SRI SAMARTHA RAMDAS & SHIVAJI

SRI SAMARTHA RAMDAS

Once SHIVAJI MAHARAJ was constructing a fort & thousnads of workers were carrying out the construction work.SHIVAJI came there to supervise the work.When he saw thousands of workers laboring for him , an egoistic thought came to his mind that he is looking after  the welfare of all these people.

       SAMARTHA RAMDAS came to know about this thought & he came near SHIVJI .There was a stone lying nearby, RAMDAS told a worker to break the stone.When the top portion of the stone was broken open,a hollow pouch filled with water was found & a frog jumped out !All those who witnessed this were wonder struck !

      

        RAMDAS told SHIVAJI ," SHIVABA, what is this your play ! Inside the stone,a hollow with water, in that a frog.How nicely you are protecting, other than you who can do this !" These ironical words had its effect on SHIVAJI who folded his hands & told his Guru,"Swamiji, pardon my ignorance, if I have committed a mistake."

       

         RAMDAS told SHIVAJI ,"GOD IS PROTECTING ALL, we are only for name sake,through us God is feeding those who are working with us. A false ego had entered your mind which is not good. This I wanted to clarify to you."
