________________ Even the sea comes to touch his feet. Neha Verma Muscat I know it was a Monday because it was his "Maun". We all decided that we would take Guruji out for a picnic by the sea because Guruji loves the sea. Seven of us (Mama, Baba, Rhea, Anu Aunty, Pradeep Uncle and I) packed ourselves and our mats and picnic basket into 2 small cars ---very excited that we were going to spend time with Guruji at the beach. PDO beach is a small beach in a secluded cove in Qurm and perfect for Guruji because it is not crowded. It was around 4:30 pm- I remember that because Guruji had not yet eaten his dinner which he always has before sunset. The sky was overcast and the sea was very calm. We put out the mats and chatais on the sand and made a seat for Guruji to sit on, and served him his evening meal. It was a simple meal of soup and sandwiches and a salad of Fennel and Rocket leaves which he likes. After he finished his dinner, Guruji sat quietly by the sea and closed his eyes and meditated for a very long time. I saw that the sea which had been calm until then suddenly seemed energised and that the waves had started rising higher and higher. We were all sitting behind Guruji on the sand- all with our eyes closed and meditating. When I opened my eyes I noticed that a small portion of the water was heading towards Guruji, and seemed to be edging closer and closer to his feet. It did not come towards any of us, only towards Guruji. It kept coming forward till it soaked the edge of his robes.
