Guest from Morocco

Guest From Morroco

For two months she had stayed at Nasik as a valued guest of my sister,we admired her and secretly wished that she spend time with us too. And god answered the desire. On her way to Morroco she was to spend two days with us .Lucky we were.

I picked her up at the Pizza Hut. She was fair and petite with beautiful hair and teeth. She travelled light. I tried to make her comfortable chatting with her and knowing her background. She was wrestling with her destiny. A vagabond son, failing health and Downturn in US.

She was a real estate dealer in NY with the Japanese and Chinese as her clients. She was knowledgably a very enlightened person. When we chatted with her into the night we realized that she had grown wise over time. She was in this country for the mystique and divine grace of the almighty. She had spent a major part in a secluded Ashram in Bihar doing service and meditating all the while.

In Nasik she taught yoga and meditation to my sister. Yes, she was methodical and dedicated and retained what she was taught at the Ashram. When she showed me the brochures, I was impressed. Surely will visit that place if time permits, I told her.

In the morning when I did pooja, she stood beside me and observed me very intensely .She wanted to know the meaning of the rituals and the Mantras. I told her about the Rudra and the divinity of Shiva the lord of lords.

Next day I saw that she had inflammation in one eye. I enquired. Do you have any eye drops at home She asked. I looked for some, but it had expired. Then it suddenly struck me .I had carried some herbal eye drops from Amarkantak .It was basically a flower extract .I offered her clarifying that I have never used it and it would amount to making her a guneapig. She had more faith in India and its heritage as compared to me. Of course you can use it on me. I instilled the drops into the inflamed eye. Next day she was fine.

I had bought a book from crossword on Shiva mythology .I gave it to her as a gift. She was moved at my generosity. Next day when she left we embraced her and bid her a very gracious journey of life.

Now I learn from face book she teaches Yoga in Morocco!! Surely I will be her guest if god wills! Insha’Allah!!
