to  hospitals?”  “Sukhi  aunty,  have  you  read  the  Shiv
          Puran?” My mother replied in the negative and Guruji
          further added. “Kai baar Shivji nu guru da roop le ke
          aana  painda  hai  apne  bhagatan  nu  moksh  dilawan
          waste.” - “Many times Shiv takes birth in the form of a
          guru to free his people from the cycle of birth and death
          and  grant  them  moksha.”  Again,  such  strong  words
          went  right  over  my  head.  Now  as  I  write  this  book,  5
          years  after  his  Mahasamadhi,  I  have  realized  who he
          actually was. He gave me many hints but I took him for
          granted.  We  have  read  the  maha  Shiv  Puran  many
          times since and it is very clearly mentioned there that
          except for Lord Shiva not even Bhramha or Vishnu can
          grant moksha.

               An ayurvedic doctor often visited Guruji and Guruji
          would  humour  him  by  getting  his  pulse  read,  or  by
          taking some medications from him. “Guruji you are not
          unwell,  why  do  you  eat  all  these  medicines?”  I  asked.
          “Meri body tuhadi bodies wangu nai hai. Meri body
          light  hai.  Eh  sab  dawaiyan  mera  kuch  nai  bigad
          sakdi.” - “My body is not like yours. It is full of light. All
          these  medicines  cannot  have  any  effect  on  me.”  As
          usual,  the  words  didn't  sink  in.  The  doctor  came
          everyday and I would frown each time  he gave Guruji
          more  tablets.  On sensing  my  unhappiness,  he  then
          explained. “Main Ayurveda nu bless kar raheya haan.
          Ik  time  aaoga  jadn  Ayurved  bahut  demand  wich
          howega. Main is doctor nu bhi award dilwana hai.” -
          “I  am  blessing  Ayurveda  through  him. There  will  be  a
