the case. After his intervention, the file moved again. Within days,
my husband was posted as Lieutenant General to the AMC centre
in Lucknow—a kingdom in itself.
Music system plays without power
In Lucknow, Guruji stayed with us for some time. Once a fuse got
burnt at around 3 am. The generator did not function. It was time
for the satsang and Guruji—the divine light of our lives—was sitting
amidst us. He told my daughter to switch on the audio tape machine.
She didn’t, as there was no electricity. Guruji repeated his command.
My daughter switched on the tape and, lo, it worked and played for
four and a half hours. Without electricity, mind you.
Getting a devotee’s house built
Guruji also got my house built in Panchkula. When he asked me to
do so, I had very little money. My husband greeted the news with
sarcasm. He wondered where the money for the undertaking would
come from and asked me whether Guruji would shower money.
As it happened, so was the case. My husband gave me a little seed
money—around Rs. 40,000 that had been saved over from my son’s
marriage. Then I found—thanks to Guruji’s indirect prompting—I
had some fixed deposits I could use. Finally, after Guruji had asked
me for the third time about my shares, I was able to sell them at
a good price. Suddenly, the money was there. Guruji even asked a
shopkeeper to give me material on a discount. Before long, the house
in Panchkula was complete. My husband’s query had been amply
answered. Guruji made a house for us to stay in. It is his temple and
we are its caretakers.
The gift of a silk shirt
Thanks to Guruji, my sons’ weddings were also blessed. Guruji
attended my son Manoj’s wedding in 1991 in Chandimandir.
He predicted that the couple would have two sons and it was so.
In fact, when doctors tried to hide from me the sex of the infant
in the mother’s womb, I—remembering Guruji’s words—told them.
Similarly, my son Arvind was blessed with a son and a daughter.
