THE ILLITERATE BRAHMANA




There is an account of a devotee who was illiterate.
But he was seen everyday sitting and reading "Bhagavad gita."
Sometimes the book was upside down and he was crying.
Mahaprabhu passed by one day
and asked the man why he was crying?
The man said, "My spiritual master has ordered me to read one chapter of "Bhagavad gita" everyday. I cannot read."
"Oh, so that is why you are crying?"
"On no sir. I sometimes cry when I think of how
the Supreme Lord Himself acted as Arjuna's charioteer.
He acted as Arjuna's personal friend and servant.
Arjuna was ordering Krishna, "Go here. Go there.
Drive like this. Drive like that. Take me here or there.
My Lord is so wonderful."
