Flight lands with slogan “Simhastha ke Anand ki Jai”
Bhopal. The flight from Indore to New Delhi on May 21 was engulfed by spirit of Simhastha. May 21 was the day when Simhastha at Ujjain concluded with last Shahi Snan. Passengers returning from Simhastha boarded the plane with Tilak applied on their foreheads. Many of them had placed packets of Prasad and Kshipra water’s canes in the cabin with due respect.
A surge of pleasant surprise ran through passengers when they saw Swami Chidanand boarding the flight. Soon after, Swami Devakinandan Maharaj entered the cabin and was allotted seat number 26. On his entry, other passengers, specially women stood up in respect. The seer reciprocated their gesture saying ‘Radhe Radhe’. Soon after taking his seat, the seer asked people coming from Simhastha to raise their hands. Over 70 percent passengers on the flight raised their hands. On this, Maharaj chanted, ‘Vrindavan Bihari Lal Ki Jai’ and passengers repeated it in chorus.
After this, passengers started sharing their Simhastha experiences. Some were happy over having Darshan of Lord Mahakal and taking the holy dip along with his Gurus. Excellent arrangements during Simhastha were also being naturally referred to during these discussions. A section of passengers was all praise for sanitary arrangements and some lauded use of information technology. They lavished praise for special ghats for disabled persons, spiritual expression in addresses of Chief Minister Shri Shivraj Singh Chouhan, grandeur of Kshipra Arti and giving importance to issues of environment, sanitation and other social concerns by the state government and Swami Chidanand. Almost everyone seemed to be satisfied with Simhastha arrangements and excellent arrangements and management by administration and government.
Soon, indicator showed plane’s landing at Delhi. As soon as the plane landed, passengers started taking selfies with both the Swamis and seeking their blessings. Thus, this plane journey concluded with unison chanting ”Simhastha ke Anand ki Jai’.
