Present/modern day miracle; the good lord's attempt at stamping his relevance and supremacy or then yet another hackneyed case of blind;
unreasonable belief and age old superstition ruling the roost????
Thousands of incredulous and disbelieving gullible villagers residing in Mumbai's hitherto largely unknown and anonymous Kharodi Village claimed to have witnessed a "miracle" of "Biblical" proportions that shook them to the very core and only reaffirmed and reinforced their unshakeable belief in the greater glory of the almighty........
As mentioned earlier thousands of innocent and impressionable folks thronged the village's iconic Saint Anthony's Parish throughout a typically desultory Sunday as the news about "holy and consecrated water" seeping from the feet of the altar of lord Jesus Christ thronged the hallowed shrine all decked up in their Sunday finery.......
Fearing a complete breakdown of the salubrious and serene law and order situation alarmed and concerned men in khakhi from adjoining police stations made a beeline for the shrine post haste as the news of this supposed miracle spread like the proverbial wildfire......
As millions of pictures and lakhs of live videos of the "watery shrine" went viral on various social networking sites and mediums within a mere matter of minutes residents from the prosperous Andheri and Bandra localities made their way towards the same in order to witness this "one of a lifetime" spectacle by themselves.........
As bottles; plastic containers and any other receptacles that could contain the "holy water" flowing out from the feet of the deity were the crying need of the hour the humble and unassuming villagers made a killing by selling the same at astronomical and grossly inflated prices as much as twenty times over and above the original........
Concerned and dismayed police sources have confirmed that they have sent a SOS to their superiors for further reinforcements and deployment of hundreds of more policemen as they expect the numbers of people to go up by lakhs or so as every Mumbaikar who believes in such supposed miracles is expected to visit the now celebrated and honoured shrine and witness this so called miracle with his/her own "blessed" eyes.......
Miracle or otherwise; well I will simply let each one of you draw your own conclusions and surmises.......
