Jai Sri Vikraman Swamiji
Writing
about Experiences with Sri Vikraman Swamiji is an experience it self that
all of the people who has already experienced Him will agree with me. It
is an experience to be felt with in and more we write in our thought becomes
more and more small to be written about.
The Protector and His Invisible
Hand:
It was August
15th 1998. I had decided to take my wife and 2 year old son for a visit
to an amusement park called Dolphine City on Mahabalipuram Road, which
I planned very suddenly. A place around 25 Kms from the place I reside.
And I was turned a fool by deciding to carry them in my two-wheeler. We
too started from my residence exactly 12 noon. I had almost travelled around
15 Kms. and suddenly the engine of my vehicle ceased and I could literally
see my wife and son flying in front of my eyes. They were thrown to a distance
of 10 meter and I was just on the middle of the road.The next moment a
car stops and helped me and my family to a doctor at a place called Muthukadu
a place 2 kms away. We were given first aid there and put my family in
an auto and proceeded back to Chennai. On my way I found my scooter being
looked after by an old man. I thought of trying on my vehicle which I otherwise
decided to abandon and come back. It just started as if nothing has happened
and riding was really a pleasure.Finally we just reached home safely with
small bruises all round the face of my son.At home I just tried to visually
reconstruct the scene and felt the presence of a Divine Hand just lifting
my wife and son and putting them safely on the side of the road. I could
able to listen a small faint laugh and light tapping on my shoulder. And
then only I could find that there is a big wound on my shoulder. And there
after all the scars were vanished 3 days after the incidence.It all happened
definitely as I used to ask for a protection from Swamiji whenever I ride
a vehicle or start a journey. And I have never heard Swamiji making an
enquire about the incidence at all.He is the saviour and has saved me and
my family from several crucial moments of my life.
He Never Lets His Children Down:
This all happened
during 12th July 1999. As usual my wife was under severe condition of depression
and was treated by a clinical psycologist. She was recovering well by the
grace of Swamiji and hence I wanted my parents to come and spend some time
with her. She was very fine that day and hence I just went out of home
for some official work at around 2 pm in the afternoon.She was just relaxing
with my son at her bed side, my father was reading a newspaper on the hall
and my mother had gone to the terrace for collecting the cloths. Just during
that time my wife had left home and without anybody noticing that. It was
just a matter of 10 minutes and I was informed. I had searched all round
but in vain.Finally I felt hopeless and surrendered.It was something around4
pm. I called Swamiji's number and was answered by somebody in the Ashram
telling me His non-availability. I was almost shattered. I just prayed
frantically for an aswer to my prayer and called after anothr 30 minutes.
It was the same man again and I told him about my situation and after giving
me a listening very patiently he asked me to try around 6 pm. I felt it
was Swamiji's divine message. And I stopped trying to search. Finally at
around 5.30 pm I was adviced to lodge a police complaint abot my missing
wife. Which I did but at the police station again I found a nice gentleman
who discouraged me to do so and he adviced me to come back again at 8.30pm
if necessary and he promised to wait for me . While I was just returning
home I was paged a message by my wife about her reaching home safely and
surprisingly when I checked my watch it was just 6 pm and my prayer was
answered.She told me that she just walked off for no knowledge of her and
had boarded a bus. Suddenly she regained her consiousness and got down
from the bus and waled towards a small hut. She found a middle aged lady
there and asked for a glass of water and after that she went on to deep
sleep. She was waked up by that lady at around 5.30 pm and was offered
a cup of tea and the lady then offered her to drop at my place and thats
how she was back home safely.And if I reconstuct the the same story today
I just wonder how is it possible in the current world for such a thing
to happen with out the direct intervention of His Holiness Sri Vikraman
Swamiji.And now while writing this page even though my wife is again down
with severe depression I have full faith in Swamiji's words " Swami has
taken care of Her " .
He is Hanumat Brahman:
I
was asked by Swamiji to organise a thursday bhajan at my residence. I was
just amused and shocked by His words. I was also confused how to organise
as I live in a small rented place. I planned to organise at the terrace
of the building but it was raining during that time. Still I was asked
by Swamiji to organise the puja at the open terrace and I did whatever
I could able to do. And the most important time Swamiji's arrival came
and people were ready to receive Him. The moment I saw Swamiji getting
down from His vehicle I was just stunned and forgot who I am. I felt being
filled by a cold wave within me and as Swamiji moved towards my house I
could feel shreiks within my body and mind. And when Swamiji was lighting
the lamp at my house a large shreik came from within me and I felt being
thrown out of body and I could feel myself crying with joy uncontrollably
that too at the highest pitch of my voice and the sound was not at all
familiar to me.It must have been my Higher Self / Soul Factor which felt
its life time desire to meet the Master Himself. And may be I have come
to this planet only to meet the living Master Sri Vikraman Swami .
The Puja itself was really soul satisfying and the moment final Aarathi
was offered to Swamiji, a strong wind started flowing and I could hear
Swamiji telling a devotee that it is Lord Maruta ( Vayu and Hanuman is
the Son of Maruta or Vayu,hence called Maruti or Maruta Nandan or Vayu
Putra ) himself. And after that within couple of minutes It started raining
very very heavily and all the devotees went home wet . I could never that
day in my life and it will be recorded as the only happiest day in my life
so far.
Bhaktiman Maha Shaktiman:
He has always
been the Lord of His Devotees. Full of compassionate and unconditional
love . More we Love Him more of love flows from Him . And He is a source
of that . Every moment teaching us how we must behave or live in this material
world . But what have we learnt from Him. He does not want to be followed
by His followers blindly just like that , rather teaches us how to walk
through the path being shown by Him and He goes allout to help us and encourage
us.If I could able to think positively then it is only His thoughts that
prevails and If I could talk sweet then it is only His words in my voice
box. He has blessed me more than I feel of my worth. And He channelises
lot of Messages for me.Now most of the time I become amused to listen what
I speak . The words start flowing fluently and that too I will be listening
them for the first time . In the name of Swamiji I used to predict few
things for my friends and surprisingly everything has come true. One day
I got an oppurtunity to ask Him , if the words spoken by me is just my
imagination or what ? To which He replied it is all God's words . And with
His blessings If I speak it will be a volume and never end one.
While meditating
on Him I used to ask " Who Is God and Who am I ?
" For which He answered very simply " I am the
Ocean and You are a drop in it . " Such a
simple answer to a comples question I was just amused. And to explain it
in my words it is just like this " If we need to know an ocean we need
to test only a drop of it and the ocean will be multiplied by infinity
of the properties of the drop of ocean water as the properties of the ocean
will be just the same that of the drop of the ocean water. And to know
God is just to know ourselves and He is the collective consiousness . "This
lession of Swamiji I will always reagrd as the best ever a lession I got
from any of the Teachers.He just tests us with various real life problems
so as to make us more and more subtle beings and increse in our subtle
energy level will help improving the energy of the Totality that includes
the whole human race as well as Mother Earth.
We are yet
to know about His identity and His real Mission on this Planet.
His Prophecy Comes True :
Long back when
I met Swamiji during the saturday puja He had told me that I will be writing
on the internet and I will be praised by people for this. And now the current
site www.vikramanswami.com is His blessing.
I never trained myself for the job and still then the way the site has
come up I really wonder. He plans and executes and we are just instruments
at His mission. At everystep during the site development I could feel His
presence all round me and flow of ideas were just random and I will feel
happy if I have been able to transfer His thoughts at least 10% in my work.
These are just a handful of experiences
that I have put on this page . And every devotees experience will run in
to volumes for everybody to remember .
Shri Ramajayam
