Story behind the photo – 151 - Swami tells about the shape of the Earth. Swami’s sessions with students, whether in Brindavanam, Kodaikanal, or Sundaram, were rejoiced by all participants. The students, and some chosen devotees felt blessed to attend such session. For few years, I too was blessed to attend these students’ sessions. A topic would be evolved from the questions of some students and at times, Swami Himself ask a question. One day Swami looked at all students lovingly and raised a question. “What is the shape of the Earth”. Prompt answers came up from various parts of the gathering. Everyone agreed that Earth is circular. One or two told “Spherical”. But Swami’s reply was a firm “NO”. Swami continued, “The line of the surface of earth may look spherical. But there are bulges like mountains and depths like oceans. So you cannot call it circular. But the man is now tampering with the very creation. They dig up the earth for materials for construction. And they create new hills and mountains in the form of skyscrapers. This definitely creates unbalance. Even a .00000000000001 alteration will create havoc in the surface of the earth. The change of seasons, floods, cyclones, The earth quakes are all the results of the tampering that are happening all over the world. How can we blame God for this? Unreasonable greed of man, becomes reasons for such unnatural havocs. Mother earth bears everything, with Divine fortitude.” Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba.
