After this discussion that happened between me and my wife, in just 2 days, the first contribution of Rs.2000 started coming in from an unknown Rayar devotee. Taking into account the recent discussion that my wife and I had, this message from Rayar was interpreted by both of us as Rayar's response to our worry on the finances.... Subsequently after this incident, every weekend, Rayar is making sure that the contributions are coming in from different sources at different levels for the project to start.
Along similar lines, a few days back at the start of this week, I was sitting in meditation in front of Rayar in the same mutt that I frequent almost daily.... I got a call on my mobile from a very close relative of mine and at that position that I was in, I didn't want to take the call and disconnected it. After finishing my normal darshan and coming out of the mutt, I returned the call to my relative only to be told that his mother has expressed a desire to donate in kind for the expenses of the 'gho-shala' - for the number of cows and calves that is going to be present in the gho-shala.
Rayar being the 'ever giving kamadhenu' for all mortal souls like us, seems to have decided that the first donation in kind for HIS new place of stay has to be the 'kamadhenu' itself!!!!
The very next day, I get a call from the same relative that he will personally take care of the expenses for the moolavar/utsavar moorthys of the various deities that are being planned in this temple.
At some points in time, we are scared on the kind of responsibility that Rayar has entrusted on us but all these kind of repeated experiences is making our belief in HIM more stronger and also remind us that HE HIMSELF WILL TAKE CARE OF THIS ACTIVITY BY MAKING US AS MERE TOOLS. Sometimes, I feel in awe of not knowing what is it that we have done to be given this honor and responsibility by Rayar...
