On A Beautiful Island
I was going through a very difficult time and used to pray to Krishna, talking to him all the time. One day, out of anger, I asked why he was hiding and why he didn’t come to save me from all my worries. In 2006, I met Gurudev for the first time when he visited our beautiful island. A friend invited me to a big ceremony given for Gurudev, and I sat far from the entrance corridor. Suddenly, my friend called me to sit near her and told me that Gurudev would pass in our direction. Without thinking, I found myself moving towards her. A few minutes later, Gurudev arrived, and while passing near us, I reached out and touched his hand. I felt an indescribable emptiness and started crying. My friend didn’t understand what was happening. Gurudev gave a beautiful speech, and I heard his words, “I have come to take all your worries away.” I didn’t doubt his true identity for a second. Since then, my life has changed so much, and Gurudev takes care of every little thing that I need. I dance in his presence every minute. My life is meaningless without him. Jai Guru Dev.
