Swami often asks young boys, "How many brothers do you have?" The boys invariably reply along expected lines by saying two or three, etc., as is the case. Swami then smiles and softly whispers, "All are your brothers!"
After this, He asks of another boy. "How many friends do you have?" Taking the cue from the earlier conversation, this second boy would say, "Swami, all are my friends."
Swami would again smile and gently say, "No, all are not your friends. God alone is your friend!"
