Saying of Swamishri

Who Are You?  


Swamishri was in Gondal for annakut. We had sent a poem from Amdavad to him. The poem described how the elements of nature acknowledged the existence of an entity greater than themselves... the sun shines very bright, yet it says there is someone who shines brighter; the trees and plants are green and fresh, yet they say there is someone greener and fresher than them. At the end, we had posed a question, "Swami, everyone gives a different opinion of you. So we request you to tell us who you are?" Then we left a blank space for Swamishri to fill: "I am..."

Swamishri told Dharmacharan Swami to keep this to one side. When, after some time, Swamishri came to Amdavad, Swamishri told him to bring the letter out. I had forgotten about the letter altogether. Then, Swamishri asked me, "What do I have to write in the blank space?

"Bapa, write down exactly who you are. And don't hide anything."

Swamishri said, "I am a sadhu."

Again I requested. "Write exactly who you are."

Then Swamishri said, "How do you spell Aksharbrahma in English?" As I dictated, Swamishri wrote "I am Brahman-Akshar." Then he said, "Now how do I write 'Maharaj's das?' Spell it for me."

So then he wrote, 'Maharaj's Das.' Only then did he feel satisfied.
