The Omnipresence of Bhagavan Sri Sri Ram Thakur



Lot of incidents have been described by the various devotees & disciples of our Gurudev about His omnipresence.  At this moment, I can remember of an incident as told by Sri Rohini Mazumdar babu in his book named as “Sri Guru Sri Ramthakur” which goes like this.
Rohini babu had a habit of going to a club daily in the evening where he used to play some indoor games alongwith his other friends and club members.  Once when Sri Sri Thakur was residing at their home, he went to the club as usual where he became involved with his games very deeply and very soon it became dark. After the game was over, all of the club members along with him indulged in chatting and since the time was during winter, they felt an urge for some tea & subsequently ordered for the same.  The chit-chatting went on & slowly their discussions shifted to vulgar topics (here rohini babu mentioned that all of them were married and were fathers).  After completion of chatting when he returned home it was around 11.30 p.m. (normally he used to return by 8.30 p.m. daily) & when he entered his home he found that his wife, sister & Sri Sri Thakur were awake and were waiting for him. He became little embarrassed as to be so late in the night. Sri Sri Thakur was sitting on his bed & on seeing rohini babu his wife and sister went inside. Sri Sri Thakur called him and asked for him to be so late. When he replied as to be playing, Sri Sri Thakur literally scolded him as to be playing till late in the night!! He said “is this the time to play??” & then suddenly referred to the discussions what had taken place at the club!! He said “there is no need to feel as you have done something great or it is a matter of great pride by indulging in these discussions!! Instead these things pull down the humanity in you, I had never expected such kind of behaviour from you which is very disappointing” Rohini babu said “I was so dumb struck out of fear that I started sweating profusely even in that chilling winter season!!” Thakur is really antaryami!!
Another place Sri Sri Thakur was talking to a group of devotees at somebody’s home & outside that home one person came to meet Thakur but he started chatting with the owner of the house & for that they went to little far one place under a tree and both of them started smoking there.  While chatting, that person jokingly said that to meet a big judge, recommendation of his munsif is very much required & the owner of the house is the munsif, on which both of them laughed!! Sri Sri Thakur had prohibited this person earlier to visit him now but inspite of that he had came to see him!! After smoking & chatting both of them went inside the house to meet Gurudev. Sri Sri Thakur seeing that person became very angry and asked him why did he came here when he had asked him not to?? & then suddenly referring to the chatting taken outside the house said that if the judge is very influential & rich even the munsif also will not dare to take anybody to meet the judge!! Both of them became totally dumb struck and realised his omnipresence!!

Like this there are many incidents such as one fellow purchased some sweets thinking inside as Gurudev never eats anything & would only take a pinch out of these & then I will only eat them, but when he offered them to Gurudev, He rejected them by saying as how He can eat those already eaten sweets by that fellow which shows Sri Sri Thakur’s omnipresence again!! The food items offered to the portrait of Sri Sri Thakur were accepted by Him actually which He used to confirm later to that devotee by telling that salt was little less in the lentils or the fried rice dish offered was too hot to eat etc. thus glorifying His omnipresence!! Jai Sri Kaivalyanath!!
