Recently, I had the opportunity to attend an advanced course with Gurudev in Washington DC. While sightseeing before the course, I felt drawn to a Kashmiri shop at the Union Station. There, I saw a beautiful shawl and immediately thought of gifting it to Gurudev.
When Gurudev arrived at the AOL HQ, I presented him with the shawl, which he took gently. The following day, during the course, I noticed Gurudev wearing what I believed to be the same shawl. However, I wasn’t completely certain. As Gurudev was leaving the hall at the end of the day, I prayed earnestly, asking him to let me know if it was the same shawl. To my surprise, Gurudev turned around, walked directly toward me, and confirmed that it was indeed the same shawl I had gifted him the day before. This experience was a beautiful reminder of Gurudev’s care for all of us. While there are countless stories to tell about Gurudev’s love and compassion, this one will always hold a special place in my heart.
