When you let go of your small little desires for a greater good
*Awesome Guru Story From Swami Brahmachitt Ji*
Me along with few others are blessed to travel with Gurudev in a chartered flight yesterday.
This trip from Bangalore to Bhubaneshwar reinforced Gurudev’s this knowledge point in my mind strongly: “When you let go of your small little desires for a greater good, they automatically gets fulfilled.”
Let me explain:
I had planned to leave from Bangalore ashram on 30th Oct after spending a week there, but as a request to conduct an international Upanayanam course from 2nd - 5th Nov came up, my stay got extended till 5th.
And as Gurudev was leaving for SSU on 7th, the thought came “should I travel to SSU with HIM on 7th! Should I request Gurudev!”
But soon I dropped this plan when I came to know HE is traveling in a chartered plane. I thought there must be few important dignitaries/guests traveling with HIM, and it would be an unnecessary burden if I will ask Gurudev to take me along.
So I booked a 6th Nov 4:05 pm flight to Bhubaneshwar through Sumeru travel. Just 4 hours before the departure, around 12 noon, me and Swami Jaatveda ji were in Gurukul to have Ganapati temple darshan, we saw Gurudev there in a program. We both went there, and when HE was leaving in his car, I informed him: “Gurudev I am leaving now!”
He asked me: How are you going?
Me: I have a 4:00 pm flight Gurudev.
He: You talk to Kartik(his secretary), and come with me tomorrow.
And thus I got my 2nd chartered flight trip with Gurudev.Always grateful
