BABA AND HUMOUR (2)

[Guest guest]

system. The humour in Baba's words was in the fact of the words. Do not get up

Brahmin, which appeared to be addressed to the Brahmin Shama, when Brahmin was

used in vocative case. But that word was used by Baba in the accusative case.

The words addressed were not to the Brahmin but to the cobra poison, and the

cobra poison was directed by the command of Baba not to go up the Brahmin, that

is, go up Shama's body. Get down, Get down, were addressed similarly to the

poison and not the Brahmin. So, the poison had to get down his body and get

away.

This siddhi is referred to in the Srimad Bhagavata in the verse, Yata Sankalpa

Samsiddhih, and in the Upanishadic phrase, Satyavak Satyasankalpa as the

attributes of divinity and denote the fact that words or ideas expressed by a

person in the divine state, in which Baba was, would have immediate effect and

so the poison did no further injury to Shama's body. But while such a potent

mantra was being uttered by Baba, which is a divine characteristic, there was

also human characteristic of humour combined with it. This was peculiar to

Baba.(Courtesy: HH Pujyasri B. V. Narasimha
