Will You Have Tea?


During the Kumbha Mela at Prayag in 1966, Maharaj camped at Jhusi, on the other side of the sangam. Late one night Maharaj's durbar was still going strong. Brahmachari Baba whispered into the ear of another devotee that it would be good if everyone could have some tea, for it was quite cold. There was tea and sugar but no milk. Just then Baba said, "Will you have tea? Take a bucket with you and fetch milk from the Ganga. Tell Mother that I am taking milk and will return tomorrow." Brahmachari Baba immediately obeyed him. As soon as he came back with the bucket full of Ganges water, Baba told him to cover it. Reminding Brahmachari sometime later, Baba said, "Why don't you prepare tea now?" Brahmachari immediately put water on to boil but was feeling anxious about how he would make the tea without milk. When the water had boiled, he lifted the cover of the bucket and found that it was full of milk. Everyone enjoyed hot tea on that cold winter night and was amazed at Baba's lila. The next day when milk was brought to the camp, Baba got one bucketful poured into the Ganges.
