Light of Divinity

Saviour of our souls

We were saved from many fatalities. Before I had met Guruji, I
could, as I have said, feel his protection. Once when I was driving in
Srinagar, a car—driven by an army officer I instantly recognized—
came right in front. I swerved to avoid a collision, my car heading
for a culvert. My vehicle stopped with its rear quarters perched on
the road. And it stayed there, three fourths of it hanging off the road.
The officer came out of his car and told me my brakes had failed. I
could only thank God for saving me.

Later, when the divine protective power was revealed to be Guruji,
he continued to save us. When I was in Jalandhar, a mini-bus nearly
rammed my car near Guruji’s temple. I reached the temple only to
find him standing near the gate. He looked at me and said, “Saved.”

In December 2005, I had taken my son’s car out to go to a nearby
park for a stroll. A truck came near a crossing and would have hit

it is generally smaller vehicles that have to take evasive action. The
truck driver looked at me crossly and I was compelled to tell him
that it was my bhagwan (God) who had saved me. Hearing these
words, he smiled and moved on.

Guruji also got my husband, a Major General posted at
Chandimandir then, promoted. The board cleared him, but there
were only five vacancies and he was the eighth one on the list.
There was no chance that he would get promoted. Guruji was in
Jalandhar. My husband had his darshan there. After the langar,
Guruji said: “Lt. General sahib let’s give you a dining out.” After
distributing some sweet prasad, Guruji gave him a dress to wear
and a silver glass to take milk from. I kept the clothes and the
glass—which were blessings—in an almirah. But Guruji told me
that my husband should wear them. He did and Guruji’s blessings
simply kept flowing. To our surprise, he got three extensions till he
was promoted—a first-ever case in the army. The delay occurred, as
the file was stuck. Guruji sent me to Delhi to check up on the case.
A general, a devotee of Guruji’s met me there, and was apprised of
