It is not often that we get the opportunity to be in someone like Swami’s company. Some people search their entire lives to try and be close to a soul as great as his. Someone who can give us guidance and love on a level we read about or sit in meditation trying to reach.
It is not about following him, bowing at his feet wanting to always be around him. Those are all external shows of devotion. Yes it is an amazing boon to be in his presence and touch his feet, as the Eastern scriptures say it can wash you of all sin.
But it s about following his message when you are not around him, it is about truly understanding what his message is in your heart.
So who is Swami, well one can really write so much and share so much. But it is about finding out for yourself, looking inside your heart and understanding it from there. If you try and come to the answer from your mind you will never be able to comprehend.
When we come with expectations, he breaks them for us to free us. When we come with judgements he shows us how move past them, just as Jesus did with his followers. He did not try and make them dependant on him rather he began to lead them gentle off there crutches of needing and onto the road of standing on their own to feet.
I have had the honour of meeting two other great spiritual leaders, they were amazing but my love for Swami is something I have never known. My heart was dry and full of sadness, I had forgotten how to love from my heart, that is something that no human should endure as that is our core purpose here on this earth.
That is what we come down to fully experience giving and receiving unconditional love. Swami gave that back to me like he did so many others. He did it without wanting anything or judging you.
How many of us can truly say we are ready to do that or can actually do that towards others, very few.
Someone looked at me the other day and asked me a question and all I can say is there is so much more going on down here on earth at the moment then most people can fathom or understand.
When you open your heart and love your fellow humans from your heart with unconditional love, this experience changes for the better. Suddenly you have no judgments or conditions. You begin to accept everyone for who they are and where they are in their lives.
Suddenly you begin to live the message Swami has been giving us all along.
