Guest guest Posted March 28, 2010 Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 Namasthe. We see several examples of Bhakthas where we can observe that they have totally surrendered themselves to the Lord. Paramahamsa a High Caste brahmin used to wash the toilets of Harijans in the night. KannAPpa Nayanar spat on lingam for doing Abhiseka and removed his second eye and kept his foot over the Eyes of the lord to stop the eye of Shiva from bleeding. Bhagwaan Ramana when he disturbed the nests of the wasp (having the highest pain quotient) did not remove it as he felt he has disturbed them. Sabari offered the fruits to Rama after tasting it to ensure only the sweetest fruit reached the lord. Aandal ensured that every garland she made was the prettiest and to this effect she would wear it first and not mind few hairs sticking to the garland. Maha Swamy when staying in an abandoned structure and while meditating came a KING COBRA from a hole and unaware of this he was in meditation to the utter fears of his aides. It raised his head in a striking posture for 30 minutes and went away. This incident was narrated to periyavaal when he was out of meditation and when his aides went to close the hole, periyvaal smiling replied that the serpent was good enough to give them its space and what in return we give it to it and prevented them from closing the hole. This is what is Humility and being one and ever with the Brahaman. The question is how far we are from these Great Mahans.
