Thread: Signs from God

  1. Signs from God

    I would like to relay a brief story and was wondering if anybody else has had a similar experience. I'll try to be brief.

    One night, my dad was sitting outside in the garden with his friend socialising and talking about old times, whilst me, my brother and sister were sitting inside watching the TV. All of a sudden, my dad calls out to us from the kitchen at the back of the house to come and see something.

    When we went into the back door in the kitchen, my dad told us to look up in the sky and what I saw left me awestruck. There was a low cloud above us with these glowing lights moving in and out of eachother. These lights weren't just random; they had a very distinctive pattern in the way they moved.

    My dad later told us that it was the birthday of Shri Krishna and that my dad had asked for a sign from Bhagwan. Any scepticism is totally understandable but I know what I saw with my own eyes that day.

    Vannakkam: There is an advertising gimmick used here in the west which involves 4 rotating beams. People see them, and go driving to try to find the source. (I got fooled once.) it usually leads you to a car dealership. They set it up on cloudy nights on purpose. Just a thought.

    Namaste:

    Consciousness is supreme and unlimited, very fluid and flexible. It is entirely possible for someone to be setting up a kleig light at a car dealership downtown and for Shree Shakti Devi to dance with the lights in the clouds the message of love from Lord Krishna for His beloved devotees on His birthday.

    I believe that experience is what matters in "signs" or other communications from the divine. If it feels like a message, it most likely is. I don't bet my life savings on it. But I do accept the darshan of God's divine grace revealed to me in the temple of my heart pranam.

    My (encircling) prayer of gratitude is my pradakshina.

    Thank you for sharing your prasad!

    Wow, I feel like a complete idiot but, you're right Yajvan.

    The Sun shines for us, the wind gives us air to breath, the moon lights up the night sky and great mountains reach above the clouds, I guess we're the only ones who make it different.

    Yes, for us we miss at times all the signs of the work of the Supreme. It is so unbelievable we take is as ~normal~. I think of us just floating though space, and I never - ever feel the earth move from here to there. I plant a tomato seed and I always get tomatoes. Never radishes or onions, but tomatoes each and every time.
    All the laws of nature so perfectly groomed and behind the scenes working every second of every day for billions of eons. Yet all of this wonder can be summed up in just a smile on a child's face.

    Re: Signs from God

    Namaste

    Once someone asked Sri Ramakrishna if God has all power, whether He could produce a yellow flower in the plant that produced only red flowers. Sri Ramakrishna instantly affirmed it. Next morning, on the branch of the plant amidst many red flowers, only one yellow flower was found.

    Namaste !!
    Indeed lucky are those whom God has chosen to display a sign or convery a message.
    On other thoughts, the messages may always be there, we are ignorant enough in our busy lives that we often overlook these messages.
    Blessed are those who are able are able to understand it

    Even this is a message from God!!
