Guest guest Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 Of all the physical objects that Swami has manifested, or materialized, out of thin air Vibuthi is the most common and miraculous. Because ash is the final end product of all matter on earth, it holds a special sacred place in the world's religions. In the spiritual sense, vibhuti is the most precious object. To quote Swami : "I apply vibhuti to your brow to remind you that you too are divine." This picture was taken by Ratan Lal on May 15, 1968. The event took place near Dwaraka .The description of this event is given by N. Kasturi in Sathyam Sivaram Sundaram, Part III, on page 183-184.: 'While returning to Jamnagar in the evening, Baba suddenly said, 'O, the sea is here!' and the cars stopped. We came upon a wide patch of sandy shore, with a temple on a heap of rocks at one end. Baba walked along the watery edge and sat on the sands at last, as Krishna must have sat some fifty centuries ago. Swami heaped the soft sand to the height of a cubit in front of him, putting us all into a state of extreme expectancy. He flattened the heap and, with his finger, drew a three-slanted line, a rough circle on top of it, a small triangle over that, and finally a short line across the circle. 'It is ready,' he said. Digging his hands deep into the pile, he drew forth a bright golden image of Lord Krishna playing the flute. 'You did not get darshan of Krishna in the temple; have it now,' He said. Kasturi surmises that the long line was for the body, the circle for the forehead, the triangle for the peackcock feather, and the short line for the flute.'
