A Dog’s Devotion
A dog came along with the mutt to all its camps from the year 1927. It was an intelligent dog that did not go near ablutions. It would stay near the mutt during night and protect the cattle and materials from getting robbed. It would eat only the food given in the mutt and would not accept any food from anybody else. Hence, Swamigal would enquire everyday if the dog has taken food. When Swamigal traveled in the palanquin from place to place, this dog would walk under the palanquin. If the palanquin got stopped in the middle by devotees, the dog would move outside the crowd and wait. Sometimes, it would even walk between the legs of the mutt’s elephant. If the security in the mutt was lax for some reason, it would guard the mutt’s premises. If the person who usually fed it forgot to do so for some reason, it would starve for the day. Once it got separated from Swamigal, but soon came running to him. Since that day, it would not eat food without having darshan of our Swamigal.
