 The beginning or the end of the queue of devotees to have Bhagavan’s darshan could not be seen. The lineup was so long. Sri Swamiji said, “I really would love to have a closer darshan of Sri Guruvayurappan. But, you all know that I don’t prefer crowds.” Saying this, Sri Swamiji sat near a pillar in the temple premises. Devotees who were with Sri Swamiji thought that they should request somebody’s help to take Sri Swamiji alone to have a closer darshan. Sri Swamiji knew what was going on in their minds and stopped that thought immediately. Sri Swamiji does not like doing that.

He happily started doing Mahamantra kirtan in the prakAra with child-like enthusiasm and energy. Sri Swamiji said, “Sri Guruvayurappan knows everything! Won’t He know that I am sitting here, thinking all about Him and singing His nAma? He will certainly indicate to us that He knows everything” and continued the sankirtan. Preparations were going on for Seeveli. On one side there were elephants and on the other side a flood of devotees, there was so much going on there.

It would have only been five minutes since Sri Swamiji had said that. A person doing kainkarya at the temple emerged through the massive crowd of people, and came straight to Sri Swamiji. Without any hesitation, he took the right hand of Sri Swamiji and pressed something in his hand. He came closer to Sri Swamiji and said, “Guruvayurappan who is inside the temple asked me to give this to you.” He went back. While Sri Swamiji opened his hand he saw a hot appam that had just been offered to Sri Guruvayurappan as naivEdyam.

Little Krishna had sent the prasAdam that He had accepted, to Sri Swamiji. You can imagine how Sri Swamiji would have felt at that very moment.
