Guest guest Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 My humble pranams at the divine lotus feet of our ever-present and ever-loving Sri Sathya Sai Baba! A dog's example of love and loyalty " Let me tell you a story from my early years. I was then staying in the old mandhir in Puttaparthi. An english couple were living with at that time. They presented me with a couple of puppies. They said that that the presence of the puppies with Swaami would give them the feeling that they were with swaami even when they were away. I accepted the puppies. They had been named Jack and Jill. How did they live with me? At night i went to bed, one would sleep near my head and the other at my feet.The Maharani came to putaparthi from mysore, and told the driver and informed swaami that she would not partake any food if she heard a dog's bark. Jack was to go with the driver because the driver went to swami's residence to have food and return back at night and swaami had told jack to lead the way. In the early morning the driver was in a rush to start the car and Jack was still sleeping under the car. The car ran over Jack and his spine was broken and was bleeding profusely. It dragged itself all the way to the gates and the watchman said " Swaami Swaami Jack's spine is broken and he is bleeding. " Swami came rushing and gave milk to Jack and Jack gave his two paws to swami's hand that was outstretched and gave it's life to Swaami. What amount of devotion in an animal!! " Jai Sai Ram!!
