DIVINE LEELAS OF NEEB KARORI BABA
Journey to the South
In 1973 Maharaj traveled to South India with Sri Ma, Sri Jivanti Ma, Ramesh Sah, and many other devotees. They arrived in Madras on 9 January and went to stay at the Sindhi dharamshala. The rooms that Baba pointed at were locked, so all the luggage was placed on the veranda in front of them. When the devotees met the manager and requested him to get the rooms opened, the manager refused, saying that they were already reserved for a person coming from Vrindavan. He also made it clear that the other rooms were occupied and suggested that they seek accommodation elsewhere. When the devotees explained the situation to Baba, he insisted, "I will only stay in these rooms."
The devotees arranged some bedding on the veranda so that Baba could rest, but the manager arrived and expressed his displeasure. He asked them to vacate the veranda and then left. Still, Baba did not leave. He said, "Nobody will come for these rooms. Pay no heed to the manager." The day was drawing to a close, so the devotees once again requested the manager to open the rooms. At that very moment a telegram arrived from the person in Vrindavan requesting the manager to cancel his reservations. The manager then opened the rooms for Baba with pleasure.
While in Madras, Baba took the devotees to visit the Vaishnavi Devi temple, which is located about twenty-three kilometers away from the city. Two taxis were taken. Baba got into one taxi, and the devotees got into the second one. Baba's car usually led the others, but this time the devotees' car led. Consequently they passed the temple and drove on about nine kilometers further. Baba followed them until he reached a vast, barren, and desolate place and then stopped. The other taxi stopped too. Walking around, Baba said, "I did not realize, but we have passed the temple." In actuality Baba sanctified that piece of land by stopping there. They all got into the taxis again and drove back to the Vaishnavi Devi temple with Baba's taxi in the lead.
On 19 January 1984 Hukum Chand had Baba's murti installed on the very piece of land at which Baba and the devotees had stopped all those years before. Hukum Chand had not been with Maharaj when he and the devotees stopped there, nor had he heard about the trip. Still, he unknowingly chose the same site that Maharaj had sanctified years before to build the Veerapuram ashram and temples.

Hi.
ReplyDeleteJay Neem Karoli baba.
Today visited Neem Karoli Chennai based Ashram, (18th July 2017).
Found no Murti /Statue of Neem karori babaji was there, it was replaced by Hanuman ji murti. Disappointed but what to do, but happy to know that now babaji guru Hanuman ji murti/statue was build on that place. I heared Story from current priest/pandit that what was actually happened. He also told that in 2005 Two persons / bhagats of babaji took Murti and ash of babaji with them Sh. Hukam Chand and Sh. Arjun Das, who are residence of Egmore Chennai. I spent 3-4 hours there and found so much shanti /peaceful atmosphere but bad luck that Babaji didn't give the Darshan. Now next challenge is to find Hukam Chand (main person) and Arjun Das aggarwal to know about where is the Murti now?
In ashram premises /compound there is so many small and big temples of lord Kartike, Ganesha, Shiva, Durga ji, Lakshmi ji, Sarswati Mata, and Nav Graha (nine planets), and Hanuman ji.
Regards Ravinder Gupta ±91 9840215241 from Chennai Tamilnadu
(Photography not allowed in ashram, thanks management to not object as special case) Thanks to Sh. Kaushik Ganguly and Sh. Pavan Pandey to guide me the correct location of temple from distance through FB.
Jay Neem Karoli Baba ji
Babaji is avtar of Shri Hanumanji. He only knows his Leela. Jai babaji.
