Light of Divinity

be willing to support you, but all of them are helpless when the
forces acting against you are beyond their control. But Guruji’s
unconditional support protects you against all odds. You have to bear
the consequences of your karma, but in the divine refuge of Guruji,
I have seen Nature in a helpless position, since any punishment
before reaching a follower of Guruji is either completely erased or
lessened to a very high degree. This comes at the expense of Guruji,
who bears the brunt of your suffering.

  His tools to relieve you of trouble and suffering are varied, which
is evident from the spectrum of experiences I have had.

  Once I had a severe headache while sitting in the sangat. Its
intensity was such that I was not able to eat or drink anything.
Nothing was sinking in. Then suddenly I was summoned by Guruji.
He told me that he had a severe headache and asked me to press
his forehead for a few minutes. I returned to the place where I was
sitting and suddenly realized my headache had disappeared. By
asking me to serve him, he had relieved me of the headache.

  Once I had a terrible fever, which lingered for some time. Even
after a lot of check-ups and medication, the fever did not subside.
With strong medicines, it took two weeks to come under control,
but not for long. My fever developed a strange pattern. It used to be
fairly normal during daytime, but with the coming of the evening
my temperature would rise. This continued for the next four weeks.
Unable to reach a diagnosis, the doctors were helpless. All tests and
prescriptions failed to yield any result.

  Then one day Guruji asked my husband why I had been absent
for such a long time from the sangat. When Guruji was told of the
reason, Guruji asked my husband to use five green chillies in the
manner he prescribed. And that was it. The next day my fever, my
companion for over a month, disappeared and I slowly regained my
health.

  Thanks to Guruji, I survived another bout of fever. Along with
my family I had planned a visit to Guruji’s Bade Mandir though
I was running a mild fever. But as we proceeded and reached the
mandir, my condition deteriorated and the fever took an aggressive
form. I was hardly able to get up. Rather unexpectedly, Guruji came
to the mandir that day (Guruji’s visits to the mandir in those days
were rare, as some construction work was going on). Guruji told
my husband and a sangat member to prepare fresh limewater and
