From Holland to the Holy Land of PrasanthiThis is the story of how Swami drew Mr Ravinder Puri from Holland to His lotus feet in the early 1980s. More than Bhagawan’s omniscience or omnipotence, it was His irresistible love that pulled Mr Puri back to Puttaparthi year after year. And with every visit, his longing to be close to Him and to serve Him with all his heart only grew deeper.In the 1990s, Bhagawan blessed him with the opportunity to take part in the construction of the North Indian Canteen in Prasanthi Nilayam, along with other sacred projects.Each chance to serve became a rung in his spiritual ladder. Every opportunity Swami gave him came with its own tests and challenges - moments meant to deepen his yearning, purify his devotion, and strengthen his bond with the Lord.There was a tender moment when Swami lovingly told him, “You can never know how much I love you.” This gradual, sweet discovery of Swami’s boundless love is the essence of Mr Puri’s beautiful journey.
