Gloves and Grace…
Thursday, August 30, 2012
“I am a 14 year old Grade 9 student at the Highland Junior High School in Toronto, Canada. Recently, I had, I hope, the good fortune of experiencing Bhagawan’s Grace. I told it to my parents. They were very pleased. They shared it with some of their friends at Sri Sathya Sai Baba Centre of Toronto. One of them suggested that I should share the episode with the readers of ‘Sanathana Sarathi’,” wrote little Priya Kumar from Canada, sharing his own experience of Bhagawan’s Divinity…. From Sanathana Sarathi, August 1987.
On Sunday mornings I deliver 35-40 newspapers in my neighbourhood. These are morning papers, so I have to deliver them before 8 a.m. But Sunday, February 15, 1987, was an extremely cold morning. The temperature was 23 degree Celsius. There was also a chill wind, which made the temperature seem even worse. As usual, I started out with my load of newspapers in a shopping cart accompanied by my pet dog, Snowball. Snowball is fluffy, white Samoyed, an Arctic breed. But the weather was so cruel that I thought even my Arctic companion was not enjoying the walk. His breath was freezing on his whiskers and I had some fun breaking them off. read more »

How would God respond to such a prayer that comes with ‘Other than you, refuge there is none” attitude. Often He allows one to take on the challenges, trudging the first step, and in the nick of time when the last-ditch effort by the human fails, He makes His ‘guest appearance’ as is narrated below… an incident from the diary of a former Civil Servant, as published in the January 1975 issue of Sanathana Sarathi.
