Monkeys

 

One very interesting instance which was shared by Mr. Sanjay Sahani.

"We were in Badrinath two months back, during the holidays and we had a satsang.  One day he shared this about a person who was privileged to walk behind Swami in the earlier times in Brindavan.  There was no hall but only trees; there were some mango trees in the campus.  One day as he was walking behind Bhagawan, Swami passed by a mango tree and on the tree was a bunch of monkeys.  Swami told this person, "Go to Rajmata's residence and bring some peanuts."  He quickly ran as he knew where the peanuts were in the kitchen; he brought those peanuts and gave them to Bhagawan.


Bhagawan put a fistful of peanuts in His open palm, He looked at the monkeys and just indicated by His eyes for them to come and partake.  The individual was totally flabbergasted and amazed that all the monkeys came down and formed a perfect queue in front of Bhagawan better than what the boys make in the Mandir.  They came in line and took a peanut each.  We spoke about the monkeys grabbing peanuts.  No!  We have here the Parameshti who can control Prakriti - even the monkey mind which cannot be controlled.


After that they went back to the tree.  So there is somebody in this world who can control nature and here is an example.  "I knew Swami is God.  But that day I had complete faith in Him.  I surrendered to Him saying, "O God!  If somebody can control the monkey mind of human beings, it is only this Avatar and nobody else."
