El Apocalipsis .....
Swami comenzó su respuesta elaborada, (en caso de que hayan llegado aquí directamente y no tienen idea de lo que Swami está respondiendo, por favor, deténgase aquí. Lea los episodios anteriores y retorne. Esta nota lo estará esperando! )
"¡Sí! En ese momento, me quedé por diez días. Me había alojado en el lugar de la Rani Gwalior (reina). Mucha gente había llegado. (En Punjab). Si veiamos a un lado eran todos turbantes y hacia el otro lado eran todos burkas!. Indulal Shah y Shah Sarla estaban allí. "
El señor GV también añadió diciendo que teníamos las películas de todo eso y añadido la palabra "Kashmir" en alguna parte de la conversación, no recuerdo cómo. Yo sólo quería hablar con Swami para decirle que tengo imágenes maravillosas en el Qutb Minar. Al ver que no estaba teniendo éxito, le dije a SK que se lo dijera en algún momento.
Inmediatamente, cuando Swami le preguntó: "¿Qué has comprado allí?", SK respondió, "Swami, no compre nada. Nosotros sólo vimos todo y tomamos buenas fotos. "Asintió con la cabeza Swami y le dijo:" Aunque usted no compró, al ver algunas cosas, el deseo de comprar se ha presentado.
Luego, mirando a todos nosotros, de una manera simple, Swami dijo: "Cuando fueron a ver todo eso, fui en vuelo a Puttaparthi. Allí di prasadam a todas las personas enfermas y volví ".
Era una revelación sorprendente. Estabamos sorprendidos y emocionados y Swami lo había dicho de manera casual y normal.

Viaje a Nueva Delhi - Parte 4.
Swami entonces vio la Bhaji Pav que todos estaban comiendo. El Dios siempre inquisitivo que es El , le preguntó: "¿Qué es eso?" Cuando todo el mundo respondió - Pav Bhaji - Parecía más confundido que iluminado! . GV vino a nuestro rescate.
"Swami en portugués, Pav significa pan. Ellos fueron los primeros en colonizar Bombay y desde entonces, en Bombay y Maharashtra, este Bhaji Pav es famoso. "Todos nosotros nos quedamos impresionados con el grado de su conocimiento. En algún lugar en el medio, Swami le pregunto a JC, "¿Eres capaz de escuchar lo que estoy diciendo?". Asintió y Swami le preguntó lo que había dicho. JC estaba en blanco y Swami sonrió diciendo: "Entonces, no diga que me podías oír !"
A continuación, terminamos nuestro Tiffin. Swami le preguntó a Mr. Cheema ",... Cheema! Kya Samachar ? ..."(¿Qué noticias hay?) . Él le dijo a Swami que los devotos le esperaban en el recinto de Dwarka. Antes de eso, le dijo, que había devotos esperando por Su darshan haciendo bhajans en el centro internacional. Swami le preguntó si el coche estaba listo. Él dijo que todo estaba en su lugar. Swami dijo: "Entonces, vamos." Y se trasladó de inmediato.
En el escenario en el Centro Internacional de Sathya Sai
Rápidamente me moví detrás de él. Swami se trasladó en el ascensor y luego llegó abajo. A través de la rampa, se trasladó a la zona que la congregación se encontraban cantando los bhajans. Vi a Appa (papa) sentado en la primera línea y tomó algunas fotos. Cuando Swami llegó a el escenario, los dos refrigeradores de gran alcance colocados allí volaron su cabello. Ellos fueron retirados de forma rápida y a continuación se bajo la velocidad! . Swami se sentó durante dos bhajans, después de lo cual él tomó el Aarthi. Después del Aarthi, bendijo a todos con Abhayahastha y dijo: "¡Vamos!"
