25th AUGUST.

When we lose something, our feeling for the loss is considerable. What would be the severity of the feeling if we lose our first child? It will be heart-wrenching. We lost our first child and we suffered the loss for more than a year. 

We got consolation only when the second child was in the offing. This time, we took the maximum precaution to avoid any eventuality. 


I decided to be with my wife at the time of delivery and to take her to the doctor well in time without leaving her under the care of a midwife. 


On the early morning of 24th Aug 1976, she developed labor pains. We took her to the hospital. As the doctor said the delivery would be only by the next morning we brought her home.  During the night, the contractions were frequent. We took her again to the hospital at 4 AM on the next day. 


25th Aug is a special day for me. In the early hours of 25th Aug 1976, my father and myself were anxiously awaiting near the window of the labor room of a small maternity clinic in Srirangam, Tiruchy, praying to Lord Ranganathar to bless my wife for safe delivery.


We prayed that no untoward incident should take place. My father and myself were looking at our watches for the delivery to take place at an auspicious time. I am unable to express in words the tension, anxiety, and agony, I experienced at that time. 


Finally, the cry of the baby came through the windows of the hospital as if Lord Krishna was blowing his conch Panchajanya. The nurse came out and informed us that it was a baby girl. The star was Magam which is a good one. God is great. 


The delivery was normal. I am now a proud father of a cute little girl. I have to thank her for making me a father because only the child makes the parent. That little girl is now 49 and she has two wonderful sons and she is leading a great life in the US.


Every 25th Aug, all the people wish her happy birthday, but I thank her for making me a father. Long live my dear daughter with good health, success, happiness and prosperity.

CONCEPT OF GOD !!!

In a mother’s womb were two babies. One asked the other: “Do you believe in life after delivery?”


The other replied, “Why, of course. There has to be something after delivery. Maybe we are here to prepare ourselves for what we will be later.”


“Nonsense,” said the first. “There is no life after delivery. What kind of life would that be?”


The second said, “I don’t know, but there will be more light than here. Maybe we will walk with our legs and eat from our mouths. Maybe we will have other senses that we can’t understand now.”


The first replied, “That is absurd. Walking is impossible. And eating with our mouths? Ridiculous! The umbilical cord supplies nutrition and everything we need. But the umbilical cord is so short. Life after delivery is to be logically excluded.”


The second insisted, “Well I think there is something and maybe it’s different than it is here. Maybe we won’t need this physical cord anymore.”


The first replied, “Nonsense. And moreover, if there is life, then why has no one ever come back from there? Delivery is the end of life, and in the after-delivery, there is nothing but darkness and silence and oblivion. It takes us nowhere.”


“Well, I don’t know,” said the second, “but certainly we will meet Mother and she will take care of us.”


The first replied “Mother? You actually believe in Mother? That’s laughable. If Mother exists then where is She now?”


The second said, “She is all around us. We are surrounded by her. We are of Her. It is in Her that we live. Without Her, this world would not and could not exist.”


Said the first: “Well I don’t see Her, so it is only logical that She doesn’t exist.”


To which the second replied, “Sometimes, when you’re in silence and you focus and listen, you can perceive Her presence, and you can hear Her loving voice, calling down from above.”


Maybe this was one of the best explanations of the concept of GOD.


– This beautiful parable is from,


" Your Sacred Self ",  by Dr.  Wayne Dyer.
