Ms. Pooja Y, I B.A.,
Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Learning,
Anantapur Campus.

Ms. Pooja Y, a student of the first year B.A. of the Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Learning, Anantapur Campus narrates her experience of the Divinity of Bhagavan in her own words.

'This happened long back when I sat with my Balvikas guru on the holy sands of Prasanthi Nilayam to have the darshan of the Divine One. There was a lady sitting beside me with her daughter. The girl was almost of my age. Nature had played a cruel trick on her. She was blind. I felt very sorry for her, and kept gazing at her. Lost in the thoughts of the strange dark life she must be leading, I did not notice that Swami had approached where we had been sitting. Even before I could realize it, He passed by, and stood before that girl. Bending in front, a little, He asked the girl 'what colour is my robe?' At this the poor girl could not say anything. Swami created vibhuti, and sprinkled it on her eyes, and repeated the same question. To my astonishment, immediately the girl replied in a choked voice, 'orange Swami.'
