Shri Nathji and Priya Nath passed the 23rd of June quietly in their rooms, Shri Nathji lecturing to Sahadeva in the full bloom of his Divine Glory. Even one man was audience enough for Shri Nathji. His divine waves were going out to the whole world from that one room at the hotel on his birthday, which was a special occasion for divine grave to be spread in the world, and especially in India.
As night approached, Shri Nathji, Priya Nath and Sahadeva went into the dining hall adjacent to the large drawing room and had their meals. When they were making their way out of the dining hall, Priya Nath suggested to Shri Nathji that they walk past through the drawing room.
As Shri Nathji entered the drawing room where the qawwaali was being held for the business magnates of the country, Priya Nath said to Shri Nathji:
Give these people a glimpse of your divine light!
And even as he said this, Shri Nathji’s face became filled with a brilliant glow. His personality took on the hue of a dazzling brilliance that made everyone turn his head in his direction. Cups of wine were left undrunk, raised halfway to the lips.
Vo jo hosho akal havaas thhe teri yoon nigaah ne urraa diye
Ke sharaabe sad kade aarzoo khume dil men thhee jo dhari rahi
The mind and the senses were all taken away by Thy glance,
The wine of desire that was in a hundred goblets, remained there, untouched.
The music in the room halted for a brief minute. The qawwaal stood up and bowed towards Shri Nathji. For a very brief second, the souls of all present received a spark of the divine. Much before they could recover from the experience, Shri Nathji was gone.
Stark materialism had been given a glimpse of God.
