Saying of Swamishri

Love for an Ordinary Devotee  


An ordinary shepherd of Sarangpur, Raghu Bharwad, came for Swamishri’s darshan. Swamishri called him lovingly, “Come Raghuvir!”

Raghu, took off his pagh and bowed his head before Swamishri and said, “Jai Swaminarayan.”

“Where have you been all these days? Why didn’t you come to see me earlier? Swamishri enquired.

“I have been sick for the past three to four days. See, here are the tablets…” and so saying, Raghu showed them to Swamishri. Swamishri listened to him with great interest.

“His children have built proper homes by the main road,” a sadhu informed Swamishri.

“Once, I’d like to take Swamishri there to sanctify it,” Raghu spoke in a rustic, candid tone.

“These sadhu will come,” Swamishri replied. Raghu was happy at the proposal and responded, “Your love for me is the same as before.”

“Come to the mandir daily for Thakorji’s darshan. This is a pilgrim place,” Swamishri told Raghu, “in which Ganga, Haridwar, Rishikesh, Dwarka and all pilgrim places are included.”

“Bless me with your grace always. It means everything to me,” Raghu asked while he was about to leave.

Swamishri raised his hand and blessed him.

Though, an ordinary shepherd, Swamishri’s rapport and interest in Raghu reflect his care and love for ordinary rural devotees like him.
