Mr. Alluri Ramakrishna Rao (79), a retired teacher, relates a few of his experiences of the Divinity of Bhagavan in his own words.

'Once my son, Mr. Madhava Rao took us to Tirupati and from there to Puttaparthi. It was in 1988. That was my first visit. I had Darshan of Bhagavan then for the first time. Soon after my return from Puttaparthi, a match came for my daughter Ms. Jaya without any effort on my part. For the previous five years, we were trying in vain to perform her marriage, but could not get a good match. The marriage was consummated within a month owing to Swami's grace. Since then we have all become devotees of Swami.

We started a bhajan mandali with just four to five members. It has later become a Seva Samithi with over two hundred members, with my son Madhava Rao being its founder member.

My son Madhava Rao passed away after a brief illness at Khammam in 2002. Strangely, I did not break down on that tragic occasion. Even while performing karma to him, I did not do so. Swami granted me the fortitude needed to withstand the calamity.

My grand daughter, Ms. Maitreyi got a seat for M.Sc. (Applied Maths) in Geetam's College, Vizag, owing to Bhagavan's grace. Without any effort on my part, I received orders of her transfer to Madhira soon after the death of my son, which enables me to attend to necessary follow-up, owing to Swami's grace.

After reciting Bhadra Kalyanam, my grandson, Mr. Bhargava had occasion to call on Dr. Krishna Kumari, its author. On seeing him, Dr. Krishna Kumari remarked, 'you are Bhargava!' though she had never seen him earlier!

Bhagavan blesses my grandchildren with His Darshan (in the astral plane) and has been taking care of them as their father and mother. When my grand daughter Ms. Maitreyi could not secure necessary reference material for her project work, she prayed to Bhagavan. Next day, one person came to her and asked, 'are you, by any chance, Ms. Maitreyi?'

'Yes!' My grand daughter said.

'These are for you', so saying he handed over a few books and notes. That was the material she exactly needed for her work! She could not find out who he was as he left before she could ask any question.'
