Episode 111
Blessings of Kalpana
A few months back (first week of April) early in the morning around 5 or 5.30 AM UAE time, Geeta and Kalpana were chatting on WhatsApp…
Geeta asked Kalpana what Unni Kanna was doing and asked her about His playfulness.
Suddenly Kalpana felt pressure on her forehead as well as on her chest.
I have specified earlier that whenever something important or divine is going to happen Kalpana has this type of pressure.
When she looked up, above her bed, she could see some divine figures floating. She immediately sat on the bed wondered who these Devatas were. She explained the same to Geeta.
Kalpana was unable to understand who these Divine beings were. Geeta got excited and asked her to ask them who they were.
When Kalpana questioned them in her mind, one of the Devatas came forward touched her forehead and said ‘LORD INDRA’. A few minutes later all of them disappeared.

From that day onwards, UAE experienced very good rains for about 2 weeks.
Geeta was discussing about a devotee who can see Devi Maa. As soon as she started describing the form of Devi Maa…
In front of her…
Kalpana could see Devi Maa wearing a red saree with gold print and with long flowing curly hair. Her back was towards Kalpana.

Geeta immediately messaged the devotee to verify if it was the same form the devotee was seeing. The devotee with a lot of enthusiasm indicated it was in fact the same Devi who was making Her presence felt in their house.
When Kalpana was about to pose Her a question, Devi shook Her head in a way signifying not to ask. Taking cue from it Kalpana kept quiet. Before disappearing, Devi Maa touched Kalpana’s shoulder and blessed her.
Whilst all this was going on, Kalpana could also see Kanna sitting cross legged next to her, playing His golden flute.

He was holding Kalpana’s hand and she could feel Kanna drawing some figures on her palm.
Geeta in the meantime asked a few questions to which Kanna wrote replies in Malayalam on Kalpana’s hand.She could see the words forming and disappearing on her palm in quick succession in response to the questions. Her palms had tickling sensation, when she told Him it was tickling, He just ignored and continued writing.

Geeta in her enthusiasm asked Kanna if He was ready to come to her house. She then described how she would take care of Him –bathing Him, decorating, feeding and in general taking care of Him as her own baby.
Hearing this Kanna immediately wrote on Kalpana’s hand ‘SUNDARAM, ATI SUNDARAM’.

Kalpana has Sri Meru in her home. She worships Devi Maa by putting kumkum on it daily. (Many of us do the same except for those who are initiated on Navaavarana puja).
Once the Meru is completely covered with Kumkum and mostly on a Friday, Kalpana cleans it by holding it under the tap.

One Friday while doing so, Kalpana could see Devi Maa sitting on top of the Meru enjoying the bath given by her. Devi Maa was wearing a traditional dress worn by Kerala women (mundum-neriyathum). She had long thick curly hair which was open. She was not wearing any ornaments, as if ready for the bath.
Sri Venkateswara Vratam:
As you all know, Kalpana does the full Sri Venkateswara vratam every Pournami. This month was the completion of her 8th year.
Since December 2018, due to some unavoidable reasons, Kalpana was only reading the Sri Venkateswara astotram and stories.
However a few days back, in her dream she saw that her fridge was filled with coconuts (half broken as if they were offered to Bhagwan).
She asked Kanna the meaning of this dream, for which He asked her to do the complete vratam.
While doing the vratam, she offers five coconuts to Swamy for each of the five stories.
Thinking that Swamy wants her to do the complete vratam, this month (June 2019) on pournami, she did the whole vratam and offered 5 coconuts as is usually done.
When she lifted her head while reading the stories, she could see Swamy standing in front of her and blessing.

In addition, Kanna was also showing funny faces when she was reading the stories of the vratam.
All the family members observed a strange glow around the puja room on this day. Probably Kanna was happy that she did the complete vratam after a long time. It was His way of showing happiness.
Kalpana prayed with gratitude to Swamy asking for ‘Sarve Jana Sukhino Bhavantu’.
