Amazing Grace
I
have read and heard a lot about miracles happening in the part-1 course.
I myself experienced the greatest miracle of inner transformation and
drastic changes that happens in life since the days I did my part-1
course. But I did never witness a miracle right before my own eyes
before 22nd of March 2007. Something happened just before my eyes, which
was another instance of His amazing grace.
It was my third course as a teacher. There were 24 people including the
assistants at the community hall of the Sree Ayyappa Temple, HAL,
Bangalore. There was one participant, who met with a motor bike accident
some days before the course. His name is Shyam. He works for TCS at
Bangalore. On day one, he could not reach the course venue of his own.
He was very badly injured. One of our volunteers, Rahul had driven to
his house and brought him for the course. He was really injured. I could
find a lot of scratches, wounds and cuts on his body, especially
on his hands and legs. Even there were wounds on his palms! He
could not even hold a pen. Our volunteer was writing for him.
Throughout the sessions he was sitting on the chair. I could see the
pain in his eyes. He had severe headache too as an effect of the
accident. He could not do anything properly, neither pranayams, nor
bhastrika. Even ujjayi breath created headache for him.
Next day I was a bit confused; whether to allow him do kriya or not. He
was having problems with his eyes too. Anyway, finally I decided to
allow him to do kriya. He was pressing his head, forehead and showing
signs of pain during Kriya. Towards the end of the kriya, he became
unconscious and fell down from the chair. But surprisingly, I was not at
all worried. I allowed him to lay there. He told about severe pain after
the kriya, while sharing the experience.
On the second day also same things repeated. He was showing signs of
pain. He could not breath the fast cycles. I just advised him to relax
for sometime. Still he was giving his 100%.
On third day, when he came for the course, his eyes were sparkling .
could do Pranayams, Bhastrika and what not.. He came to me, shown his
hands and told. "I don't have any pain now!! It's gone. I am not even
using medicine. I came on my bike driving. Even there is no pain on the
palms." His eyes were sparkling with wonder. He said "I have a slight
pain on my knee. that's all. It's amazing!!". Still I could see the red
color of flesh; but he had no pain. I just looked at the photograph of
my master. I had no words to utter.
He became a different person. On Saturday the session was at 04:00PM. He
told me on Friday, that he could not come for the session, for he had to
attend the first "call" of his career. But he was there on Saturday,
sharp at 04:00 PM. He told. "I don't know how. The call got
postponed.."
On Sunday we conducted the sessions at Sumeru Mandap at Ashram. I could
not believe my eyes. He was running, jumping dancing..like a kid... Even
he fell down on the floor during one of the games. But according to him,
there was no pain in his body. He shared his experience. "What shall I
tell? It's visible before you. I came here in such a condition that I
could not move, I could not sit properly.
My body was aching so much. Now there is no pain at all. Now I will come
for the next course also (to assist)." I asked the crowd. "Did you know
that your breath could heal you?" Nobody opened mouth. They nodded their
heads. Shyam told, "YES." "with grace of the master."
