Saturday, February 21, 1948
On the 21st of February, Amarendra and Krishna Kumar, sons of Sri Radhakrishna Setty went to Puttaparthi to escort Baba to Kuppam, for their sister Vijayakumari’s wedding.
On the 22nd of February, Baba came to the marriage hall at 12:30 pm, and presided over the marriage function. He materialised a Mangalasutra for the bride. He blessed the couple.
In the evening, Swami gave a musical concert where He sang many Tyagaraja Krithis.
was this near the time one of his very first students Rupak Chandrakoti was already there, also is is this Vijayakumari's wedding the same lady who has authored my favorite book "other than You refuge there is none-" also is she the same one interviewed by Ted Henry recently who is still alive in PN?
ReplyDeleteSai Ram,
ReplyDeleteDr. Rupak Changkakoty joined the College at Brindavan for his undergraduation in the 1970s. This is of a much earlier era, of the year 1948. It is of Smt. Vijayakumari's wedding. Your assumption is correct. She elaborately shares this experience in her famous book 'Anyatha Sharanam Nasthi'.

I had just been born, 12 days before the concert. How very nice to know.
