Padanamaskaram Swamiji!
Shri Datta Swami told in a recent Satsanga that whenever spiritual discussion is done by the devotees, God Dattatreya will be present in such Spiritual discussions. Therefore, we got a doubt whether God Dattatreya is with us.
Last week Friday i.e., 15th July, my relative Abhiram invited me for dinner at his house which is very close to Smt. Annapurnamma garu’s house. He is also a Devotee of Shri Datta Swami. We both had our dinner and then thought of going for a walk. Both of us were walking on a dark street near a small Lord Ganesh temple around 12:50AM in the midnight. On our way we were discussing the Divine knowledge given by our Swami. I was telling Abhiram that wherever the Divine knowledge is discussed, Lord Dattatreya will be present in that place. The moment I uttered these words I felt somebody’s presence behind me. Suddenly when I turned back, there was no one but I saw very long foot prints of around 16 size that got imprinted deeply on the cement road. These footprints were very beautiful and were very big. I was sure that these foot prints were not there before because there were puddles around that road which were filled with water as it rained heavily in Hyderabad. If this foot print existed before itself there should have been some water in those footprints too. Those footprints were totally dry. I kept my foot in that footprint to compare and realized that no way that footprint belongs to a human. As we walked through that street, I saw more and more foot prints that appeared for approximately next half kilometer. All of the footprints are of not same size and shape. Some appeared like a child’s footprint and some like a women’s footprint. Suddenly the wind started blowing and some 4 dogs appeared from different directions. When we analyzed the sequence of events that happened, that too exactly at the moment when I said that “Wherever the Divine Knowledge is being discussed, there Lord Dattatreya will be present”, we concluded that it is Swami’s miracle. This way Swami blessed us with His Divine presence as we discussed about Him and His Divine Knowledge.
Jai Guru Datta Swami.
