A SECOND ANECDOTE

In the late sixties of the last century, many volunteers were involved with the construction of Swami’s College in Anantapur. It was hard and non-stop work for over eight hours a day. The volunteers were mainly office workers and not used to strenuous manual labour; yet they willingly did it as an offering to Swami. One day, Swami visited Anantapur to inspect progress. He was very pleased with what He saw, and then asked all the volunteers to assemble before Him. He then said, “All of you raise your hands.” The volunteers were puzzled by the command but obeyed. Some raised both their hands while others raised only one hand. Swami then asked every one to raise both their hands. Everyone did.
