Only the Jogi can Change my Words:

Once Swami asked the attendants to go to the jungle for cutting grass. The attendants got ready with sickles but Gopalanand Swami met them on the way. He looked at the sky and said, "Clouds have gathered on the Bhensla hill and it will rain heavily. So don't go for cutting the grass." When the attendants began to return to their seats, Swami met them and enquired about the reason for their return. When the attendants talked about the rains, Swami said, "Thakorji likes cow-milk only, and if the cows don't eat green grass how will they give milk ? So, go. It won't rain now. It will rain later." The attendants left and returned to the temple after some time, with bales of grass. Seeing them, Gopalanand Swami asked why they had gone in spite of his instructions not to go. So the attendants talked about the orders of Swami. On hearing this Gopalanand Swami laughed, shook his head and said, "Oh ! This is the work of Jogi. Only he can change my words." And with these words he entered the assembly hall and it began to rain heavily outside.
At Junagadh, Swami ceaselessly delivered gunatit discourses. Swami had but a single noble purpose and that was to make everyone recognise the supreme identity of Shriji Maharaj. One can become brahmaroop only through the company of Anadi Brahman. And it is only after becoming brahmaroopa that one is entitled to worship Purushottam. Swami never allowed a lull in the tempo of talks, with a view to make everyone Brahmaroopa. In order to spread satsang, Swami used to go on extensive excursions in the Sorath region around Junagadh.
Every year he used to go to Vadtal for samaiya. On the way, devotees used to go forth about two miles to welcome Swami. Through Swami, everyone enjoyed the divine pleasure that matched that of the darshan and samagam of Shriji Maharaj. Saints and devotees used to come up to Mahelav in order to welcome Swami on his way to Vadtal. Such was the infinity of the entire satsang towards Swami.
