| Miracle: | What i experienced with ragappa should not be perceived or categorized as a miracle, its just that I felt thrilled when Ragappa communicated to me and taught me a lesson that he and Lord Narayana will reach unto me...only if my prayer and thoughts are pure and innocent (what in religious terms is known as \"Bhakti\") and that no other ostentation or supreme knowledge is needed to seek his or Lord\'s blessings. Right till the time I got into a job, went to US and stayed their alone, away from my family in India, I would always believe that reciting a lot of mantras, doing a lot of Japaas, Venerating to all the elders and being strictly religious all the time would fetch Ragappa and the Lord\'s blessings in all my endeavours. But still there was an emptiness to all my religious beliefs and deeds. I would staunchly believe that reciting Lord Narasimha and Rayaru\'s mantra regularly and that too multiple times would fetch me all their grace. I was not wrong, but lacked direction! And this is where a Guru is needed and this is where Ragappa communicated to me that a simple innocent and trusted call of his or Lord Rama\'s name is all that is needed to seek their grace. And the incident which made me realize this divine truth is when I returned from my first stint in US to India. On reaching India, I went on a weeks piligramage with my mother visiting Mantralayam and other family deities places. On reaching Mantralayam, we got into a choultary, washed ourselves and went straight to the Temple. After taking Ragappa and Lord Hanuman\'s darshan from the outside, we went straight to Swamiji\'s chambers to seek his darshan We had heard that Swamiji were leaving in an half hour time to Delhi and thus we were disappointed that we could not get the mudri dharane from him. But more than that we were disappointed that we could not seek ragappa\'s darshan from the inside of the sanctum sanctorium near to HIS vrundavan. But alas! to enter the inner sanctum, we had to have known some one among the temple authorities to take us inside or bribe our way in! Its never happened that whenever I have visited Mantralayam with my father or my entire family that I had to return without taking his darshan from the inner sanctum. One might argue that his mere dhyana is much powerful so why am I cribbing on seeking his darshan from the inner sanctum. But watching ragappa from the inner sanctum always gave me a spiritual kick and thrill unmatched to any other way of perceiving or seeking ragappa! I needed to see him desperately and more desperate was my mother. So desperate that my mother went ahead and gave Rs.20 to one of the pundits asking him to take us near to ragappa! But some how the pundit was moving around us but was not hinting to anything to what my mother had requested him. My mother and myself were just sitting at the doorsteps of swamiji\'s chambers hoping, like losers, to at least to be contended with swamiji\'s darshan. At that second something happened, a sudden rush possessed my ego and intellect and a small prayer like statement was offered by me to my mother...probably to calm her and console her or to myself...\"If HE wants to...HE will\" After 5 minutes swamiji came out of his chambers and offered me and my mother phala mantrakshte and just stood by near to us. We were speechless in front of the magnificient vairagya murti and stood there just beholding the innocent face of Sushmindra theerta sripadangal. We thought that Swamiji was waiting for his apostles and disciples to proceed to Delhi. But he went straight towards the back of the temple, followed by a few of his disciples and of course by the two of us. and to our astonishment he went straight inside the inner sanctum. Since we were following swamiji closely, we too entered behind him, fortunately, without any objections from the authorities there. Then we were standing just 3 feet away from Ragappa\'s moola vrundavan. The priest there performed the mangalarti of ragappa\'s vrundavan and offered it to Swamiji and to our greatest fortune and surprise, the priest offered the same mangalarti to me and my mother. What was happening was beyond our imagination and had never happened to us!! We were thrilled and right in front of the vrundavan were just the 4 of us - priest, swamiji and the two of us. There again Swamiji blessed us with phala mantakshte and then he specially offered me a sudarshana yantra. This experience was not just thrilling but was the first time that ragappa had communicated to me in his own way taking karuna on me based on my hope-less words. This proved that GOD speaks to us in his own mysterious ways and means! Wiping away all the skeptical cob-webs of my mind, the Kamadhenu of the madhwa dynasty proved that GOD blessed faster to Prahalada and Dhruva than to all the gyanis, tapasvis, rishis and vairagi\'s of the ester and current world. A small innocent trusted prayer is all that he needs to Bless us!! |
