Guruji's feet. They were all crying and told Guruji that
          the doctors had given up on her. We recognized her to
          be  the  same  lady  who  had  refused  to  drink  Guruji's
          leftover  tea.  “Aunty,  jadon mai  apna  mahaparshad
          tenu ditta si, te tu kehendi si I don't drink jhootha,
          us din main is hi bimaari da illaj ditta si. Je tu us
          din meri chai pee lendi, ta is haalat wich na hundi.”
          - “Aunty, that day when I gave you my tea, you said you
          don't drink other's leftover tea, but I had foreseen your
          illness and had given you my tea for this reason only.
          Had you accepted my blessings that day you wouldn't
          have been in such a condition.” We all knew that our
          guru  was  too  kind  and  forgiving  and  would  still  save
          her and that's exactly what he did!

               “Guruji I don't like going to the dentist. I hate that
          chair and I'm very scared.” I told Guruji one day. With
          all due respect to all dentists around the world, I never
          was  their  biggest  fan.  “What  happened?”  he  asked.
          “Guruji I have been diagnosed of a deep bite, I had it
          rectified as a child but it seems to have relapsed. The
          doctor suggests braces.” Being in college, I was, just as
          any  other  young  girl,  not  keen  on  having  my  looks
          spoiled. “Does that mean your teeth will fall off sooner
          than  other  people's?”  he  asked.  “Well  yes,  something
          like that. What should I do?” “You don't want braces?”
          he  inquired.  “No  Guruji,  I  won't  look  pretty.”  Guruji
          chose to test me at that moment. He said, “There is a
          fakir  in  Panchkula  who  applies  a  paste  on  a  person's
          teeth and the teeth remain good for 5 years, go to him.”
