later the divine healing was confirmed. I had gone for a CT scan six
months after the operation to check the status of the disease. The
scan showed that the three suspicious patches (on the liver, kidney
and stomach) observed in the post-operative scan earlier had now
disappeared. A Miracle with a capital M had just occurred: My body
had been retrieved from the clutches of cancer!

In due course, with Guruji’s blessings I recovered completely.
Today it has been nearly a decade since cancer afflicted me. I have
not only shaken off the disease, I retain Guruji’s blessings of good
health. The only medicines I have been taking are the langar and

of my recovery now tell me to forget that I ever had cancer. They
don’t need to tell me: I know I have got a new life with the grace of

of driving, I too started feeling a bit sleepy. It being night and there
being little or no traffic on the highway, we were travelling at speeds
of over 100 kmph. As time progressed, I felt more and more sleepy.
I could not wake up Dad, as he was tired from the daylong journey
and we had to follow Guruji’s aadesh, so the journey could not be
avoided.

Thrice I was jolted from my sleep only to realise that the car was
going off the road. It was comfortably steered back on track every
time. We stopped the car once and I washed my face with cold water
to freshen up a bit. That it did not help was another matter. We kept
on driving the whole night. I could barely hold my head up to see
