Special Blessings

For prasad on my birthday once many years ago, I wanted to make a special banana pudding. I stayed up all night stirring away before the pudding would ‘set'. When I saw Guru that morning at the track, immediately he let me see something special. All around him I could see light—like a furry coat—so clearly that I almost asked the person beside me if she could see it too. And even more surprising: the aura that I was seeing was pink—a warm, bright pink! I kept looking, expecting this to fade, but it was quite bright and clearly visible. Then Guru went over to the pudding prasad and looked at it, still meditating. I saw a line of light flowing down from him to the tray. This prasad was truly, truly blessed. Later I had a chance to tell Guru that he had given me a present and let me see his aura, and that it was pink! Guru sweetly said that his aura contains all the colours, and pink was one of them—such a special blessing.
