Overloaded Roofs




Once during Baba's visit to Kakinada, He addressed a massive gathering.  In front of the dais, three streets stretching into the distance in front and two similar ones on the right and left sides of the dais, were packed with people (every rooftop loaded with a thick crowd of humans).

Baba rose to address the "mammoth" gathering.  But before He began the discourse, He gazed deliberately at every section of the assembly on the ground and on the roofs, on all the three sides, spending over five minutes in all.  While conversing with the devotees, Baba referred to that novel episode.

"Shall I tell you all why I did so?  I was bolstering the roofs of those houses.  When they were built, no one anticipated that one day hundreds would be perching on top.  And did you see the clusters of men astride the branches of those trees?"

No wonder the Loving Lord anticipated and prevented the collapse of overloaded roof slabs by casting His guarding glance at them.
