Guruvayoorappan's own wish!

 

Sri Ramanujam, the pracharak and speaker of our Kendra thus writes:
During the recently concluded Udayastamana Saptaham at Guruvayoor, Hari and myself had the fortune of accompanying Sri Sri Swamiji to the temple to have the Lord's darshan.  The temple was heavily crowded on that particular day and we felt that having darshan was close to impossible. We stood in the outer 'Prakara' and were continuously chanting the Maha Mantra.
Hari and I told Sri Sri Swamiji that we shall talk to some officials to get special entry into the temple.  Sri Sri Swamiji replied that it was not necessary.  We tried to convince Him as the thronging temple crowd wouldn't let us take a further step.
Sri Sri Swamiji persisted his denial, saying that the Lord knew that Sri Sri Swamiji performed Nama Kirtan always and it is purely Guruvayoorappan's wish to either let us have darshan or not.
Just then to our surprise, out of nowhere, someone approached us and asked Swamiji 'darshanam aayo?' (did You have darsanam already?).
This person did not even wait for a response from Sri Sri Swamiji!  He took along Sri Sri Swamiji in for darshan through the special side entrance and let Him stay in the sanctorum as long as He wished!
The Lord Guruvayoorappan indeed chose to meet Sri Sri Swamiji, even as there were so many other thousands of devotees wishing to have Guruvayoorappan's Darshan!
