Lucky Me!

This is a small incident which happened, when I went for the Pancha Maha Bhoota Kshetra trip with Guruji. We were travelling in the bus and the bus had mic for announcements, bhajans. However the mic was not cordless so we had to go to the first row of the bus (almost near the driver seat) to make an announcement or to sing a bhajan. That day morning I went to share what Guruji spoke in Telugu at Kalahasti.

I finished translating and was coming back to my seat, when the driver put a real suddent break. In no time I was flat on my back in between the two columns of the bus. It was a hard fall. But to my surprise and to the surprise of the fellow passengers I got up like a spring. Really. No bruises, nothing happened. It was as though I got up from a flower bed. I felt grateful. And I thought, ofcousre I am with Guruji -this is so obvious - He caught me from falling.

But today after almost two weeks of returning from the trip - I was watching a TV show and came across a guest on the show, who injured his spinal cord during a sport and is paralysed to a great degree. Ofcourse he is helping many now and is an insipration and hope for lot of children.

Then once again this incident came up in my mind and felt grateful at the thought of how I was saved, And how I have been taken care every minute from so many situations, events and people - some known and mostly unknown.

When ever one 'feels' lucky truly from the heart, it is quite fulfilling. This is one of those moments. Lucky me! :-)
