Feeding a Flame With Water |
|

|
One day when Hanumanghar was under
construction, Maharaj was sitting at the puja
(place of worship) in Shivdutt Joshi's house at Kishanpur, Nainital. An
earthen lamp was burning near Baba and a small bowl containing water
and a spoon was before him. Many devotees were sitting by him talking
about havan (a ritual during which offerings are
thrown into fire). One devotee was describing how Adi Heriakhan Baba
performed havan
with water. Shivdutt's daughter Munni Devi said that while everybody
was listening with rapt attention, Baba was using the small spoon to
pour water onto the flame of the wick in the earthenware lamp. Whenever
he poured on the water, the flame rose higher.
