Guest guest Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 AUM SAI RAM In the Island of Mauritius,lived Govinda and his wife,Hemawatee.Govinda was very possessive over the sweet and docile Hemawatee.He eyed with jealousy her profound Love for Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba. One day, he could not take it any more;he barged into the 'pooja ghar'(prayer room) whilst Hemawatee was rendering a beautiful Sai bhajjan for Bhagawan Baba-'Murali krsna,mukhunda krsna,mohan krsna,krsna!' He lifted the statue of Shirdr Sai Baba (they did not have one of Sathya Sai Baba),in an irresistible fit of fury and threw it out of the window;it fell and broke it into pieces. The heart of Hemawatee was shattered as she yelled and sobbed: "Govinda! what have you done! Baba will never forgive us!" However,a few days later,Hemawatee was delving into the pages of a Sai book when she read: "Raso Vai SAH! Only in Raso,purity of feeling that divine sweetness dwells!Seeing purity in all actions of others is wonderful to experience,"Baba says," but even more is KNOWING that all actions regardlesss of their kind contain elements of purity-even actions that are foul,bitter and full of suffering." Hemawatee was relieved! She understood that the action of her husband was childish....innocent and pure. Govinda was so full of love for her,that he could not tolerate her demonstration of Love for another,even when that other was GOD Himself! God is Love,Love is God! Rasa Vai Sah! at the lotus feet of SAI anita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
