          boxes  of  tikkas,  lets  open  and  see  if  there  are  any
          coloured ones in there.” In the first box he opened, we
          found a coloured kundan tikka matching exactly to my
          sister's set. Everyone in the shop was shocked to notice
          the similarity between the tikka and the set, as if they
          were made together by the same craftsman.

               3 rd  February  was  the  date  of  the  wedding  and  a
          week before; the weather took a turn for the worse. The
          rain seemed as if it would never stop and we had the
          arrangements in the open at Mount View, Chandigarh.
          It was too late to now go looking for a covered area to
          accommodate  everyone.  My  mother  panicked  and
          rushed  to  meet  Guruji.  “Guruji,  how  will  I
          accommodate so many people if the weather remains so
          bad?” “Don't worry.” said Guruji. “It will be a warm and

          getting  a  shout  so  she  decided  to  keep  quiet  till  after
          the  wedding.  All  through  the  wedding  she  was  upset
