Ever  since  I  met  Guruji  for  the  first  time  I  was
          aware  of  a  beautiful  fragrance  that  came  from  him.  I
          used  to  wonder  if  it  was  something  that  Guruji  used,
          maybe  a  perfume,  but  could  never  quite  understand.
          Each time I pressed his feet, the fragrance would start
          coming from my hands as well. Everything he touched
          would become fragrant. Each morning when Guruji got
          up from meditation, I would go into his room to clean it
          and the fragrance would be so strong that I sometimes
          had difficulty breathing. It was as if a hundred bottles
          of  perfume  had  been  broken  in  that  room.  Being  the
          curious person that I am, I just had to know the source
          of this beautiful fragrance. I asked him “Guruji, what is
          this beautiful fragrance all around you?” He laughed at
          my foolishness and said “It's not perfume.” I felt a bit
          sheepish but I had to probe. “Then what is it? Guruji
          please  tell  me  why  was  the  room  so  fragrant  when  I
          entered  it  this  morning?”  Guruji  then  explained,  “Eh
          khusboo meri body di natural khushboo hai. Carora,
          arban  mahapurushan  wicho  kisi  ek  wich  eh
          khushboo hundi hai. Shivji wich eh khushboo hai.” -
          'This  fragrance  is  in  my  body.  One  in  a  billion
          mahapurush  will  have  this  fragrance.  Lord  Shiva  has
          it.”  At  that  time I  never  understood  the  importance  of
          what he had just told me. He then made me smell his
          hands and feet. The fragrance was divine. In the same
          room where Guruji meditated, there was a photograph
          of his feet kept on a wooden niche. “Sukhmani, look at
          that  photograph,  everyday  amrit  flows  out  of  it.”  I  got
          up to see the photograph but I couldn't see the amrit
