Serve your parents and win them over

A YOUTH named Singh, from Hamirpur, had attended the Andhra darshan program, but his parents were against Baba. Running away from home, Singh came to Baba inDehra Dunon Sunday, June 28th. Before he arrived, his father’s telegram was received, asking Baba to send Singh back immediately.

“Why have you come here?” Baba asked him.

“I wish to stay with you,” the boy replied.

“I am pleased to hear it. Now tell me, will you carry out my wishes?”

“Surely, anything!” he replied.

“In that case, I ask you to return home, and every day place your head on your parents’ feet until they feel fed up with it and ask you to stop.”

“But they abuse you, Baba!” he exclaimed.

“By abusing me, they remember me and also test your love for me. You should learn to have forbearance. By tolerating their attitude and still showing your love for them, you will win them over. Do as I say; go home and serve your parents.”

Baba gave certain instructions to Singh, and sent him back to Hamirpur.
