Our Bapu always says, ‘Children, I will never abandon you!’ Yes. This is 108% true! Ten years ago, my parents died and I became an orphan. This grave and untimely loss made me extremely anxious. But after I started coming to Bapu, all my problems were resolved by Him. I got back my lost mother (Nandaai), Dada and father (Bapu). All the people from Bapu’s ‘Hari Om’ family were like my own family members. Nothing more was needed in life.
Bapu gave me a wife and soon we had sweet children too. HE gave me all the desired things in abundance! HE also cared for me like a flower, and helped me sail through all the problems that came in my life.
27th March 2009 was one such unforgettable day of my life. It was Amavasya (New moon day) and the following day was Gudhi Padwa (Beginning of a Hindu new year). As usual, I was returning home from the site after completing my work. In fact, I had finished my work a bit earlier and hence I was thinking of playing with the children after reaching home. I had decided to spend some quality time with my family since the following day was a festive holiday.
