Guest guest Posted July 12, 2008 Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 What do I want? 4th september 91. The boys grabbed the opportunity to pray that Swami come to the hostel for a much awaited visit. But Swami kept playing and putting off the issue. Swami: Why hostel? you are all here, I am also here now. What will I do there? I do not eat puri, I do not eat alasandulu ( a type of gram), I do not take sambhar... Students: Swami, then you ask for what you want, we shall give it. Swami: (instantly) Anything? will you give me anything I ask for? Students: (without hesitation) Yes Swami, we will. Swami: (after a suspense filled pause) Alright. then get me fish, kurma, mutton... Everyone instantly burst into laughter. Students: Swami, if you really need it, we shall definitely get it! Swami: (very lovingly) i do not need anything from anyone. But I do need your pure love, will you give it to me? Students: (instantly) Yes, Swami. Take it. Swami: (extending his hand) Come, then give it! At this, all boys got up and started walking towards Swami. Swami laughed and made all boys sit down. Student: Swami, come to the hostel everyday. Swami: Come there? Why, I am present there all the time, even now! There was an awed silence Student: Swami will you physically come there everyday? Swami: (smilingly correcting him) Not everyday Bangaru, every minute! Student: every second , Swami. All laughed along with Swami. Swami: Love and devotion must come spontaneously. http://saiks-reminiscences.blogspot.com/2008/06/what-do-i-want.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
