One quiet afternoon in Chhapaiya, Bhaktimata finished nursing her infant son, Ghanshyam, and gently placed him in his cradle (parnu). Thinking he was fast asleep, she went into the kitchen to clarify some butter (ghee).
However, Ghanshyam was not asleep. Little Ghanshyam sat up in his cradle and looked around. He noticed his pacifier (chusani) had fallen onto the floor, quite a distance from the cradle. At only two-and-a-half months old, an ordinary infant would have just cried, but Ghanshyam did something extraordinary. He climbed down from the cradle, crawled across the floor on all fours, retrieved his pacifier, and climbed back into the cradle as if nothing had happened.
Shortly prior to this, a man named Ramdayal Kayastha arrived at Dharmadev’s house. He and Dharmadev were sitting under the shade of a tamarind tree in the courtyard, chatting. Ramdayal happened to glance through the door and was stunned to see the tiny infant climbing out of the cradle, crawling to pick up his pacifier, and then climbing back in.
Amazed, Ramdayal asked Dharmadev, “How old is your son?”
Dharmadev replied calmly, “He is two-and-a-half months old.”
Ramdayal was shocked. “This is no ordinary child! He must be a Dev or God himself. No infant of this age could possess such agility.” Driven by curiosity and devotion, he walked up to the cradle. As he looked at the child, Ghanshyam gave him a faint, mysterious smile and suddenly released an overwhelming, divine white light (Tej) from his body. The brilliance was so intense and peaceful that Ramdayal stood transfixed. In an instant, Ghanshyam withdrew the light back into himself, leaving Ramdayal in a state of bliss.
This prasang has been documented by Sadguru Shree Bhumanand Swami in the 5th Tarang of Shree Ghanshyam Lilamrut Sagar.
