Swami Sarvotamananda was delivering a lecture to the gathering. In course of the lecture, he was many a times addressed as Shreesh by his colleauge.
During the discussions, I had a chance of asking him a question too.
After the end of the lecture,we moved out for a cup of tea. Robin also had a question for him.So,we went to Swamijee again .
We left finally after having our doubts clarified. But Shukla still had some questions after the spiritual session,so I started narrating a story about a similar IIT PhD ,Shreesh Jadhav-the guy with whose inspiring story I started my blog with ,to Shukla and that was only when Robin told me that Swamijee only is Shreesh Jadhav.
I reacted late and after walking a few meters only,I realized that here he was-one of the heroes of my life and one among the very few alive. I decided to go back and meet him again.On my way back to LTC, a car passed by me from the opposite direction.
So,gone was the hero with whom this blog was started.
I always dreamt of going back to Kolkata and meeting Shreesh Maharaj( Click here ).
And here he was....came down to Pilani from Kolkata.
The consolation, though, is that I met him in person and spoke to him.
Just 4 hours back,while watching a horror movie,Anshul was saying in reference to a scene that in these kind of panicky situations our body's biological mechanisms are 10 times the normal and hence the performance 1 by 10 times the normal. I contradicted saying it was the opposite.That, this was what separated humans from myriad other form of lives/races-Their ability to deliver when the very existence is at stake or when the situations are very demanding. While delivering this Gyaan, not to say, I was feeling proud to belong to the race too. :)
And here was I, after knowing that Swamijee is a B.E.,M.E. and PhD from IITK and the guy sitting next to him calling him Sheeresh many a times, unable to figure out or rather say envisage that he only is Shreesh Jadhav.
I hope thats the Height of BAD LUCK.
Or, maybe its not. The pinnacle would have been had I missed the lecture in the first place. :)
