Guest guest Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 Jai Sairam, Once again due to ISP crash, I could not send this report yesterday itself. My apologies. Even as I was waiting for Swami's darshan yesterday, I came across a teacher who asked me whether I have yet read the book of Prof.Korubu, to which I replied in the negative. On query, I was given to understand the manner in which our beloved Lord selected the faculty for his deemed University long ago. This was during the time, when Prof Gokak was the vice chancellor. And they had advertised for 15 faculty positions to be filled up and something like 18000 applications were received. With that sort of overwhelming response, the authorities were flabbergasted as to how to select the faculty. After lot of deliberation, it was decided to place the matter in the hands of Swami, and Swami told them to arrange all the applications received on a big table, and that He would come and help the selection process. As organised by the University staff and on an appointed day, our Lord visited the Administration Office to see the letters arranged on the table. After looking at the applications for a few seconds, Swami put out His hand and selected 15 applications, and gave them to the Vice Chancellor. Much to the delight of one and all, it was found that Swami had selected one faculty each for all the 15 faculty needs. What a miracle ! When we have such a master churning us around, "Why fear, when I am here"? Morning Darshan started as usual around 8.15 AM, and Swami walked His usual way. However once again, to the delight of those who were sitting on the side aisle(men), Swami turned into the side aisle and caused such a beautiful excitement. Thus I am now twice blessed to have the Darshan of our beloved Bhagavan, close up, really close in the last 20 days that Swamy has been here. Is it not wonderful. Please join me in our sincere prayer to keep the Lord with us all the time. He is ever so merciful, and compassionate. The afternoon darshan started a little after 4 PM, and Swami took His chair to listen to the bhajans, which went on for sometime. However Swami departed 20 minutes after His arrival and went through the right exit on the center stage, which is rare. He normally goes through the left exit only. Swami took a letter from an International devotee hild yesterday morning, making the child and their family so happy. If you had looked at the face of the child and Swami's face, there was perfect unison and integration. Purity does help as Swami says. What a sweet smile Swamy gave to that child. Most of the society leave their children care of the TV (Tele Visham, as swamy points out; Visham means Poison). However this International devotee thought it fit to bring a small child all the way for an introduction to the Master of the Universe. Today (Wednesday) the morning darshan started at aroun 8.10 AM and Swami as usual came via the ladies side. Today He did marathon walking, walking all the way into the extended area of Ramesh Hall ignoring the car that was discreetly following HIM. Such was His compassion for His devotees, who had thronged to see HIm from real close. Since my ISP is still down, I thought it fit to send this update from a cybercafe today, instead of waiting for evening to go home and then send. Somebody drew my attention also today to one of the best sai humour. During Prof Kasturi's days, Swami one day asked him, as to why he was wearing a bandage on his forehead (He meant the thick Vibhuti horizontal lines that Prof Kasturi used to wear always). To Swami it appeared as a bandage ? Kasturi who is known for his sense of wit, took it beautifully and informed Swami that he needed that bandage to get rid of the worldly BONDAGE. How nice it was to listen to this sai humor. Sai pranams. Raja Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
