Experience

O

nce, Pujyashree visited Bhadran to meet the celibate brothers. They never got
enough time to be with Pujyashree, so they decided to go on a picnic with him.
Therefore, many questions arose: Where shall we go? How shall we go?
Someone suggested that there was an 'ashram' at Vasad village, where they could have
the picnic. On the instruction from an Aptputra, one of the celibates went and brought
details of that 'ashram' and also said that good arrangements could be made there for
Pujyashree's stay.
How many rooms were there? How many persons per room allowed? What was
the tariff per room? Was there any chemist nearby? Was there a hospital nearby? If they
wanted bottled water, would it be available? Was there any problem of mosquitoes? Was
AC room available for Pujyashree? What were the charges for meals? Would they serve
extra sweets? If so, what were the charges?
Thus,were some of the 28 questions the Aptputra put to the celibate, who was
dumbfounded and remained there gaping and wide eyed at the Aptputra. Thereafter, the
Aptputra explained that it was only common sense to ask these questions, and so he told
the celibate brother a story that explained common sense to the celibate.
