Param Pujya Sadguru Aniruddha Bapu, our forever caring parent cannot bear to see any us devotees, in trouble. All of us continue to benefit from his selfless love and protection. As we share these experiences with others, we not only applaud his virtues but also become more steadfast in the path of devotion and righteousness. This is how my Sadguru creates wonders in our lives! I am a physician settled in Lucknow. On January 02, 2006, at about 7 in the morning, my colleague, a neurosurgeon, revealed to me that my 14 year old son had a malignant tumor in his brain. Before this incident, he had already operated on my son twice. The day this diagnosis was made, we consulted another well-known Neurosurgeon in Lucknow and he also stated that even with the best possible treatment, there was a 50% risk to his life and he had not more than 5 years of life left. That day, I was a dejected father who had been pushed into an abyss of darkness. I decided not to give up but fight, what seemed the inevitable...

Thursday, 9th August 2007. I was on stage to perform the aarti at Shreeharigurugram. I had been asked to stand in front of idol of Shri Dattatreya. The aarti began and within no time, the flames of the aarti started spreading in the breeze. This resulted in the cubes of camphor lying in the platter to ignite. Now all the cubes were burning at the same time. It was only the first aarti and we were just about half way through it. My ‘uparna’ too fluttered in the breeze and to protect it from the flames, I stepped back a little and held the aarti further away from my body. By then just about everything in the platter was burning as aresult of which the platter also began to get heated. Soon the platter became so hot that I could barely hold on to it. For a moment, the thought of setting down the platter came to my mind. But I dismissed it soon as doing thus would distract the bhaktas engrossed in the aarti; besides, it was only a matter of a few days and my burnt fingers would soon heal....

At the outset, I wish to mention that I will always remain indebted to Bapu for blessing me with a rebirth on November 17, 2006. About 7 days prior to that day, I suddenly became unwell. I would start gasping for breath even on walking just a few steps and the situation became far worse on the 17th of November. I was having so much difficulty to breathe that I was hardly able to speak with anyone. When I consulted the doctor, he immediately asked me to get myself admitted to a hospital. He also added that the symptoms were those of an impending heart attack and that my heart was barely functioning and was supplying only about 20% of the Oxygen the body actually needed. We boarded a taxi as there was no time for an ambulance and started towards the Parsi General Hospital. However, Destiny had something else in store for me. Suddenly I turned blue and collapsed on my daughter’s lap right there in the moving Taxi. At the same moment I saw Bapu in front of my eyes. I saw a rainbow and stars...

On the 30th of March, at 7:30 am, about 10 volunteers from Kalyan and Shahad Centers, left by a Sumo vehicle to coordinate upasana at two places near Kasara in a region called Vashala. Another set of 10 volunteers from Bhandup (East and West) centers, also traveling by a Sumo, met us near Kasara. To reach the village of Veluk one has to traverse a short ghat section after passing the Central School at Vashala. While driving up the ghat section at a steep blind corner; our Sumo suddenly left its path in an attempt to give way to another vehicle coming from the opposite direction. The driver had stepped on the accelerator instead of the brakes. The car kept rattling along the rugged terrain, bumping and sliding at places. All of us kept screaming “Bapu Bapu”. The car just would not stop. Finally on seeing a huge deep ditch in front of us, we just closed our eyes and braced ourselves to face the imminent final moments of our lives. Right at that moment, everyone called out to Bapu in...

This extraordinary experience which we Bapu devotees from Singapore have been graced is according to me, meant for the whole world. Mrs. Sapana Sunder was one of those devotees who attended every Upasana at the centre. She was a rather curious devotee. She would regularly keep asking us questions which we would try to answer to the best of our capacities with Bapu in our minds. Due to her regularity at the upasana centre our acquaintance grew. Her faith in Bapu strengthened and she was blessed with many special experiences. Her life until then quite dreary, gradually began to show signs of blossoming with happiness, all by the grace of Bapu. Every time she sang the gajar and offered the aarti tears streamed down her eyes. Just when life was beginning to look up, Sapana’s husband fell ill. He had chest pain among other complaints. He had to be shifted to the hospital as he was not doing well at all. All kinds of tests were done. All the reports were normal. Sapana was naturally glad ...

Since Sadguru Shri Aniruddha Bapu took us under His benevolent care we have been given so many memorable experiences, that it seems almost wrong to short list His blessings. But it is always a pleasure to share our experiences with other bhaktas as it gives us a chance to sing our Sadguru’s Glories. We had Paduka Pujan of Bapu’s Holy Padukas at our residence on Feb 24th2007, the occasion of my husband’s birthday. The presence of Padukas always brings a feeling of festivity and we wished for the Padukas to stay with us for some more days. Our wish was granted. We have full faith in the Omnipresence of Bapu, he is present not only in The Shrimadpurusharth Granth, the pendant, the photos but all those things in which we believe Him to be in. Our faith was firm but we never expected that He would give us Prachiti [divine evidence] of the same, so soon. On March 1st, a fire broke out in our kitchen. It started as a result of some oil getting overheated and the filter in the exhaust hub caught fire...

My son completed his 3rd year B.Sc. (Computer Science) exams in the year 2007 and the results were out on the 12th of June 2007. The mark-sheet clearly stated ‘Fail’. We just could not believe it. I asked him, ‘did you see the result properly?’ He replied ‘Yes’. I was stunned, just did not know what to do. Rahul had always been a clever student and had hardly missed a distinction up to his Hsc exams. We were feeling absolutely helpless and lost. The last resort was, but obviously, our dear beloved Bapu. I related everything in front of his photograph and pleaded, ‘Bapu, please deliver us from this problem!’ Some days later, I narrated the same to SadyaPipadada (Govindsinh Dabholkar-Appa). Appa assured me and said, ‘Have Faith in Him, some solution is bound to surface and everything will be well again.’ During that time, Rahul’s Professor asked him to apply for reevaluation. 3 weeks later, on 11th July 2007, the Xerox copies of the answer sheets came home. Then Rahul...

On 7th June 2008 at about 12.10 in the afternoon my wife Vishakhaveera, her elder sister who lives in Baroda, my daughters Shruti and Shreeya and I myself left our home in my car to see a movie. Vishakha’s elder sister wanted to see the Marathi movie ‘De dhakka’ and so we headed for Cinemax Sion. We were on the Eastern Express Highway and I was driving quite slowly due to the rainy season. We were around Chhedanagar when a strange incident happened. It was a straight road and so the vehicle too was running straight ahead. All of a sudden the steering wheel in my hands veered sharply to the left. I felt the wheel being pulled; I felt the jerk as if someone was tugging at it. I struggled to turn it in the opposite direction but I could not. My forces and strength were just not enough. I thought that perhaps it has got locked, and so tried to apply the brakes. But this again did not work. My daughters in the back seat were yelling out, “Papa, what in the world are you trying to do?”...
