Always we hear from
great Mahatmas and Sadhus that Bagawan Sri Krishna is merciful, He has
unlimited power, in fraction of second He can change the world. To make us
believe in the divine power of Bagawan they give us the example of great
devotees like Meera, Thukaram, Aandal, Dhruva etc. Hearing their charitrams
(story) we do get motivated, but this motivation is momentary. We know that
Bagawan Krishna came to rescue them but the question before us is will He
come to our rescue?
Constant chanting
of Bagawans Naama (name) and unconditional faith in Him will surely make
us realize His Divine power. Keep on calling Him and He is sure to answer
us. A small sound of pressure cooker instructs us that food is ready. A
calling bell tone reminds us that some one is on the door. A telephone ring
indicates that some one is on the line. When these small rings and whistles
has power to say so much then Bagawan Naama definitely has the power to say
our sufferings to Bagawan.
The small boy in
our story was happy as never before. He was happy because he was able to
overcome his fear with help of Gopal Anna. The small boy was feeling like a
liberated bird flying high in the sky. By delegating all responsibility to
Bagawan even we can feel free like a child.
The next morning
the small boy got up early and was getting ready to go to school. Small boy
proudly said to his mother, I can go alone; I am not frightened by the
forest. My Gopal Anna is the Best. Hearing these words
his mother was surprised but was glad that her son has now gathered guts to
go alone.
The small boy
started for the school. The boy was experiencing an amazing excitement. His
thoughts were all concentrated on Gopal Anna. He was recollecting the
questions he wants to ask to Gopal Anna. The charisma of Gopal Anna made him
forget the world. He started anticipating about the sweet moments he is
about to spend with Gopal Anna. By the time these thoughts were going in his
mind he reached the outskirts of the village. The moment he called out for
Him, Gopal Anna appeared in front of him. The immediate appearance of Gopal
Anna enhanced the small boys faith on Him. Happily walking and playing
they reached the end of forest.
Waving bye to Gopal
Anna the small boy proceeded to his school. Seeing the small boy coming
alone his teacher being amazed asked about it.
The
small boy confidently replied, My Gopal Anna helps me cross the forest He
comes whenever I call him, He will never let me alone.
The teacher said, As far as I know you dont have any brother named
Gopal. How can he rescue you? You must be bluffing.
The small boy got
very angry and said, Come in the evening and I will show you my gopal
Anna.
We are not ready to
completely believe in the divine leelas of Bgawan Krishna because we are not
familiar with it. The fact that we dont know about it does not make it
nonexistent. Lets take the example of a compact disk. Seeing it from
outside we cant make out what it is and it seems to be just a round metal
plate. But if you play the CD we come to know the real contents. We human
being view divinity and spirituality externally so we fail to understand its
real content.
Wait till next
month to see how the small boy proves himself to the teacher.
