PART 2
JAI SREE RAM
By
Swamiji's blessings recently I had many small but
wonderful experiences which I want to
share.
LORD KRISHNA MIRACLE
Just
before my school reopened from the summer vacations I was praying to Swamiji to
give me strength and faith so that I can make it through my school and for my
entrance which I am preparing for. By Swami's blessings I could speak to him.
This is what Swamiji told me "Swami
is always with you, I know you are remembering me every time and you have
nothing to fear, whenever you call Swami, He will come. Wish you best of luck.
I am coming with you". And with this line I had the most beautiful darshan of Swami in lord Krishna's form.
Next
morning I got up at 3:40 AM and took a bath and sat down for praying. In the pooja room my grandmother sleeps so I kept the lights off
and I sat and lit the lamp and this beautiful glow came all around. The lamp
was still and not moving at all.. so
still.. then I started chanting hanuman chalisa. When I finished I closed my eyes and prayed
to Swamiji and I got this feeling that he was right there and was watching me.. I immediately remembered Swami saying "whenever you call
I will be there" .. then I opened my eyes and
just behind the lamp leaning on the wall Is a big shirdi baba photo and at the bottom of the
photo there was a shadow of lord Krishna holding the flute and with his feather
on his head and he was sitting on a cradle.. it was a soo clear shadow and we have no idol of lord Krishna in that
form.. the shadow came from a ganesh
idol whose hand's shadow came.. but the hand and the
shadow are sooo different!!! And the moment I realized
the shadow of Krishna it started shaking and it looked like Krishna was
swinging in his cradle and playing the flute!! I was shocked!! I observed the
lamp which was not shaking at all now started shaking..
I stopped moving to see why the lamp is moving but it wont
stop moving and Krishna is still swinging... that was the most beautiful darshan I ever got of my Swami.. I
started to cry because I could not carry the love my Swami showered on me.! It was
endless love.. that made my day and I went to school
with a biiiiiiiiig smile and everything is soo smooth after my Swami's words and he is making sure I am
on my track in various forms which is an experience everyday... it’s not over..
on that day after the miracle I went to school and to
find out another miracle is waiting for me which I am going to share also. .
SHIRDI PRASAD MIRACLE
My
bus that day to school was little late so when I reached my class I was left
with one seat near a girl whom I talk to little not much and I just sat there.. but that was His arrangement.. then in between two periods she looked at me and took out
something from her pocket. It was shirdi Prasad!!!
She told me the principal had gone to shirdi and gave
her some Prasad and she wanted to give some to me.. now I don't know why she thought of me to give the Prasad ..
as I told I talk little but when I talk to her God
always comes in.. then I took 4 sweet prasads for my parents and grandma at home because my
grandmother is a devotee of shirdi baba and His Prasad will make her soo
happy. I also wanted vibudhi but I didn’t want to ask
on my own so I left it. Then I started thinking " look at Swamiji's arrangement - how he visited me in the morning,
how I sat beside that girl, how baba had to give his
Prasad and make my day soo happy".. but Swamiji as usual has to play
with me... otherwise where is the fun na.. .. !!
I
came home and told everyone I had a surprise and that it was shirdi Prasad. When she gave it to me in school I kept it
carefully in my tiffin box and then in my bag and
closed the zip. But when I opened the box to give it to everyone, to my
surprise the box is EMPTY!!! Now I was soooooo sad I
couldn't give it to anyone and I looked at Swamiji and I said "Swamiji why
you are doing this I am so sad I know you only took it away because nothing
happens without your wish" everyone in the house told me that maybe some
other devotee needed it so it went. But in my heart I knew Swami has something
better coming for me that is why He did this.
Next
day I went to school and I simply told that girl that the Prasad disappeared
and she asked me if I want more but I told no it’s ok. But next day she came
and to my surprise she got in a small box - 10 sweet prasads , shirdi vibudhi( which I wanted)
and a special surprise she also gave me guruvayoor
Prasad.. !!! I looked at Swami and told him only you know what leelas you do.. I then understood
why that day the Prasad disappeared so that I get much more Prasad. I love you
Swami keep playing with me like that because once Swami told "Swami plays with those who He loves
and also for longer"..
I
would like to share two more small but very touching experiences.
SMALL GIRL IN MY BUS
One
day in my school bus when I was coming back a small girl in my bus got hurt and
she was crying so I called her and asked what happened? She told she got hurt.
So I told her "catch your hand where you got pain then pull the pain out,
kiss it and throw it outside the window”. She did that and she said pain
reduced little. I then told her do it 3 times then
pain will go faster. She did and started smiling after that. She believed it
and it worked for her.
One
day I had a very bad and sad day in school so while coming home I sat quietly
in the bus just praying to Swamiji and telling him "please give me a
message Swamiji. I want you to make me happy and forget whatever happened and
smile." I was just staring at everything passing by. Finally my stop came
and before I got down that same girl looked at me and caught her hand pulled
something and kissed it and threw it outside the window!! That was my message
from Swami that just leave your sadness and pain behind it will go just the way
I told her when she was in pain and it went.. I was
shocked how Swamiji conveyed such a powerful message in such a simple and
beautiful way. I just looked at that girl and smiled. Then I got down from the
bus and left all my sadness back and started with a fresh smile..
SWAMIJI REPLYING TO MY CALL
This
was another very small but wonderful miracle. I was standing waiting for my bus
and I remembered this song. its lines were "wherever you go, whatever you do , I will be right here waiting for you, whatever it takes
I will be right here waiting for you" and I was thinking of Swamiji that
"do you remember me also?" and suddenly this unknown old man out of
nowhere just walked by and looked at me and put his thumbs up and smiled and I
too gave him back a smile.. Swamiji immediately replied to my question!! That
man was sent by Swamiji. In my 14 years in Kuwait never has anyone told me hi
like that..
At
the end I am soo happy to share my experience and I
wish I continue to share and spread my Swami's love everywhere..
