the remaining ovary. This mass was pressing against the kidney,
which had swollen to double its normal size. Thus, five days after
our visit to Guruji Maharaj, Preeti’s undiagnosed problem had been
well defined. The doctors recommended immediate surgery.
A day later, at 11.30 pm, we were rushing to the hospital for
surgical attention, when we stopped for five minutes at the Empire
Estate temple to take Guruji’s blessings. Guruji blessed Preeti and
reassured us that she would be all right. We rushed to the hospital.
I had kept Guruji’s photograph with me while going to hospital. On
7 August, Preeti went through a number of tests and medicines were
given to her. She was relieved three days later from this hospital and
advised to undergo the surgery—a crucial one—at Apollo Hospital.
The 12th of August was a Thursday, a day we could visit Guruji
Maharaj. I asked Preeti if she was comfortable enough to go to
Guruji. She said yes and we reached Guruji’s place. When we came
out, Preeti told me that she had prayed to Guruji internally thus: “I

On 15 August, Guruji’s sangat was to be held at Mr. Bhatia’s house. I
asked Preeti whether she would like to come along with me to attend
the satsang. She refused. She said she believed in Guruji, but maybe
her luck was not so good. At the sangat, she said, when others will be
talking about how they have been blessed by Guruji she would feel
bad that she had not been blessed. So, I went alone. The first satsang I
heard was about a case identical to that of Preeti’s. A young lady, lined
up for surgery for ovarian cysts, got Guruji’s blessings and avoided
surgery. I was convinced that I was hearing this satsang because Guruji
wanted to give me an indication of the future.
A sequence of miraculous events started unfolding. Doctors, sure of
inevitable surgery, were surprised to observe a dramatic improvement
in Preeti’s condition. Few days hence, the doctors, unable to believe
whatever was happening, conveyed that Preeti did not require
