I have a very interesting experience yesterday. I had just finished reading Bringers of the Golden Ball by Robert March, which is about my guru, Sri Amma Bhagavan. The Golden Ball is the form that the energy of the deeksha takes when it is passed to another. Apparently, some people have been able to see this, most likely those who are more or less clairvoyant. These are some photos [coming later] that people have taken during deeksha processses, which I was also looking at yesterday. I had been telling Tommy about it, so the Golden Ball had been on my mind.
Tommy had a doctor's appointment, so we left the house around 12:30pm. Part of the drive to the doctor's office is a road through some empty farm fields, so for a while we were driving along a road seemingly out in the middle of nowhere. I don't know who saw it first, but we both spotted out in an empty field by the road ... a Golden Ball! Actually, it was a child's rather large toy rubber ball, but the sun glinting off the thing out there in the field showed that it had a definite GOLD color -- NOT yellow. We looked at each other, and as I pulled the car over to get out, Tommy smiled and said nothing as I walked out to get it.
Here it is, sleeping peacefully next to my altar and Spot, one of my fur children.
To put a perfect cherry on top of this cool little treat, I dreamed about Bhagavan last night. In the dream, I seem to remember him laughing and holding out the golden rubber ball to me as a gift.
Whether I created this incident through some quantum trick of the mind-universe connection, or whether Bhagavan actually gave me the ball as a magical present, I have no clue. I do know that my life has been more like an episode of Bewitched since I got my first deeksha, and as each of these synchronous events occur, I'm losing my desire to continually attempt to find a logical explanation for things like this. I'm beginning to see just how magical a universe we all live in!
