SHORT DHARMIC STORY of the Morning 26/8/23:
One day Shivaji saw, from the terrace of his palace, his Gurudev SRI SAMARTHA RAMDAS was going around the streets with his begging bowl. Shivaji was surprised and could not understand why his Guru should beg when he himself had already placed all his resources at the disposal of his Gurudev. Shivaji ran to his Guru, prostrated before him, and asked him when he, the king and all the wealth are at his feet , why does he ask for Bhiksha.
SRI SAMARTHA RAMDAS ji, stretched his begging bowl towards Shivaji, and asked him for Bhiksha. Shivaji immediately took a paper and wrote something and put it in the bowl of his Guru. Swami ji opened the chit, which Briefly, conveyed that Shivaji had made a gift of his whole kingdom to Gurudev and he humbly solicited his Gurudev's blessing. The Guru just Moved on and the Next morning Ramdas called on Shivaji and asked him what he proposed to do with himself as he had disposed of his kingdom.
Shivaji prostrated himself before SRI SAMARTHA RAMDAS JI and said that he would be very happy and consider himself blessed if he should spend his life in his Gurudev's service.
SRI SAMARTHA RAMDAS JI took Shivaji along with him for BHIKSHA. Shivaji was embarrassed and uncomfortable to Beg and to eat the food that was begged from people.
Swami ji after finishing the meal, suddenly burst into laughter, and said, BHIKSHA is a rule for a Sanyasi, which would keep Ego at Bay.
SRI SAMARTHA RAMDAS JI said I am giving my entire Kingdom to you as your BHIKSHA, always remember, you ruling the country should make you humble as you are a Beggar, and gave his saffron Angavastra to him, which was made the flag of his kingdom.
Shivaji ruled the kingdom with all detachment and humility, sans ego, sticking on to KSHATRIYA DHARMA, with the PADUKA (Slippers) of his Guru on the throne🙏
