Love and Patience

 

Love and Patience  


Swamishri was absorbed in reading a letter.

 At that time a little boy called Hari entered.

He went upto Swamishri and said, “Swami, I’d like to tell you a story.”

Though the boy was disturbing Swamishri’s work, Swamishri did not displease him. “Why one, tell me two,” Swamishri replied.

 Then Swamishri placed his spectacles and the letter on one side and gave his undivided attention to the boy.

Hari could just about manage to talk in Gujarati.

The only two Gujarati words that could be understood in his story were ‘Bhagatji Maharaj’ and ‘churma’ (sweetened baked flour).

Hari narrated the incident of Bhagatji Maharaj eating the sweetened baked flour in his childhood.

Swamishri understood the story from two words spoken by the boy.

 Swamishri listened to Hari’s story with rapt attention till he finished speaking.

Then Swamishri called him closer and remarked that he should also do likewise and then hide away!

Swamishri’s love and patience encouraged the child and made him happy.
