffering. She had to experience the same kind of suffering in order to be able to help others.Many may ask, why does Bhagwan have to use a devotee to do His work when He can. He is so gracious--He gives us the opportunity to "lift" ourselves up all the time--accumulate good karmas. Little Pushpa fell through the window and had no injuries. She hurt her arm badly while playing just a few days ago---she was in great pain before she went to sleep. The next morning, as soon as she opened her eyes, her father asked if she was in pain still. Pushpa promptly replied----Krishna took care of my hand--I have no pain. Coming from a child who is 2 years old, just blows us adults away. A baby can have steadfast confidence in Him--do we as adults? Sri Krsna Sharanam Mama. Sri Vishnu Naam Bhajle. In His Service, Nandrani "Non-cooperation with evil is a sacred duty." M.K.
