Once Shri. Chidambar Mahaswamiji was in Sangolli village . With the news of Shri. Chidambar Mahaswamiji's arrival, everybody rushed including the kings, devotees in the area. At that time, Shri. Chidambar Mahaswamiji decided to arrange thread ceremony of their son Chi. Shankar.
The ceremony was going on smoothly for five days. But one day, ghee was out of stock . Thousands of plates were ready. Every body was ready for dinner. It was the time to start meals but due lack of ghee it was being late to start. Actually, four people have gone to bring ghee from near by village, but did not arrived in time and every body was waiting for them. Shri. Chidambar Mahaswamiji asked, “why the meals are not started ?” One of the disciples answered that ghee was out of stock and the persons went to bring ghee have not arrived till time. Shri. Chidambar Mahaswamiji smiled and asked him to go to Malaprabha river and request her for ghee. The disciple was surprised and saw towards Shri. Chidambar Mahaswamiji. Then Shri. Chidambar Mahaswamiji asked him to bring water from Malaprabha in pots.
Accordingly, disciples brought several pots of water after performing pooja of Malaprabha river. And kept the river water pots in the kitchen and told to Shri. Chidambara Mahaswamiji accordingly. Shri. Chidambar Mahaswamiji came to kitchen and saw the pots of water. Surprisingly, the water had become ghee. Then with that ghee served, thousands of people completed their meals. Then after some time the persons who had gone to bring the ghee, arrived in the pandol. The disciples approached Shri. Chidambar Mahaswamiji and told that the ghee had arrived with the persons who went to bring. Shri. Chidambar Mahaswamiji asked them to take all the pots to Malaprabha river and pour into it as we have borrowed the same from her. The disciples took the pots and returned to Malaprabha river and poured it in to the river as per order of Shri Chidambar Mahaswamiji and prostrated to Malaprabha.
The mirracle was seen by thousands of people gathered. But the mirracle is not important. The advise to the people out of this is to return the borrowed things big or small to the owner big or small duly with respect and intime.
