his fragrance. I had heard that if you remember Guruji truly, he
always comes to your rescue. The rosy scent signified his presence.

The doctor examined Daksh and was very upset and looked
disappointingly at me. He had found both the spleen and liver
enlarged, clearly pointing towards malignancy.

The doctor made me feel the enlarged organs and asked for
an ultrasound of the abdomen immediately to assess the extent
of involvement. I was near to tears, fervently praying to Guruji to
take care of this problem. I had heard of so many miracles and was
convinced that he could cure my son. Throughout the 40-minute
drive to the radiologist, Guruji’s fragrance reached out to us
reassuringly.

While the ultrasound was being conducted, my son and I could
feel his presence as his fragrance lingered around us. With Guruji’s
blessings, the ultrasound was normal. The entire diagnosis changed,

logical mind would not let things rest with him, and so I got a gamut
of investigations conducted on my son. Believe it or not, each one
came out normal.

Finally, a biopsy was conducted on the lymph nodes which, by
now, had started joining (or matting). The lymph node that was
removed showed changes to the naked eye. I was confused. How
could this be? Guruji had said that all would be fine, but then why
this? All kinds of thoughts came to my mind. I was desperate.

That evening I was asked to come to his sangat once a week only. I
wondered why he had done this. Next week, the biopsy results came
and they were normal. The surgeon could not believe it; he said it
