Two leelas in less than 2 hours...

[Guest guest]

At the Lotus Feet I would love to share with you two amazing situations that

happened with me yesterday.

 

I have a disability in audition that makes me the need of using "prothesis" in

the ears in order to amplify the sound. I use it several years, I am so used to

it.

 

But I dont know how, yesterday for the first time I simply forgot to take it out

to take my shower and wash my hair. It has never ocurred, it is so expensive (

and necessary ) that my care to it is very big...

 

When the bath was over... my panic... i felt that it was in my ear, and to be

using the little prosthesis washing the hair is like putting your computer

under the shower. It is fragil. too fragil, I mean, it simply cannot be wet or

else the system is destroyed!!

 

Then I dried carefully my hands and put the bath towel involving my head to see

my terrible problem... deafness and a river of money.... And took it off...

 

What would you feel if you had put your computer under the shower and after

closing the water it is completely dry????

 

Dry. DRY !!! DRY like....I dont know... dry. Don´t you ask me, brothers, it

was dry and perfect. Even the sweat can damage the system. what to say about

the SHOWER?

 

Well, I will try to tame my emmotion and go on. Astonished, I took my way to go

to work. It was yesterday, june 15th. Before going to the office, I had to go

to a hidden library that has some treasures of Sai Literature, some in english

and spanish, every now and then I go there to see if they got some new ones

(these are generally used). I remember that there was about 5 , one of them

"the man of miracles" and I always fighted with the instinct of buying ALL at

once, I thought- I had to leave them here, others have to get it and know

Swami. When I wanted to give THE SPECIAL gift to some friend, there I was to

get a rare Sai Book, even if used before.

 

The fact is- I made the promise to take with me YESTERDAY and give to my english

teacher this one "man of miracles" in original english, that was on the shelf

for some time. And when I arrived there... None. No Sai Books. A guy bought all

them at once....It was 15 minutes to my time in the Job, I still had to take the

subway!!! and the class is just after work-time. No time to go to Sai Center or

look for another library. I was so disappointed... I thought to myself... See,

I had to have bought aaaaaall the Sai Books... And then my concious said to me *

take it easy, look for it among yoga or meditation, hinduism, who knows there is

some lost ....* Nothing. No Sai Books.

 

I was not believing that i was going to "lose" the opportunity of fulfilling my

promise of taking to my class the Sai Book and the real meaning... Being an

instrument to "introduce" Swamiji to a muslim, here in Brazil only for a while

to work.

 

At this moment it came to my mind my best friend. My best friend is my reference

of devotee. He told me that in a crucial moment He talked to Swami like a son

would make with his Father claiming for attention... He was praying for a

response and said firmly to Swami that he HAD to have the response THAT VERY

MOMENT ..... And he had, in that very moment, a personal attention in Darshan

line.... This Moment and Cumplicity with Bhagavan changed all his life and

heart. Forever.... And by this inspiration...

 

I thought- SWAMIIIIIIIIIIIII, I RE - FU - SE TO GO TO MY WORK WITHOUT THE

BOOK...

IF I DONT FIND A BOOK YOURS TO GIVE TO MY TEACHER, I WILL BE HERE UNTIL THE

STORE CLOSES THE DOOR AT EVENING .....

 

I asked to two sellers to help me, looked for it aaaall the store (was already

almost going to the shelf of medicine or nuclear physics) and suddenly... like

a light turned on in my mind... I reminded that I had lended my "O homem dos

milagres" that is "The man of miracles" in portuguese version to a friend of

mine that lives near the library ( !!! ) there is about one year...I had

almost forgotten this... I KNEW That despite my friend is very busy she WOULD

BE AT HOME THAT MOMENT, and , despite again it is not thaaat educated to arrive

at one´s house without notifying, it was AN URGENCE, and i rang her bell... and

there she was... i talked fastly about the book... she looked for it ... and now

I was going to work (somewhat delayed...but for a noble cause...) with the book

in my hands !!!

 

Swami always listens to our Thoughts. In the Bible it is written: *you will pray

to Him, and He will Listen to you...* It was not exactly what I had imaginated,

but didnt He solve my situation??? I´d rather give it in english, but the

teacher is a portuguese speaker. what is the problem, then, in giving the book

in portuguese? This was a big lesson to me. to be quite aware of understanding

His response to me in a different language of my first expectations.

 

I only could look at the blue sky (My Beloved´s Skin) and think ... * Beloved of

my soul... you show that you are here with me, inside me, around me, in all

ways.... Two rare and treasured dreams I had, Millions of breathings I had, in

all these caresses you show how much you love me... I am listening to the

world (cuz the prosthesis is working!!! ) but too much louder I am listening to

your Sweet Voice in my heart. Thank you for your Love. I love you too....

 

By the way, a large and happy smile of gratitude for the book, of my teacher !!!

 

Once I was talking to my best friend and he told me to pray to Swami asking

nothing for myself but Liberation. Or "Salvation", the more common term for a

Sai Christian.

But now I say... no, this baby that is my soul cannot make plans to after

death... I have to talk with my Swami about my necessity RIGHT NOW that is

..... Bhakti. Devotion!!! I want to be crazy for God ... More and more, forever

and ever more each day, more than the yester one.

The disciples said to Jesus : O Lord, Make greater our Faith !!!

 

I want to make serenades to the Moon singing the Beloved´s Glory and smile back

to the stars... I want to imitate the sound of the sea waves in my soul through

the body in a dance, and make it my ritual for My Beloved. I want to remind that

Piercing Look of my Beloved everytime I look to any eyes... either humans or

animals´.

 

God bless all Earth, each Heart, each Sai Soul, our Prayer Group in Saibabanews,

each name that is there needing prayers

, the moderator, our Sai Centers, our families,

Our DEVOTION.

Thank you for sharing these wonderful leelas. They brought

tears of love and happines to my heart. EVERY TIME that our

it seems always a new miracle, always as if it was the first time.

Thank you for this incredible emotion, love and happiness, thank

you to Swami for bringing this to us all.

That was awe-inspiring. To start the morning by reading such leelas is a gift indeed.
