A tribute to a feathered friend ~ The Story of FLIGHT, the Yellow-sided Conure

jgd appaji….

Jaya. Guru Datta Puttu Ji ! The video of our sweet darling Fight are very saddening . If the outsiders like feel this much , what about Pujya Appaji , who treated Fight with all love, compassion and warmth. When Sri Swamiji has so much concern for a soul which is physically attached for a small time, what about devotees like us who have been attached to Pujya Appaji for several years ? What would be the intensity of care that Appaji is taking for us every minute, every day and so many years ?? We are forever indebted to our Appaji ! Pranams at the lotus feet of Pujya Appaji !

Sri Swamiji with his infinite love & patience lets each devotee, whether human, animal or bird, worship & connect with Him in whatever way suits them best.

Flight, like a shooting star
Flew into Sri Swamiji’s life

Loved Sri Swamiji in his own special way
Staying close to Sri Swamiji’s heart
Sleeping in his nest under His beard

Whilst Hanuman utters Rama with each breath
Flight liked to be close to Sri Swamiji’s breath

His zest for life was unquestionable
Even the loss of a limb did not slow him down
An example to us all, on how to live our lives

This endearing devotee will forever live in our hearts
As a sterling example of a true devotee
