GODDESS GAYATHRI VISITS SWAMI.
By Sri Mumbai Srinivasan
During the long period of seva, in Gold fixing job in Sai Kulwant Hall, I witnessed several amazing events. Here is yet another Divine manifestation witnessed by me.
Bhagavan used to inspect the work of Gold Fixing almost every day. The entire team worked very hard in two shifts to match up with Bhagavan’s enthusiasm. Every one worked two shifts every day, with little time for them to have a nice sleep. From morning 8.00 AM till 2 AM the next day.
I had been living in the Round No. 5 Building, just behind the temple of Mother Gayathri. That particular day I was returning back to my room at about 3 AM. When I was reaching the premises near Gayathri Mandir, , I saw a small crowd of seva dals looking at the Gayathri Mandir very intensely. The Seva Dals, I understand were from the State of Orissa. What I saw there, was astonishing. We could hear the shrilling noise of the iron gate of the Mandir being opened, and a brilliant looking lady was getting inside. Once inside, she simply vanished and the gates automatically closed.
The seva dals, who witnessed this event, were very jubilant and were all talking about this Divine experience. They told me that a few hours ago, they had seen, the gate of the Mandir opening and the Lady coming out and then vanishing. It seemed this was the return trip, which I was also fortunate witness
Naturally, this matter was taken up with Bhagavan Himself, the very next day. Bhagavan had a hearty laugh, and told,”Hey, Dwannapothu (meaning male buffalo), it was Mother Gayathri herself was coming out, and then returning back. She was coming to have My Darshan. For your information, it is not Gayathri alone; all Devathas come every day to Prashanthi Nilayam for Darshan.”
To another question, why they come only during night hours, Swami laughed off and said, “Because in day time, you are all surrounding Me!”
