The Mystery Orange

[guest]

Om Namah Shivayah


At the retreat in mid-July, I purchased two oranges that were Amma's prasad. I
decided to
take them home rather than eat them, and I put them on my altar. After about two
weeks,
one of the oranges became rotten and I had to throw it away.

Almost 4 moths later, I still have the other orange on my altar, and it is in
perfect
condition. It looks like it was just picked, and it still has a fresh orange
smell. When it was
in pristine condition after a few months, I thought it was strange....but now
after looking
at it again this morning, I am stumped. A friend pointed out how weird this is
when he
said, "Is that the same orange from July?" and looked at me in disbelief when I
told him
yes.

I am thinking of taking it to Michigan and having Amma bless it again.

Am I the only one who thinks this is strange?

Ever Amazed,

I would probably say sacred rather than strange. Maybe it was a devotee's
offering that Mother took a particular interest in -- sometimes you can see
her twist off the end of a piece of fruit, or bite Her teeth into it. Enjoy
the grace of the inspiring "miracle"!

"ORANGE" you glad?! LOl..well I could not skip this pun to use...Of
course the orange story is full of Amma! My mother was given an
apple by Amma and when she brought it home, it was full of Her
fragrance-in and out. My mom ate it!
