“The
best documented paranormal
phenomenon of modern times.”
Never before in history
has a simultaneous miracle occurred on such a
global scale.
Television stations
(among them CNN and BBC), radio and newspapers
(among them
Washington post, New York Times, The Guardian and
Daily Express)
eagerly covered this
unique phenomenon, and even sceptical journalists
held their
milk-filled spoons to the statues of gods - and
watched as the milk disappeared.
It all began on September
21st when an otherwise ordinary man in New
Delhi
dreamt that Lord Ganesha,
the elephant-headed God of Wisdom, craved a
little milk.
Upon awakening, he rushed
in the dark before dawn to the nearest temple,
where a skeptical
priest allowed him to proffer a spoonful of
milk to the small stone image.
Both watched in
astonishment as it disappeared, magically
consumed by the God.
What followed is
unprecedented in modern Hindu history.
Within hours news had
spread like a brush fire across India that
Ganesha was accepting milk offerings.
Tens of millions of
people of all ages flocked to the nation's
temples.
The unworldly
happening brought worldly New Delhi to a
standstill, and its vast stocks of milk
- more than a
million liters - sold out within hours.
Just as suddenly as it
started in India, it stopped in just 24 hours.
