Guest guest Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 EXPERIENCE Doma Venkatasami Gupta’s father-in-law who is now at Bezwada has related the following wonderful experience. When Baba was I flesh, this gentleman accompanied his master the late Gummadali Lakshminarayana of Secunderabad to Shirdi and both took darshan of Baba many times. G.L. was an ordinary merchant not very rich at that time. On one occasion, Baba told him “you had build a Lakshminarayana temple” G.L.asked Baba what the probable cost would be. Baba replied “6 Lakhs” . G.L. was aghast as he had not with even a tiny fraction of that amount. G.L. therefore believed that this was either a joke or some meaningless statement of Baba. But within 2 years, his own business flourished and he became an owner of many lakhs and could spare 6 lakhs. At that time Baba had attained Mahasamadhi. Anyhow G.L. obeyed the direction of Baba and constructed the Lakshminarayana temple at Secunderabad costing about 6 lakhs inclusive of the permanent funds, it is still there well maintained and well managed by G.L’s children.
