Guruji’s Photograph Saved his Life

Aggrawalji, a famous merchant of Jalaon bought a few cassettes of Bapuji and some literature.

Once a man visited his shop. He purchased some goods and left after taking down his telephone number. An hour later he called up at the shop stating, ‘seth! I had been given a contract to kill you with a huge sum of money, and I had accepted the assignment as well. However, on reaching your shop I happened to see his Holiness sant Sri Asaramji Bapu’s photograph. I felt as if He was sitting there in person, and inspiring me to become a good human being! Thus His photograph (rather Guruji) himself appeared in that picture and) saved your life.’

Crores of obeisances to Gurudev Who can shower His grace even through His picture.

The Power of a Photograph

An elder brother of Avadhbhai, a sādhaka from Ahiwara, dist. Durg (Chattisgarh) had deceased. There days after his death, his wife was possessed by a ghost, who started troubling the whole family by throwing stones, shouting and beating the members in the house due to which nobody could sleep at night out of fear. Tantriks were called for exorcizing the ghost but to no avail. The ghost told a sādhaka who had the words ‘Hari Om’ written on his wrist, “Don’t touch me, it burns me,.” Immediately, a photograph of Bapuji was brought before it. It closed its eyes and said, “It is painful.” Saying so, the ghost broke down crying.

Avadhbhai brought the photograph closer and as asked, “What do you fell? Who is this?” the ghost said, “He is a great saint. His brilliance is amazing, I cannot bear it.” Pujya Bapuji’s photographs were then put up across the whole room. The lady remained unconscious for four hours. By the time she regained consciousness, the ghost had left. Seeing this, all the neighbors too put up a photograph of Pujya Bapuji in their own home.

…Would have been
Dead with an Hour!

My cousin was bitten on the leg by a cobra as a result of which he became unconscious with the poison having spread throughout his body within half an hour. He was almost dead by the time we reached a government hospital. From there he was taken to Godhra and then to Baroda. As all of us were sitting disappointed in the train, I chanced upon a photograph of Pujya Bapuji inside the compartment. I prayed mentally, “O Gurudev! You alone can save my brother. If my brother is cured, I will take Deekshā myself and also bring my brother to your Dhyana Yoga Shivir.”

No soner was the prayer over, than a divine light came out of Bapuji’s forehead and entered my brother’s body. The lifeless and lusterless body of my brother regained consciousness. Later, upon coming to know of the whole matter, the doctor too was surprised. He exclaimed, “Impossible! He was bitten on the main nerve and that too by a cobra. His condition was such that he would have been dead within an hour. It could have only been some divine power that has saved him.” Pujya Bapuji is not only a Satguru but also an incarnation of God Crores of obeisances at His holy feet!

… And the Dacoits Fled in Fear

“Six dacoits gate crashed our house on 14th July 1999 in my absence. Two of them kept waiting outside in a Maruti car, with its engine on. They started demanding the cupboard keys. My wife prayed with folded hands before the photograph of Pujya Bapuji, “Now, You are our only Saviour.” She could say only this much and surprise of all surprises! Suddenly the dacoits started to flee, being scared. They ran helter-skelter as though having lost their eyesights. All is well by the grace of Bapuji.”

If you malign saints…

As one sows so does one reap. ‘O slanderer, sowing pebbles in the land, you wait for fruits? You expect to reap fruits in this way? But you must remember that the consequences of maligning saints will be disastrous.’ Numberless zeroes have no value without the preceding ‘one’. Everything is meaningless without that ‘one’ and that ‘one’ is the company of saints and the name of the Lord.

Lord Shiva never feared the venoms of countless snakes,. Any number of snakes may be coiled round Lord Shiva’s body:; Lord Shiva is in no fear. Similarly no rumours can frighten saints and devotees. They remain reposed in their glory. The noble ones engage themselves in the task of carrying out good publicity.
