Depression
disappears on
hearing Guruji
AS MAY be the case with many of us in the sangat, I came to
Guruji when I was in trouble and all other help had failed. I was
under acute depression, which was getting worse despite medication
and every other form of help. Now when I look back, I truly believe
I was called to Guruji. How else does one explain the miraculous
overnight cure?
My depression was severe and I was at an all-time low. I would cry
in desperation and get suicidal thoughts. I braved going to work and
tried to be as normal as I could on the exterior. I would wait to get
back from work to get to a temple and sit there and pray for peace.
This went on, and my condition seemed to only get worse. One day
I remembered that a close family friend had mentioned Guruji to
my mother years ago. I immediately called my mother and asked for
directions to reach Guruji.
I came to Guruji in 2000. I remember my first day at the mandir: I
was among the first to reach and sat in the front. It was the first time
in many weeks that I felt calm on entering a mandir. I remember
sitting there and hearing of people’s miraculous cures of serious
illnesses. I said to myself, “I will believe only when I am cured.”