En el camino hacia el coche antes de la salida del Dwarka
Dándose la vuelta, Swami se trasladó a la rampa. Entonces vi Amma en la segunda línea, parecía feliz en el darshan, pase muy cerca . Vi a Appa de nuevo y le dije que mejor tomara padanamaskar cuando Swami regresaba después de conceder el darshan breve. Me obedeció con gran alegría. Swami vino a la entrada principal y se metió en el coche. A todos nos dijeron que tomáramos el autobús y pasamos por delante de Swami cuando iba en el coche. Pronto nos encontramos en nuestro bus, pero no pudimos ser parte del convoy VIP de Swami, que se alejaba rápidamente, y por lo tanto, comenzamos perseguir a Swami desde casi 20 minutos detrás!
Después de comenzar a quejarnos que es nuestro deber estar junto a Swami, renuncie a su suerte, me instale cómodamente en mi asiento y comencé a dormitar. Estábamos realmente 20 minutos detrás de Swami y nos llevaron a la entrada en la parte posterior del estadio. Estaba tan tranquilo y pacífico allí y era evidente que debia haber habido fuertes medidas de seguridad. Entramos en la parte de atrás de un escenario y cuando llegamos a el escenario, se abrió un enorme estadio! . Era increíblemente grande, del tamaño de alrededor de 3 Vedikas Shanti (el campo en el estadio de Puttaparthi)!.
Y hubo dos escenarios en dos niveles diferentes! . Fue magnífico y había luces por todas partes.
Una vista impresionante del estadio de Dwarka.
La única parte triste de todo era que los devotos, y había miles y miles de ellos, estaban todos muy, muy lejos del escenario. Swami se veía literalmente, como un lápiz Nataraj - un cuerpo de color rojo con una cabeza de negro!. Cuando llegamos algunos niños estaban cantando en el escenario inferior y Swami estaba sentado en la escenario superior. Las luces se habían centrado en a Él y Él se veía tan maravilloso. Llegamos tarde y por lo tanto hemos escuchado sólo la conclusión de una canción después de lo cual comenzaron el canto de los Vedas por una delegación grande de niños Balvikas en el escenario superior.
Swami giró su silla para hacerles frente y él balanceaba sus manos al ritmo de los cantos. Tras el canto, le dijeron a Swami que habían previsto un drama en el escenario superior donde él estaba sentado. Así que le pidieron que se traslade al escenario inferior. Swami estuvo de acuerdo y se trasladó hacia abajo a través de otra larga rampa enorme. Antes de eso, dos niños llegaron a Swami con rosas y ofrendas florales. Una tarjeta le fue mostrada a continuación, Swami los bendijo para que empiecen.
Bendiciones antes del drama .....
El área alfombrada donde Swami fue a ubicarse, era el vértice del escenario inferior y Swami se sentó allí. Vio a todos los chicos que vinieron y se sentaron a su lado y les dijo: "Tomen micrófonos y comiencen a cantar." No hubo prisa en la llegada de los micrófonos, pero antes de que llegaran, Mr. Cheema le dijo a Swami, que si Él, permitiría que comiencen el drama. Swami les dijo que empezaran y eso es lo que pasó.
A pesar de que el drama se inició, CG y yo fuimos frente a los chicos, a la izquierda de Swami y nos sentamos allí. A poco tiempo que el drama comenzó, vi que al menos media docena de moscas querían posarse en sus pies. Poco a poco me acerque y le dije a San que estaba junto a Swami acerca de ello, y tan hermosamente San cubrió sus pies con un pañuelo. Fue una idea elegante y brillante. Ahora las moscas ya no parecía molestarle y el ventilador de mano que sostenía un devoto cercano, para espantar a las moscas, era inútil. Me uní a CG y continué viendo a Swami y el drama. Ambos realizamos unas pocas fotos.
El drama progresaba lentamente, y cuando eran casi las 6:50 pm, Swami dijo: "Ven vamos a salir ahora." Cuando se le dijo que tomaría un poco más, Swami dijo: "Ya es tarde y tenemos que viajar de vuelta! . "Swami también era consciente de lo larga que se hizo la jornada ! Pero, de nuevo, Mr.Cheema intervino y pidió a Swami quedarse durante otros diez minutos.
