Guest guest Posted October 26, 1999 Report Share Posted October 26, 1999 Once Rakhal has massaging Gurudev's legs with oil. At that time he asked Gurudev to grant him the power of having divine visions. But Gurudev pretended as if he did not hear anything. Rakhal repeated his request many times. Suddenly, Gurudev told Rakhal something rudely. On hearing this, Rakhal became sad and angry. He threw away the oil container and ran from that place. But on reaching the temple gate, his legs became senseless. He could not move his legs. Not knowing what to do, just sat on the road. In between Ramakrishna sent Ramlal to console Rakhal and bring him back. Rakhal came back to Ramakrishna walking slowly.Then Gurudev smilingly said, " Did you understand now that you cannot go beyond my influence.? " . Rakhal did not say anything. After sometime, SriRamakrishna was in spiritual ectasy. He talked to mother, " O Mother!, I know that you have given one-sixteenth of your power to Rakhal. That power would be of immense help to the mankind. " . Then he told Rakhal, " You are angry with me. You have to believe that God has a form. You have to believe that you can see him with your own eyes. Control your mind. God will appear before you. " . This advice was given to Rakhal, because Rakhal was in Brahma Samaj for sometime and he did not believe in idol worship. He believed only in formless god. ---- M.Magesh 876, 14th Cross, DSP group Indira Nagar II stage MIEL Bangalore 560 038 phone 5598615-2108 email : mmagesh ---- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
