A parish priest from Bangalore meets Roberto

Sunday 29th april 2007 - Five years ago we received from India an e-mail from a Parish priest, who had heard about Swami Roberto from his beloved friend Max Fesch D'Orlando. Among other things, he wrote: “If God wills it one day I will visit you all at your ashram”.
And God has so willed it: Father Sagayanathan, (the Parish priest of the Sacred Heart Church in Bangalore and professor of philosophy), accompanied by Max, came to Leinì and was finally able to hug Swami Roberto.

It was a beautiful moment. Father Nathan - everybody calls him by this name - greeted those present and expressed words of great esteem and praise for Anima Universale.
On Monday Father Nathan had to reach Rome for his return flight to India. He greeted us with a brotherly embrace and bright eyes.

But surprises for Father Nathan were not yet at an end: in Rome he met a beloved friend of his from Anima Universale, Alberto Chitti, who took him to Fiumicino airport at 2.30am. Alberto wanted to share with us Father Nathan’s joy at having met us: “We spoke for almost two hours and he told me that his dreams had come true beyond all expectation. He was radiant and full of gratitude to the Lord for all the blessings he had received”.

Padre Arokiasamy Sagayanathan is the Parish Priest of Sacred Heart Church, Manager & Correspondent of Sacred Heart Boys School, Director of Bangalore Community College, Richmond Road, Bangalore.
He is a visiting Professor of Philosophy at various Religious Institutes in Bangalore.
He holds a Master Degree in History (Bangalore University), Psychology (Annamalai University), & Philosophy (St. Peter's Pontifical Institute) and B.Ed (Annamalai University).
He is the author of two books: “The burning bush of the Sahara” and “Geetanjali to Bharat ki Suputri (Bl. Mother Teresa)”, the latter dedicated to the memory of Mother Teresa, whom he had the joy to know.
