Are You Spying On Him?!?
Sunday, September 16th, 2012
How often have we seen the perfect ‘human face’ of the Avatar descended, our
Beloved Bhagawan, living His life among men, talking, joking and laughing –
like humans, touching every heart with His indelible impressions of Supreme
Love. An interesting instance involving Prof Kasturi, Indra Devi and Beloved
Bhagawan.
Once Bhagawan had given a ring to Ms Indra Devi, a devotee from Mexico, who was
teaching Yoga to boys in Sanskrit Patasala in Prasanthi Nilayam. The devotee
was not very happy with the ring as it was missing Bhagawan’s image on it and
she had stopped wearing ornaments ever since she started teaching Yoga way back
in 1939.
The next morning when the devotee and group was called in for interview,
Bhagawan specially asked for the ring saying, “Accha Nahi Hai” meaning “it is
not good”. Taking it by hand He merely blew on it, thereby transforming the
same into a ringset with a single diamond. “You wanted to see My image in it?”
asked Bhagawan smilingly, knowing her thoughts. “You will see it whenever you
want, but, no one else will”. With these words He placed the ring on her
finger. “Wear it, especially when going out”, Bhagawan instructed, “it will let
Me know when you are in danger, so that I can protect you.”
The devotee had tried out with the ring on occasions. Once when she was in far
off California, she could see Bhagawan in a white car! On another occasion, she
could see Him addressing a small gathering sitting in a semi-circle. On both
the occasions she had noted down the dates and particulars.
Next time when she had come to Prasanthi Nilayam she checked the dates with
Prof Kasturi. He attested that on the first occasion, Bhagawan had gone on a
tour in a car and on the second occasion He was addressing a gathering in
Kerala, where devotees were made to sit in semi-circle!
When the devotee was testifying the veracity of what she had seen through the
miraculous ring, the ever witty and jovial, Kasturi asked her in his own
inimitable style, “Are you spying on Him?” When this remark of Prof Kasturi was
narrated in His Divine Presence, Bhagawan and the entire gathering broke into a
laughter!
…writes Indra Devi herself about the incident.
So, I resumed and told about the ring which Bhagawan had given to me about
three years ago, pleased with the Yogasanas I had been teaching the boys of the
Sanskrit Patasala at Prasanthi Nilayam. Actually, He had first given me a
different one He created. “Shadguna!”, He said, “Rays of Virtue!”; He
explained, while He gave it to me. When I came to my room I didn’t feel too
happy about it, because it didn’t have His image and I had given up wearing
jewels ever since starting to teach Yoga in 1939.
The next morning, when we were all called back into the ‘interview room’ the
first thing Bhagawan told, turning to me was, “Give me the ring: Accha nahi hai
(it is not good)” Then, taking it by the hand, He merely, blew on it, there by
transforming it into a ring set with a single diamond. “You wanted to see My
image in it?”, He smiled, knowing my thoughts. “You will see it whenever you
want, but, no one else will”. With these words, He placed the ring on my
finger. “Wear it, especially when going out,” Bhagawan instructed, “it will let
Me know when you are in danger so that I can protect you”.
Once when I was in far-off California, I looked at the ring and clearly saw in
it Baba sitting in a white car! I figured and wrote down the date in the
calendar. On another occasion, I saw Him addressing a crowd that was sitting in
a semicircle. It did not look like Prasanthi Nilayam. Again, I made a note of
the date and on my next pilgrimage to Prasanthi Nilayam, I checked the dates
with Brother Kasturi. He attested that on the first occasion, Bhagawan had gone
on tour on the date I saw Him. “I saw Him in a white car, whereas His car is a
dark one.” I argued! “He has now a white one.” Replied Brother. He also
verified that on the second occasion Bhagawan was addressing a gathering in
Kerala, where people sat in a semi-circle!
“Are you spying on Him?” Brother Kasturi asked me, jokingly! When I quoted this
remark of Brother Kasturi, Bhagawan and with Him, the entire audience broke
into a laughter. I felt that that was the best time for me to end my talk.
