Darshan: Grace through the Eyes, by Coach Howard, FL, USA

Encounters with Dattatreya

I have been granted many miracles these past couple of years. I can tell you that when one’s desire is for others, the prayer will work just as Baba says. I would like to tell you that I am quite “learned” in spirtitual philosophy. My greatest influence up until meeting Baba has been Ramana Maharshi. I consider Sri Ramana as an authority on reality. He said that the only way to determine if a Guru is legit is by the amount of peace found in his or her presence and the respect one feels for the Guru. Well when I first saw Baba on Youtube, I immediately felt peace, the mind went still, and respect bubbled up. Of course, I still had doubts as that’s what the human mind is, doubt. The Divine Mind is faith, complete positivity. Anyway, during the Grace Light event on July 17, 2008, Baba was talking about the Middle East. I had a very negative thought pop into my mind; that the only solution is to bomb the you no what out of that place. Baba immediately gave me a look of disgust that I will never forget. It froze me in my tracks. I immediately repented and asked for forgiveness through my mind. That happening was the most significant part of the event for me. It showed me that Baba knows you inside and out, so you better check your thoughts. What a teaching, a simple “tough love” look. It froze my mind and sent a chill down my spine. During the break, I stayed in my seat staring into his eyes and 3rd eye center, there was no-mind! A true guru lives amongst us!
