Guest guest Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 In what way can Bhagawan waste money on himself? He neither wears slippers, watch or trendy dresses. He is simple and complains that even the buttons on his robe have become too heavy for His taste. If we calculate, Swami’s daily expenses, it may be less than Rs 10 per day. However, when Swamy is doing something for others, he spares no expense. Has he not spent several crores of rupees building educational institutions and hospitals, and doing water projects? None for himself and everything for others - that’s our Swami!Swami indeed does not waste Money! It is quite evident to anyone in Darshan how controlled Swami is in his movements, looks and speech. Even when conversing with someone, it is easy to notice that Swami does not use any more volume than needed by the devotee to hear Him. Institute boys are often commanded by Bhagawan by eye movement alone!Swami indeed does not waste His energy! Once our brothers had a personal letter to offer to Bhagawan. Swami, during the course of Darshan, walked to him, received his letter, looked at the unmarked envelope covering the letter, pulled out the contents, kept the contents and returned the unmarked envelope for reuse! Moreover, quite often one may observe Bhagawan reusing the backside of envelopes for writing small notes.Swami indeed does not waste paper! During a Verandah session with the boys, Bhagawan once was clarifying why His eyes were particularly red that day. Apparently Swami had some soap get caught in the eye while washing His face. This happened not due to carelessness, but precisely because Swami was so keen on conserving water even while washing his face, that He kept shutting off the tap between the regular acts of rinsing and applying soap!!Swami indeed does not waste water!
