Coming to think of it, Parampujya Sadguru Shreeaniruddha Bapu has been with me and by my side at every step in my life; in fact it is He who took the step, is what I feel from the heart. One could even say that I have been a bhakta of Sadguru Bapu right since my childhood because my entire family was always fond of the 'Sainaam' (the name of Shree Sainath) and had full faith in it. But it was only in the year 2002 when I was studying in std. XII that I was blessed with the darshan of this Parmatma in form and that again only due to His love and grace. Several such occasions then came my way and along with my wife Dr. Neha and her parents Dr. Priya and Dr. Rajiv Karnik I was graced with His darshan. Meeting with Parampujya Suchitdada, so dear to all of us, bound me even more firmly to Bapu's feet.
As guided by Parampujya Suchitdada we decided to go to Australia for better career prospects. Here again, right from the time we took this decision until we both got our resident visa, He was with us at every step and every moment.
