I came to know about Guruji a few years ago, but I feel He has been holding my hand since ages. Guruji alone knows how I have cleared my exams and secured a job. I have always struggled to cope, and do not think of myself as being either very intelligent or smart. However, with Guruji this does not count: You always sail through your difficulties. He is there every second of our lives. Right from saving me from a dreadful accident to helping me board a heavily crowded train, He has always been there. I just say "Guruji,
please help kardo", and He is there.
It is very difficult to count all the blessings He has bestowed upon me. I am sharing a few instances.
I was in Goa and was on a trip, riding pillion on a motorbike. My partner lost his balance and the bike was unstable, but we did not fall. Who else could this be but Guruji saving us?
Now, a daily happenstance. Local trains in Mumbai are crowded, and I always pray to Guruji before boarding the train that I at least easily enter them. Surprisingly, I always seem to get on less-than-full trains. My friends who travel with me have noticed the occurrence with stupefaction.
Whether our problems are big or small, our divine father Guruji is always there for us. Please surrender to Him completely to be delivered from your problems. Being human, we will always have doubts, questions and apprehensions. However, our sole challenge in life is to not apply our brains, to surrender and to have complete faith in him. All challenges big or small are handled by him. Jai Guruji! Jai Shivji!

Dream job comes true
I have always dreamt of working abroad. I aspired to go to Canada and began working to make it a reality two years ago. Guruji gave me His blessings. Even though I had not done well in my International English Language Testing System paper, I cleared that hurdle. However, it took a long time for me to get my visa, which was frustrating and confusing.
Guruji had better plans, which unfolded when I landed in Canada. I was blessed with a job within a few weeks. I am sure that is why He delayed the visa because He knew the most appropriate time for me to arrive in Canada. He took care of all details. I had a place to stay, food, friends, and my travel to work was sorted. Everything was taken care of by Guruji.
These days, when most people are getting laid off because of the pandemic, my company has kept me on the job. Those who know are surprised at how my life has turned out. They don't know that it is Guruji, who is my father and mother, is aware of all my needs. Our job is simple: Have faith in Him and never doubt. Jai Guruji.
Shukrana, Guruji!
