Articles: Devotion | The Perfect Guardian

We love to hear and enjoy such experiences of other people but when it happens to us we become a doubting Thomas. Such was the case with me. Somehow I was not able to believe the miracle. I had a book titled “The Lord Has Come” written by Ms. Kalyani Sundararajan, which was a birthday gift from my father.
On hearing this, she too narrated a similar incident which took place in her house in Delhi. She, in fact, assured me that I should not be worrying as Swami had blessed my uncle with a “long life”, symbolized by the long garland. Believing in her words, though not fully convinced yet, I stopped the conversation and opened the book that I had with me and started reading.
I opened a page at random and something caught my eye there in that page. By an amazing coincidence, it was an incident written by a devotee in whose house the garland had grown and coiled itself on the altar like a snake, which was an indication that Swami had visited her house as promised! I was so surprised and happy that I immediately prayed to Swami to pardon me for having such doubts in my mind.
A Beautiful Dream and a New Life
My uncle was once again hospitalized on that day. He had a beautiful dream in the night. In his dream, Swami came close to his bed and hit him very hard on his lower abdomen thrice and vanished! As he was taken for operation the next day, the doctors found that the place from where the tumor was removed was fully dried and there was no sign of any cancer!
He was discharged from the hospital the following day. He looked quite hale and hearty as if he never had any problem with his health. He took the garland back to his home and even after he reached home it continued growing for one full month. Later when he measured the garland it had grown 13 feet long! Swami had really blessed him with a new life, a long life. My uncle is still an active member of the Seva Dal and visits Prashanti Nilayam every year.
The fact that our lives revolve around Swami is itself the greatest miracle. All we have to do is forget all knowledge, leave all preoccupations behind, forget everything and surrender ourselves completely at His Lotus Feet as He is the only caretaker of our lives. Swami says, 'It is not in struggling that the process precedes. It is in surrendering that the victory is won.'
