Vishnu Lahari - 5

Giving Re-birth

Ajay is a great devotee of Swami. His wife is Nagalakshmi. She is also a devotee of Swami. The couple lives in their own house in Satyanarayanapuram, Vijayawada. Swami has given them permission to install and worship the photo of "Brahma Datta" in their house. He also wrote a book called "Brahma Jnaanam" in their house. Meanwhile, one day, Swami told Ajay, "Tell Lakshmi (Ajay's wife) that I told her to spend time in the meditation of God. The chariot is coming; tell her to get ready to board it." And then He left. Ajay was stunned. That night, soldiers of Yama appeared to Lakshmi with an iron rod. In the early morning, Lakshmi, after making a loud cry, went into a coma. When the scan was done, the brain nerves were cut and a huge blood clot was found. “This is a second stage; there is no use,” said the doctors. They also refused to treat her. Ajay came and sought refuge with Swami. Swami gave him Vibhuti and Kumkum. Ajay, who had packed them and kept them in his pocket, forgot about them when he went to the hospital in that terrible state of grief. Lakshmi held Ajay's hand as he was about to leave. No matter how much he tried to leave her, she was not letting him go! Finally, when Vibhuti and Kumkuma were remembered, he placed them on Lakshmi's forehead and then she left his hand! Swami later said that it was Swami who held Ajay's hand through Lakshmi. Swami repeatedly asked Ajay to get the scan done again for Lakshmi and finally the scanning was done. The blood clot has disappeared! Lakshmi started talking. Lakshmi was brought home. That day, at midnight, Ajay's father heard two different voices arguing from the room where Swami was sleeping. The next day, Swami said that He had argued with Kalabhairava about Lakshmi.

The next day was Thursday. Swami told Shri Ajay, “You can go to the office today.” That day itself, Smt. Lakshmi was walking around comfortably very fast. Smt. Lakshmi was telling Ajay not to tell Swami about her illness, as He would suffer on behalf of her. But Swami attracted Smt. Lakshmi’s disease and used to go into coma every Sunday. Everyone thought that Swami was sleeping. “I have made an agreement with the deity of Justice (Dharmadeva) that I will enjoy the fruits of the deeds of My devotees. Therefore, the fruits of deeds will not go away without enjoying them. Although I have the power to cancel the fruits of deeds, I will not misuse it. The enjoyment of the fruits of the deeds of devotees is one of the reasons for the Paramatman to incarnate as a human being. I can use My power to enjoy the fruits of deeds and not suffer, but that would be deceiving the deity of Justice. So, I too will suffer like you while enjoying the fruits of deeds. No devotee can tolerate Swami suffering. Therefore, a true devotee does not ask for anything from Swami. He worships without any desire", thus always preaches Swami. Although Lakshmi was completely healthy, there still remained some disease in her hand. She mistakenly asked, "Swami, heal this hand too!" That's it! Swami did not attract the remains of the fruits of deeds. So, that hand did not cure. “The soul should undergo at least a little bit of the remains of fruits of deeds. That is the justice that made Smt. Lakshmi to ask like that,” said Swami. Ah! What a naked truth. Swami says that one should go to Swami as a guest, but not as a beggar.
