Greetings from
Russell's Remnant: www.oocities.org/dkone_us
The
following little story was e-mailed to the Tuesday Night Group by a esoteric
student who recently found out that she is a “Giver”, the #2, in the Enneagram
Personality Study. The healthy “Giver”
lives life giving to others. She
thought this story was a wonderful example of a loving heart.
KomalJain wrote: The Boy Who wanted to meet God .....
A little boy wanted to meet God.
He knew it was a long trip to where God
lived, so he packed his suitcase with a bag of potato
chips and a six-pack of root beer and started his journey.
When he had gone about three blocks,
he met an old woman. She was sitting in
the park, just staring at some pigeons.
The boy sat down next to her and opened his suitcase.
He was about to take a drink from
his root beer when he noticed that the old lady
looked hungry, so he offered her some chips.
She gratefully accepted it and smiled at him.
Her smile was so pretty that the
boy wanted to see it again, so he
offered her a root beer. Again,
she smiled at him. The boy was
delighted! They sat there all afternoon eating
and smiling, but they never said a word.
As twilight approached, the boy realized
how tired he was and he got up
to leave; but before he had gone
more than a few steps, he turned
around, ran back to the old woman, and gave
her a hug. She gave him her biggest smile ever.
When the boy opened the door to his
own house a short time later, his
mother was surprised by the look
of joy on his face. She asked him,
"What did you do today that made you so
happy?" He replied, "I had lunch
with God." But before his mother could
respond, he added, "You know what?
She's got the most beautiful
smile I've ever seen!"
Meanwhile, the old woman, also radiant
with joy, returned to her home.
Her son was stunned by the look
of peace on her face and he asked,
"Mother, what did you do today
that made you so happy?" She replied,
"I ate corn chips in the park with God."
However, before her son responded,
she added, "You know, he's much
younger than I expected."
(Note: It appears that this story was presented by Komal
Jain with part of this story attributed to Sri Aurobindo at http://www.mumbai-central.com <-- Creating a Bombay without
borders.)
Note:
Dr. Russell Whitesell considered Sri Aurobindo one hundred years ahead of his
time and in Sri’s teachings he eliminates the astral plane.
Note: Dr. Russell Whitesell referred to Sai Baba
as one of the two great Teachers who instructs the Christ. If one studies the works of Sai Baba, you
will find that he has performed most all of the miracles that the Christ
performed. He deserves great
reverence.
Sai Baba has spent years building schools especially for
females in India in an effort to bring the women in India up to the male’s standard
in regard to education. This story is
typical of his attempt to awaken the population of India to the equality of men
and women.
