[Post # 653]: When Swami Subodhananda was practising - TopicsExpress



          

[Post # 653]: When Swami Subodhananda was practising austerities in Gaya he had a life-threatening experience which he later described: It was the month of August. I saw a person wade through the Phalgu River and reach the other side. It was waist-deep, so I decided to cross. My companion knew how to swim, but I didnt. Suddenly the river swelled with a strong current because of heavy rain. When I had crossed a certain distance, I suddenly found myself in throat-deep water. I realized that there was very little chance of saving my life so I said to my companion: I dont know where this current will take me. There is little chance for my life. Please convey my salutations to my brother disciples. Then I prayed to the Master, Please accept my last ‘pranam’ [salutation]. As soon as I said that, I was completely submerged, I felt that someone held my hand and pulled me through that gushing stream to the other side of the river.
