Narayana Baba
​

To be human is to be beautifully flawed.

I was running and a beautiful white monkey grabbed my hand. 

 

He looked at me with his beautiful golden brown eyes & said, “You can jump higher than you think you can!” 

 

We soared high above the castle walls.  As we ascended up & up we passed through many colored silks. 

 

Finally, we landed on a rocky dirt road.  He disappeared & I walked alone at an easy pace down the road.  I came to a large cave.

 

In front of the cave Neem Karoli Baba was sitting in animal skins in the guise of the horned greek god Pan.  He motioned me to sit with him. 

 

When I sat I found myself surrounded by at least 10 Neem Karoli Baba’s in the guise of Pan.   
He held out a chelam for me to smoke.  “No thank you Baba!  
My Guru told me not to smoke.” 

 

He immediately slapped me on the back, “Oh, we’re all just baadmaash.  But, it doesn’t matter!  All that matters is our pure love for God!…   I’m going to give you the blessing power of Hanuman now!”  

 

He then put his thumb firmly into my eye.  

I awoke feeling the pressure of his holy thumb in my eye.
