Debayan Chatterjee (Divine)

Vibhor Sahay (in his blog)

i actually do not know why i have started with him. its like i do not have control over my hands anymore. the brain is being controlled by some superpower. maybe i am being controlled by a Divine force. the Divine force of Debayan. it has come true. i did predict that amongst the whole 69 of us, if there was a saintly soul, above the worldly bondages, at par with swamiji himself, someone our kids would pray to, someone who will save humanity, it would be DEBAYAN. he has today asked me to serve him by propagating his name far and wide and i will do that till my last breath.
i imagine myself 40, 50 years down the line, when i have nothing better to do than sit and talk to people the whole day, proudly gleaming, boasting that i had studied in the same school as His Holiness Debayan. people would flock to me, beg me to tell them more about their favourite God.
I would tell them that we were in the same Dham, same room with 6 others, his bed mere inches away from mine. he would get up everyday and pretend to study when in fact he was sleeping all the time and trying to be subtle about it. he would at least put a quarter litre of oil in this flowing hair and then spend at least 3 hours, not continuous, in front of the mirror with a comb in his hand. he would then allow us to touch his feet and bless us. ah, what joy we would experience.
in the prayer hall, where we used to go every 12 hours, dressed up in dhoti and kurta, Debayan would be look his Godly best. he would then elevate to a state of trance, spend hours together, only to realise that he his late for the morning drill or the evening study. we would try to wake him up from his state of trance but he would be lost like a kid in its favorite toy shop.
i have so much to share about him but i guess some of his actions, ideas, ways are beyond the realm of my understanding. i believe that i am just divinely lucky to have him in my life. Jai debayan.

If Debayan is not God impersonated, he must be His finest creation then. The nonchalance with which he dismissed the wrongdoings of lesser mortals, every inmate of Vidyapith would concur here, was as spectacular as a cow discounting the barking dogs nearby.
God put him among 70-odd shameless rogues, he remained as calm, divine and non-existent as only he could have been.
While God's purpose of sanctifying us by keeping him company might not have been realized, Debayan certainly was able to bring about a momentary break in our rowdiness, as we all marveled at his actions, thoughts, and at times, mere presence.
He has to be divine. Period.

Debayan, on himself (in his orkut profile)

Very ordinary, yet distinct.
