A Wonderful Divine Experience

[Guest guest]

Swami's wonderful ways touches each and everyone of us, each and

everyone of us who have come into Bhagawan's Divine Fold have been

touched by Swami's Divine leela's one way or the other, everyone of us

have been Touched by Swami's Divinity, that Divine spark is enough to

make all of us be with Swami throughout our lives and Beyond.In

1982, when I was a Student in Swami's college in Prasanthi Nilayam,

Swami had hardly spoken to me even once, But Sitting in the Portico of

the Prasanthi Mandir(Before Kulwanth hall was built) and having Swami's

Darshan's everyday was a wonderful experience out of the world, During

the start of that semester, My parents had come toPrasanthi Nilayam

and Swami out of the Blue called them for an interview, Swami told me

to "Sit where I was" when I got up to go with my parents, In the

interview, Swami said that "I will

always be with you always, Don't worry", wonderful Soothing words from

Swami,Just

before my parents were leaving the Next day, Swami called me in front

of the Portico and gave me Vibuthi Prasadam and specificaly told me

that "Give it to your father", As My parents were leaving immediately

after evening Darshan, I disastrously kept that Vibuthipacket in my

pocket and did not even recognise it the next day. My parents suffered

a disastrous accident just on the outskirts of my town where I lived

,Although my Mother survived with minor Bruises, my father suffered

major head and leg injuries, I got the news in the Morning via telegram

and was devastated.As I sat for darshan asking for permission

to go to my place, Swami did not even glance at me even though I sat in

the front of the Portico, That night I hardly slept, My parents were in

hospital and here Swami did not even look at me forget about giving

permission togo home and be with my

parents, the next day I took special permission from my warden to go

for morning darshan, Swami did not even look at me even though I got up

twice, I thought that I should leave in the afternoon bus, I lied to

the warden that Bhagawan hadgiven

me permission and that I have to leave, the bus was at 05.00 P.M in the

evening, just as I took my luggage to board the Bus in the Bus stand,

one of the Students ran towards me saying that "Swami was calling me",

I ran to the Portico of the mandir immediately,Swami was in the

interview room then, Just before bhajan Swami came out and said" Where

is the Prasadam that I told you to give your father?, where is it?, Did

you give it, No. you think I tell you something simply, If you would

have given the Prasadam to yourfather, Things would not have come

to this stage, Why are you leaving without telling me?, You think I do

not know,It paines Swami a Lot, seeing his Boys lying to him, If

something happned to

you, what should I answer your parents, I told them yesterday that I

willtake

care of you. See I had to give the Prasadam to your father

myself"(These are the exact words of Swami as I remember them word to

word even today and also I wrote them in my diary). So saying Swami

told me to go and then said "Don't worry tell your Amma and Nanna to

come for the Birthday", Swami gave me Namaskar and then put His handon

my head. I left For my place, when I reached there in the night, My

father was consiuos but both his legs were fractured, He told me that

"A Person whom I knew" had come and given the Doctors Prasadam to give

it to Him an said that "He should take it everyday". Myfather recovered and came for Swami's Birthday,Swami gave my Father namaskar and Prasadam.That

is the will of the Lord, that is How Swami touches Lives, that is How

Swami's Love touches us and everyone. Can anyone tell me that if one is

touched by Swami's Grace in

such a way like Me as mentioned above and as many of you have also

experienced how can anyone of us say that one should leave those people

who try to malign Swami'sname,

Of course none can do so but I feel that It is the duty of all of us to

try to do something in our own small way to show our Gratitude and Love

for Bhagawan who has given us so much Love in our lives.Om Sai Ram
