headaches. Guruji rubbished this interpretation, telling Nassar that
there was nothing wrong with her and that she had conceived.
His words came true as two months after the excursion Nassar
sent a message around the time of Guruji’s birthday—which falls
on 7 July—that doctors had confirmed his wife’s pregnancy. Fifteen
years of infertility had been dismissed at the Mahapurush’s very first

on Shivratri to thank Guruji and seek a name for his son. Guruji
named the boy Murad, signifying the fulfilment of a wish.

I had been expecting to endure agonizing pain, but there was none.
It has been more than a decade since that day and my spondylitis
and its pain has never re-appeared.
It is worth noting that I never mentioned this problem to Guruji
nor did he ever say anything to me. I had merely obeyed the Satguru’s
word or hukm, which signifies the divine will, and the problem had
gone away.
The Satguru’s divine will, so often benign, can also make a mockery
