Chapter – 3
Khudhiram went to Gaya to
perform the ancestral rite. During this
period of time Chandradevi had to witness many surprising events took place in
her life, she described a marvelous incident to Khudhiram after returning from
Gaya, she said that she had a dream in that a deity with brilliant rays found
sleeping on her side, she thought it was somebody playing a wicked trick on
her. So she got scared, soon she found there was no
one from outside and the door was safely locked from inside. She described one more incident happened, she
was standing close to Shiva shrine, a divine light initiated from the Linga and
put her in a great shock, she fallen
unconscious. In return Khudhiram
described the incident took place in Gaya, he came to take rest after finishing
rituals of homage to ancestors, he has fallen asleep and had a dream, in that he
was standing in a shrine, all the ancestors were standing around him with
folded hands, inside the shrine there was a divine personality sitting on the
throne said “ Khudhiram, I am highly pleased in your devotion, I will be born
as your child and I will accept your services.” After listening to this, he was
too excited and stunned, he said “ Bhagavan, kindly do not give me this
fortune, if you take birth in a poverty
stricken twice-born person’s house you may have to go through several
difficulties in your life, therefore kindly bless me with your Dharshan.” But the divine
personality did not heed to the pleas of Khudhiram, He said “ Do not get scared
Khudhiram, whatever you feed I will accept it happily,” Khudhiram had no words
to say, he kept silent for a few minutes.
He explained all those with great enthusiasm after that Kdhudiram said
to his wife not to tell about this to anyone, whatever happens, will definitely
with the grace of Raghubir, now onwards everything going to be fine in
the family. In the home of Khudhiram,
Chandradevi and Ramkumar were always surrounded by divine incidents like
this. Supreme Lord had boundless mercy
on this family.
