Everything Bows To The Divine Lord
Tom Closser
I was sitting toward the rear of the room. There
was not a lot of space. I was very emotional. I had tears in my
eyes, the yogic tears that occur at
times when sitting with our Master that seem like a purification
of the area around the eyes. Because space was cramped there,
when Avatar Adi Da entered the Hall, I didn't bow all the way
down to the floor and I raised my head so I would not interfere
with the person in front of me (and so I would not have my head
sat on!).
For this reason, I was also probably the first devotee in the room to look up after bowing. Adi Da
was still moving, settling into His chair at the front of the room. There were very full arrangements of flowers on both sides of
His seat.
The flowers were literally bending toward Adi Da!
They were obviously
drawn to the Master, their stems bending. They were acknowledging
His Presence, as were the human devotees in the room. I can't remember
for sure if Adi Da acknowledged the flowers.
After a few moments, the flowers
straightened up to their original position, even as the human devotees in the room were raising their heads and straightening up after bowing to the Master.
Years later, I told the Master this story and He replied, "Tcha".
