Guest guest Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 DEAR SAI BROTHERS N SISTERS, MY HUMBLE PRANAM AT THE LOTUS FEET. I SAW A SAI DREAM ON DIWALI DAY WHICH I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITH U ALL. PRELUDE- It was Diwali Day ( Tuesday, 1st Nov). One of my friend had invited us in the evening for a Diwali party.There after dinner v all sat together .All were in happy mood for the Diwali.Somebody told “ let us play Tambola ” ,somebody told “ let us do antakshari”, somebody told let us play “ dumb sharadz’”…….etc. Suddenly my husband Dr. Patra suggested “ today is a special occasion, so everybody is requested to perform something,.”. He added “ anything of ur choice u perform- a joke , a song , an event ….etc. Everybody agreed to this proposal , so the show started . Somebody danced, somebody sang a song … Suddenly I realized it is my term.It was Tuesday ,1st Nov, and I had to sing a bhajan on Friday ,4th Nov in our sai center.So , I thought it is a chance to practice my bhajan. I told them that I ‘m going to sing a bhajan and everybody is requested to repeat the song after each line I sing.They did like that…… I had sung…… HEY GOVINDA, HEY GOPALA, HEY MADHAVA MADHUSUDANA AAVO , AAVO , PRABHU AAVO MUJHE AAKAR DARSHA DHIKHAO SATYA DHARMA SHANTI PREMA SWAROOPA AAVO AAVO PRABHU, AAVO AAVO………. ( MEANING---- WELCOME ,WELCOME,WELCOME OH LORD GOVINDA! PLEASE COME N GRANT ME UR DARSHAN……..) V returned from the party at about 2am n went to sleep. I prayed to my Swami for sometime bfor sleep as I do it everyday. Now read what I dreamt that night…. DREAM---- V ( my husband Dr Patra, me n my daughter shikha ) r sitting in our car n on our way to the sai center .v r going to attend the bhajan where me n shikha were scheduled to sing bhajan. By the time v reached the center it was no more Riyadh, it was Puttaparthy i.e. the center is situated in puttaparthy,India.V entered into the bhajan room.the room looked to b almost the same like our Riyadh center.But our regular crowd was not their as all had gone out of station for ID holidays( that is what I was thinking in the dream– )all new faces.One elderly lady helped us to sit. After the bhajan that same lady took me to an adjacent room . In the center of the room there was a chair with live size statue of Swami on it. Few ladies were sitting in front of the chair in silence. When I looked towards the chair suddenly the leg of the statue moved n the whole statue became the real Swami. Seeing this I started to cry—tears of happiness was flowing continuously from my eyes. I was dumpfounded.With folded hands I was standing n crying. With gesture ( without any word coming out my mouth) I asked Swami’s permission to touch His Lotus Feet.He was looking straight to my eyes with bright smile. He raised his forefinger n moved signaling ‘NO’ to my request .I requested again .Again He nodded his head signaling “NO” to my request .But all the time He was looking at me with His bright smile as if a mother is fondly looking at the child.I requested Him for the third time ( ignoring His denial).LO!!! He agreed!!!..I touched His feet................. Dream ends ..I woke up. Totally in the state of bliss. Suddenly I remembered the bhajan I had sung few hours back .. “ COME N GRANT ME DARSHAN.”….. I was indefinably happy, indescribably at peace, incredibly contented……..just running out of words to express my feelings. SO ,HE ACKNOWLEGED MY BHAJAN! WHAT A PRECIOUS GIFT ON DIWALI DAY !! IS IT NOT A MIRACLE? THANKS SWAMI!!! NB—ONE MORE DIVINE DREAM ADDED TO MY PRECIOUS LIST. RENUKA PATRA. RIYADH, SAUDI ARABIA. Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!
