what they had told their father, told them to go back to the city. Not
only did the Rais decide to return home, the incident prompted
them to tell their father about Guruji.

Guruji’s protection extended to Rai’s father as well. The Rais were
shifting base to Chandigarh from Jalandhar on Guruji’s orders. The
family went first with Rai’s father bringing the baggage which had a
big photograph of Guruji’s next. The very day Rai’s father arrived in
Chandigarh to the new house, he had a heart attack. He was taken to
the military hospital. Guruji was in Delhi and Rai was with his ship
in Tokyo.

Rai was sleeping in his cabin, which was bolted from the inside,
when he felt someone shake his leg and wake him up. He looked at
the clock and it was 3.30 pm. Just then there was a call from home.
It was his wife, saying that his father was seriously ill. Rai said that
Guruji had just woken him up and would take care of his father,
too.

Meanwhile, it was found that his father’s arteries were blocked,
but he returned from hospital. Ten days later he fainted again. This
time the problem was put before Guruji. He called the couple and
advised a remedy. Soon, Rai’s father was better. However, he still had
to undergo a test. The day before, Guruji asked Rai to give his father
a shot of whisky. When the test report came, the doctor at first said
nothing. He went around with the reports to other doctors. When
finally, he did return to his patient, the puzzled doctor said that the
heart was okay.

If his father was cured, Rai’s mother too was blessed. Once while
she was taking a bath in her Jalandhar home, she had a vision. She
saw the pages of the Guru Granth Sahib opening and Guruji’s face
on them. His mother reported that at this time the divine will had
led her to do paath automatically.