Después de un tiempo, Swami nuevamente nos miró y preguntó: "¿Aayipoyinda?" ¿Qué podemos decir o hacer? Seguimos sentados, sonriendo y viéndolo a él.
A continuación, se dio la vuelta hacia JK y le dijo que ocupe la presidencia. ¿Qué podía hacer? Como si protestara, Swami alejo suavemente el pañuelo que cubría sus pies e hizo una mueca mala con la cara! (Eso fue tan dulce!) . Nos dimos cuenta de que (el acto y no la intención), y así me acerque y le coloque suavemente el pañuelo. Swami comenzó a alejar el pañuelo, más lento esta vez, y mantuvo en movimiento sus pies, de aquí para allá después de correr las almohadas ! Todos sonreímos y San sonrió poniéndose el pañuelo en el bolsillo.
En otros cinco minutos, el drama llegó a su fin.

Delhi Tour with Sathya Sai - Part 5.
The Revelation.....
Swami began His elaborate response,( in case you have arrived here directly and have no idea as to what Swami is responding to, please stop here. Read the previous episodes and return.This hub will be waiting!)
“Yes! At that time, I stayed for ten days. I had stayed at the place of the Gwalior Rani (queen) too. Many people had come. ( In Punjab) If we see on one side, it was all turbans and on the other side, it was all burkhas! Indulal Shah and Sarla Shah were there.”
GV sir also added saying that we had films of all that and I added the word “Kashmir” into the conversation somewhere - I do not remember how, now. I just wanted to speak to Swami to tell him that I got wonderful pictures at the Qutb Minar. Seeing that I was not succeeding, I told SK to say that sometime.
Immediately, as Swami asked, “What did you buy there?”, SK responded, “Swami we did not buy anything. We only saw everything and we took good photos.” Swami nodded and said, “Though you did not buy, seeing some things the desire to buy would have arisen.” The tiffin continued.
Then, looking at all of us, in the most simple manner, Swami said, “When you went to see all that, I went in flight to Puttaparthi. There I gave prasadam to all the sick and ailing people and we returned.”
Now that was a STARTLING REVELATION. We were amazed and thrilled and Swami had said it in such a casual and normal manner.

Delhi Tour Part 4
Swami then saw the Pav Bhaji that all of us were eating. The ever inquisitive God that He is, He asked, “What is that?” When everyone answered – Pav bhaji – He seemed more confused than enlightened! GV came to our rescue.
“Swami in Portuguese, Pav means bread. They were the first ones to colonise Bombay and since then, in Bombay and Maharashtra, this Pav Bhaji is famous.” All of us were amazed at the extent of his knowledge. Somewhere in between, Swami asked JC, “Are you able to hear what am saying?” He nodded and Swami asked him what He had said. JC was blank and Swami smiled saying, “Then don’t say that you could hear!”
We then finished our tiffin. Swami asked Mr.Cheema, “Cheema! Kya Samachar?” ( What news?) He told Swami that devotees awaited Him at the Dwarka grounds. Before that, Swami was told, that there were devotees waiting for His darshan doing bhajans at the International centre as well. Swami asked whether the car was ready. He said that everything was in place. Swami said , “Then let’s go.” And He moved immediately.
On the stage at the Sathya Sai International Centre
We quickly moved behind Him. Swami moved into the lift and then arrived down. Via the ramp, He moved to the congregation area where the bhajans were on. I saw Appa sitting in the first line and took some pictures. As Swami arrived on the stage, the two powerful coolers placed there blew away at His hair. They were quickly decommissioned and then recomissioned at a much lower speed! Swami sat for two bhajans after which He took Aarthi. Today, He was putting beats for the bhajans. After the Aarthi, He blessed everyone with Abhayahastha and said, “Let us go!”
On the way to the car before departure to the Dwarka Grounds
Turning around, Swami moved up the ramp. Now I saw Amma in the second line and she seemed happy at the very close darshan she got. I saw Appa again and told him that he better take padanamaskar when Swami was returning after granting the brief darshan. He obeyed me with great joy. Swami came to the main entrance and got into the car. We all were told to board our bus and so we passed by in front of Swami as He was going into the car. Soon we were in our bus but we could not be part of Swami’s VIP convoy that was speeding away and thus, we began to trail Swami by almost 20 minutes!
