Delhi

"Anjalai, is your Second Son in Delhi?!"
==============================
The year was 1984. A lady named Anjalai was a Maintenance Worker. She came to know that a 'Samiyar' Swamiji was camping in her village and hence came to see Him. She had His darshan and was about to leave when Periyava asked her, "What is your name?".
She replies, "Anjalai".
He says, "Oh, that means you do not fear anything?".
She did not know what to say.
Swamigal continues, "Is your second son in Delhi?".
But, her 2nd son, about 2 years old, was by her side only, dressed in torn and worn out shirt and shorts!
Again, she did not react!
The year now was 2008. Periyava's Aradhanai procession is passing through Anjalai's village. She is there and so too is her 2nd son, 27 years, now an Officer in the HRD Ministry in Delhi!
*****
"Is your second son in Delhi?".
Shankara. Goosebumps. How did Swamigal say these Golden Words, when her second son was just Two Years Old! Wonder, how Anjalai must have felt when His Words became the Truth, 25 years later!
Pranams to the All Knowing One!
A blessed Sunday to Everyone!
