Light of Divinity

  Guruji is so intimately one with his devotees that he can read their
minds and hearts. One sangat evening, when Guruji was giving out
photographs, he gave one to me too. As I was taking it away, he called
me back and gave me six more photographs. I was reflecting on the
fact that one of my sisters had died, and he immediately called me
again. He took back one photo and gave it to a lady devotee sitting
next to me.

The rope of faith

If you want to attune yourself with Guruji, if you want a heartfelt
intimate relationship with him, you will have to sow the seed of
faith. The seed will sprout the bud of trust. Then, holding on to the
rope of your faith, surrender yourself to Guruji. You will then find
that you are truly in touch with divinity and through the Satguru’s
grace, the impossible becomes possible.

  The aarti (prayer) of Lord Ganesh mentions four blessings: “The
blind get eyes/ the lepers get good form/ the barren are gifted with
child/ the poor are enriched.” In Guruji’s durbar, I have seen all these
blessings being showered upon devotees. Cancer has been cured, the
childless have been blessed with children and no one who has come
to his durbar has gone empty-handed.

  All you need to do is to never abandon your faith.
  Guruji is the avatar of Lord Shiva. He has come to earth only to
bless us. But, Guruji has cautioned devotees that he has not opened
a shop, where one will come, touch his feet and their work will be
done. If we wish for his grace, we must learn to be worthy of it.
  Guruji sometimes confesses to feeling sad. He feels sad that
everyone asks him for worldly things, no one wants the real
blessings—the love of God, devotion, unflinching faith in the guru,
total surrender and complete trust in him. I request you with folded
hands that if you want something from Guruji ask for the dust of his
lotus feet, crave his darshan and remember him with every breath.

The rose of love

Occasionally with great love in his voice, he calls me Meera. I believe
that whoever sees him falls in love with him at first sight. The effect
of his darshan on me is such that I start weeping in his durbar. Once
