Young IPS in Parthi

The other day met one young boy while going to Ganesh Temple. He was talking to the Sevadal at the VIP gate of Sai Kulwant Hall. Seeing me, he asked if I worked in the Trust. Getting a positive response, he started requesting me to accept the gold medal in his hand and place it at the Samadhi as he had to leave for Bangalore immediately. He mentioned that it was only His grace which had gotten him... the Gold Medal and he wanted to express his gratitude. I appreciated his sincerity and mentioned that it reminded me of the day I had got my gold medal and had offered it to Him. He later revealed that he was from Mehboobnagar and had got selected in IPS. I mentioned that his sincere efforts and feelings had already reached Him and me physically placing the medal would do no good. I requested him to come another day for few hours and offer the medal himself as that would make Swami happy rather than me doing the same. He accepted my view. Later during the conversation he mentioned that he had no parents and was on his way to Bangalore for the IPS training!!
