`.....Where is Swami? Where is He not? One of the beautiful trainings He had 
given us is that He is always with us.


One day, I was sharing with the students this incident quoting His padhyam 
(poem). As Prof. Anil Kumar a few minutes ago was referring, Swami used to say: 
“I am in you, around you, above you, below you, in front you, behind you…” and 
when I completed it, Swami corrected me and completed the statement; He said, 
“I am with you…I am with you”.

In this context, let me share with you the experience of one of the staff 
members in Brindavan. When he got the message that Swami had taken Samadhi, he 
was very distraught. He said that early in the morning at 5 a.m. he was 
praying, “Swami, we have become orphans!” Swami always used to tell us, "Never 
call yourself ‘Anaath' (an orphan). There is nobody who is Anaath, why? Because 
you have Swami as Naatha (Lord) for you. There is only one person who can take 
the title (of Anaath) and that is God Himself because He has no Naatha.”

When he was praying in this manner that morning at 5.30 a.m. his sister who was 
asleep in her home at Chennai gets this dream. She is in her brother’s home at 
Whitefield, Bangalore and is equally distraught; she is praying, “Swami! Why 
have you left us?” Then she sees that Swami manifests in that home and He comes 
up to her and tells, “Where have I gone? I am there with you.”

She says, “No Swami”. Swami says, “Take namaskar" (the blessing of touching the 
holy feet) and persuades her to take namaskar. As she was doing this, Swami 
threw akshathas (sanctified yellow rice grains) on her. When she got up in the 
morning, her whole bed was full of akshathas!

“I am with you” – that is Bhagawan’s assurance to all of us. Swami once said, 
“You may forget Me, I will never ever forget you… I will never forget you.”
