how long the fragrance would remain. He smiled and said it will last

Enjoying Guruji’s grace in Dehradun

I was in Dehradun and had had no contact with Guruji for the
past three years. Suddenly, one night I had excruciating pain in my
ears. Both my eardrums burst. The next morning I went to an ENT
specialist. He informed me that both my ear drums had been totally
damaged. In fact, he gave the message in writing since I could not
hear a thing. The doctor said the army doctors will do an ear-drum
transplant, but that 95 per cent of these failed. Therefore, he added,
I should be mentally prepared for being boarded out of the army.

The same night a Sikh gentleman came to my house. He said that
Guruji had sent him from Jalandhar with a bottle of amrit, as Guruji
knew that I had become deaf. After I had taken the amrit for four
or five days, my ear drums re-formed and I could hear fully. The
doctors were baffled.

While I was still in Dehradun, the government sanctioned in 1988
a loan for the purchase of a car. I was in a dilemma about where
should I buy the car from—Dehradun, Delhi or Kolkata. A trunk
call came from Col. Chowdhury (now Brig Chowdhury) posted at
Delhi. He said that Guruji had entered his office like a storm and
said: “Chatterjee is now at Dehradun and is worried about the purchase
of his car. Tell him that the car is waiting at Chandigarh.” He went
out immediately. Brig. Chowdhury ran behind him. There was a
long corridor, but Guruji could not be seen. Thinking that Guruji
must have come to Delhi, Brig. Chowdhury rang up the Jalandhar
residence where Guruji used to stay. Brig Chowdhury asked where
Guruji was in Delhi so that he could go and have his darshan. The
man answering the call said that Guruji had never gone anywhere
and was sitting and smiling right in front of him. I bought the car
from Chandigarh. It ran perfectly till I sold it in 2006.

After 13 years, I come to Guruji

I had retired and was in Ahmedabad in 1998. I had had no contact
with Guruji for about 13 years. During June of 1998, I found it
increasingly difficult to sleep. My wife advised me to locate Guruji
