Car in Whirlpool of faith


I’m practicing my DSN follow-up @ RTCC, Indira Nagar, Bangalore. I normally drive my 2 Wheeler for the early morning follow-up since I can zip thru 9kms in 15mins. On 23_april, I was woken up by a Heavy Thunderstorm which was much stronger than the previous Night Down pour. It was already 5.30am & I wished to reach the RTCC Centre about 9kms away from my Residence.When I looked out of my Apartment Balcony, I could feel the Intensity of Rainfall & the water logging around my Building.

Finally, I managed to drive my Maruti Esteem, a Low Ground clearance car into the Outer Ring Road. Then I realized that The Road was completely jammed with Cars, Buses & Lorries Waiting for Water Logged Cars & Buses to be cleared from the Railway under Pass near Marthahalli. I managed to Squeeze through the Jammed Cars & reach the entry point of Underpass when I was Shocked to find even a BMTC Bus broken down in the Water Pool. The Car in front of me was an ALTO & he was also stuck in the Water pool. Now, that I have decided to drive through this Route, I just looked @ Guruji’s Portrait in my Car’s Dash Board & Prayed that I’ve to clear this Wave Pool to reach the Centre for the Follow-up session. My Car was splashed up to the Bonnet and Side Window panes with the Waves from other Moving Heavy Trucks & was about to get Chocked. I somehow managed to Keep my cool & Restart the Engine & kept my faith & managed to cross the Water Logged Underpass when so many other Tall & Sturdier Vehicles were Chocked & Broken down.

In spite of my Ailing Car’s Health, I managed to swim through the Whirlpool & reached the Center to attend my Weekly Long Kriya. I feel car was not in logged water but in the whirlpool of faith that's why it could swim through.

Jai Guru Dev!
