1.Joel Rearon , Hollyood film producer, writer and director , has narrated yet another novel episode, providing a panoramic glimpse of Divinity –that is Baba Joel’s wife Diana, herself a Sai devotee, carried a good number of Baba’s pictures with her on returning home from her second trip to Puttaparthi. She displayed theses pictures in their house with full love and devotion for Bhagavan Baba. This brought about a vociferous protest from her husband, who even went to the extent of referring to Baba as “THIS CHARACTER.”
2.Joel, decided to come to India and expose what he called “THIS CHARACTER. He had planned and accordingly told his friends Gould and S.J., and before leaving U.S.A..,
I will ask him for a rainbow over India, something which only God can give and certainly do not believe in the Voodoo type of Indian characters.”
3.On reaching Puttaparthi and after setting in a room there, they went atop the hillock for a cigarette, as smoking is an absolute taboo in the Prasanthi Nilayam. As soon as they reached the top, Joel witnessed a magnificent spectacle in utter bewilderment. He saw bright rainbow starting from just behind Diana and ascending vertically with amazing rapidly. In split seconds the rainbow reached a great height. Joel could not believe what he saw and shouted, “Diana, look over your right shoulder,” She turned and on seeing the rainbow exclaimed ”MY GOD!”
4. At this stage Diana informed Pameela, a girl from Bangalore, who was sitting there, ’Joel was going to ask Baba, if He is God, give him a rainbow. And look, Baba gave what he wanted even before he could express it.”
5. Joel’s eyes were filled with tears when he said,” Look the sun is shining, the sky is cloudless and very clear. How can it be?” How can that be?” He was wondering whether “THIS CHARACTER” (as he called Baba) had heard his words right across from U.S.A.Concurrently the rainbow disappeared from below upwards.
6. That evening as Joel sat for Baba’s darshan, Baba came straight to him and putting His hand on Joel’s shoulder said in a gentle voice,” How are you? Character!” Joel was stunned. Character!” he very word he had often used to ridicule Baba.
7. Next morning the family had an interview in which Baba asked Joel, “Well. Character! how did you like the rainbow?” Then addressing the group Baba told them that Joel wanted only a rainbow. This clearly signifies that the creation of a rainbow was after all insignificant manifestation of the Divine Powers.