After initially complaining about how it is a must for us to be along with Swami, I resigned to fate, settled comfortably in my seat and began to doze. We were indeed trailing Swami by 20 minutes and we were ushered in at the back entrance of the stadium. It was so quiet and peaceful there and it was evident that there must have been heavy security. We entered the back of a stage and as we came on the stage, it opened out into a huge one! It was amazingly large – the size of about 3 Shanti Vedikas ( the stage in the stadium at Puttaparthi)! And there were two such stages and two different levels! It was magnificent and there were lights all around.
An impressive view of the Dwarka Grounds stageThe only sad part of the whole thing was that the devotees, and there were thousands and thousands of them, were all very very far from the stage. Swami would have literally been seen only as a Nataraj pencil - an red body with a black head! When we reached the grounds, some children- boys and girls- were singing from the lower stage and Swami was seated on the upper stage. Lights had been focused on to Him and He looked so wonderful. We were late and so we heard only the conclusion of one song after which there was Veda chanting by a huge delegation of Balvikas children on the main stage.
Swami turned His chair to face them and He swayed His hands in rhythm to the chants. After the chanting, Swami was told that there was a drama scheduled on the stage where He presently was seated. So He was requested to sit on the lower stage. Swami agreed and He moved down via another huge long ramp. Before that happened, two kids came to Swami with rose and floral offerings. A card was shown to Him and then Swami blessed them to begin.
Blessings before the drama.....
The carpeted area where Swami was to sit was in one vertex of the lower stage and Swami sat there. He saw all the boys who came and sat beside Him and said, “Take mikes and begin singing.” There was a hurry to get mikes but before they arrived Mr.Cheema told Swami that if He permitted, they would begin the drama. Swami told them to begin and that’s what happened.
The drama had a simple plot. It depicted the life of a child who had ingrained in him the human values most essential in society today. It began with a teacher inspiring all the students to get prepared for the Republic day celebrations that were due in a week. In the meanwhile, the story and inspiring ideals of the protagonist were depicted. While all the other children splurge on toys and gifts, he buys a walking stick for his grandmother! He also teaches them ideals and inspires them always. He had a mop of curly hair and he wore an orange T shirt. It was not difficult to make out whom he was alluding to. He was a good representation of the 1930s Sathya in the 22nd century.
Even as the drama started, CG and I went opposite to the boys, on Swami’s left and sat there. A short while into the drama, I saw that there were atleast half a dozen flies that were troubling Him by sitting on His feet. Slowly I moved and told St who was next to Swami about it and St so beautifully covered His feet with a kerchief. It was an elegant and brilliant idea. Now the flies no longer seemed to bother Him and the hand fan that I procured from a nearby devotee to shoo away the flies was rendered useless. I joined CG and continued to see Swami and the drama. Both of us took a few shots.
The drama progressed slowly and when it was almost 6:50pm, Swami told, “Come let us leave now.” When He was told that it would take a little more time, Swami said, “ It is already late and we have to travel back!” Swami too was aware of the long journey to be made! But then again, Mr.Cheema stepped in and requested Swami to stay on for another ten minutes.
After a while, Swami again looked at us and asked, “Aayipoyinda?” What could we say or do? We continued to sit, smiling and seeing Him. He then turned around to JK and told him to take the chair. What could he do? As if protesting, Swami gently kicked away the handkerchief that had covered His feet and made a pouting face! ( That was so sweet!) Ns saw that (the act and not the intent) and so he came forward and gently placed the kerchief back. Wanting to ensure that the intention is noticed, Swami kicked away the kerchief, harder this time, and kept moving both His feet, to and fro after toppling the pillows that acted as a foot rest! We all smiled and St smiled putting the kerchief into His pocket.
In another five minutes, the drama concluded.
