Chapter - 41 Summary
During the construction of the Sarangpur temple, a heavy stone was being lifted when six ropes broke, leaving it hanging on just one rope. Everyone became afraid that it would fall.
Swamishri arrived and assured that the stone would not fall. He asked Soma Bhagat to climb up and tie the ropes again. Though it was very dangerous, Soma Bhagat had complete faith in Swamishri’s words.
He climbed onto the stone and securely tied all the ropes, then safely came down and bowed to Swamishri.
This incident revealed Swamishri’s divine power and the devotee’s unshakable faith.

Yogi Swami was with Swamishri and used to sing devotional songs early morning. One day he sang that all 68 holy places reside at the feet of a true saint, which Ranchhod Patel doubted.
That night, Ranchhod Bhagat saw a divine cow come, bow at Swamishri’s feet, and disappear. He realized that the 68 holy places had come in the form of the cow.
He accepted his mistake and understood Swamishri’s greatness.
Swamishri had a nature free from attachment and hatred, always appreciating others and seeing their virtues.
