The Will of God will never take you to where the Grace of God will not protect you.
Santushta (pictured above with Swami Vishwananda) has experienced something very special indeed with Swami Vishwananda! He knows Swamiji for quite some time already and has once again brought Swami to Kenya (September 2010).
One evening, during dinner, Swamiji gave Santushta half of a very acidic fruit and said "Try it! It tastes good!" Swamiji himself ate the other half and made a rapt face and said "Ahhh sooo sweet! I love it!"
Santustha screwed his face at the taste of the sour fruit and asked Swamiji "Who are you to like something like that?!"
Swamiji: "Do you really want to know?"
Santushta: "Yes, why not?"
Swamiji: "Have you no fear?"
Santushta: "No, why should I?"
Swamiji then turned to him and told him: "Put your hand on my heart”!
Santushta laid his hand flat on Swamiji's heart. Then Swamiji said after a moment: "Take it”!
Santushta did not understand ---- So Swamiji repeated it, "Take it”!
Then slowly Santushta closed his hand (as if to take something from Swami's heart as instructed), and suddenly he felt something in his hand. He opened his hand and looked: there was a wonderful statue of Krishna!
Swamiji had just materialized a statue of a dancing Lord Krishna in Santushta's hand.
