Light of Divinity

One answer comes from Meera’s father himself. Meera reports that
her father used to say that Guruji is not an ordinary guru or saint
who gains control of some powers (siddhis) and then displays these
to astonish the world and win over devotees. Guruji is a form of
divine light.

Mr. Kapoor too had Guruji’s darshan. Kapoor who was educated
in Banares, the city of Lord Shiva, saw in a dream that he was at
Banares’s Vishvareshwara temple. The door of the temple opened
and he saw Guruji. His gaze fell to his feet, where he saw Brahma,
Vishnu and Mahesh. Guruji was told of the dream; he told Kapoor
that the devotee had had his darshan.

Master of home affairs

Meera had been living all the time in a joint family in their Karol Bagh
home. But Guruji insisted that the Kapoors move to Gurgaon. So on
25 March 2003, she did. She wondered whether she should have a
religious ceremony to sanctify the new house, but Guruji did away
with all that. The Satguru simply asked her to enter the house with
his photograph first. Since then, his presence has been more than
amply felt in the Kapoor household. The very first time it happened
was when Meera was complaining to Guruji in her mind that she was
lonely. Though her maidservant had told Meera that the neighbour
adjacent to her flat was interested in striking up a relationship,
Meera did not make the first overture. But, the neighbour came in
one day and they began talking. The drawing room conversation
soon focused on Guruji. Soon, Meera had a friend. Guruji was in
the know of what was happening. He immediately asked Meera on
her arrival at the sangat whether she had made a saheli (lady friend).
Meera was amazed that Guruji knew what was happening at her
home. And it was not just the drawing room that was visible to
Guruji’s omniscient eye.

Once, Meera and her husband were having a trivial early-
morning dispute. In the evening, Guruji phoned up the couple. He
spoke to Kapoor, asking him why he had fought with Meera in the
morning. Before a stunned Kapoor could frame a response, Guruji
said the same to Meera. Though it was a minor disagreement,
Guruji had pounced on it, proving how intimate his knowledge of
home affairs was.
