El Tiempo de Dios
Nos retrasamos cuando llegamos a la casa del anfitrión en Australia. Los devotos esperaron durante más de dos horas para cumplir con Swami. Las manecillas del reloj eran sólo un poco tímido de la medianoche como Swami entró en la casa más hermosa del huésped, enclavado en la cima de una colina en el entorno selvático de Murwillumbah un pueblo montañoso aborigen en el estado de Queensland.
"¡Oh! No has dormido todavía?", Preguntó Swami broma al ver a tantos devotos cantando una canción de bienvenida a él a esa hora.
"No Swami, no estamos sueño, estábamos esperando", respondió alguien sonriendo.
"¡Oh! ¿Soy muy tarde?", Preguntó Swami casi disculpándose. "No, Swami?", Alguien respondió. "¿Soy temprano?", Preguntó Swami nuevo.
"No, Swami!", Dijo otra persona. "Ah! Dios nunca es pronto ni tarde, se llega en el momento justo para todos. Incluso si quieres que venga temprano, no lo hará. Y si desea que Él llega tarde, eso no sucederá tampoco.
Dios viene a su vez a cada uno, que es el momento adecuado", dijo Swami.

God's Timing
We were delayed as we reached the home of the host in Australia. The devotees waited for more than two hours to meet Swami. The hands of the clock were just a bit shy of the midnight hour as Swami entered the most beautiful home of the host, nestled on top of a hill in the sylvan setting of Murwillumbah an aboriginal hilly town in Queensland state.
"Oh! You haven't slept still?", asked Swami playfully as He saw so many devotees singing a welcome song to Him at that late hour.
"No Swami, we are not sleepy, we were waiting for you", replied someone smilingly.
"Oh! Am I very late?", Swami asked almost apologetically. "No, Swami?", someone replied. "Am I early?", asked Swami again.
"No, Swami!", said someone else. "Ah! God is never early nor late, He comes at the right time to everyone. Even if you want Him to come early, He won't. And if you wish that He comes late, that won't happen either.
God comes at His time to each, which is the right time", said Swami.
What seemed like a sweet little conversation, turned out to be most poignant exposition on the ways of God, especially about when does He choose to come to a yearning soul is always the perfect time, God's time!
