“A series of Classes had been
arranged in a multi-storied complex once and I was staying in a flat there for a
few weeks. Late one evening, the watchman of the building came in with a
family-problem: His brother’s son had
some difficulty in school which the parent could not attend to, since he (the
parent) was a daily wage-earner and was not able to get leave. The boy was
distraught for a few days and then he did not return home one evening, nor, as
it transpired, had he attended school that day.
“The family
sought the aid of an astrologer who, for a hefty fee, said sapiently that there
was a ‘crisis’ in the boy’s horoscope, to be rescued from which certain
propitiatory archanas had to be done on a daily basis in a temple
nearby, the priest wherein was incidentally a relative of his! Tens of rupees
had been expended but there was no sign of the missing boy.
“I explained to the watchman that
the boy should be somewhere and all that the family required now was (i) to
ensure his safety wherever he may happen to be; and (ii) to secure some message
regarding his whereabouts. For this, the family should refrain from mutual
recriminations among its members and intensify their combined thought in the
direction of the aforesaid relief. Astrologers are not equipped to give
constructive counselling, most of them being only glib talkers imposing on the
gullible public.
“The watchman took my advice and
organised his brother’s family to do the sankalpa night and morning. On
the fourth day a kindly gentleman, in whose house the boy had been working as
domestic since he left home and school, brought him back. The employer found
him diligent and honest but the boy would not reveal his background. On the
night before, however, the lad had woken up crying for his mother. The
gentleman managed to obtain his address then and restored him to his parents. Later
in the day he also went to the boy’s school and used his good offices to get
the student transferred to another section, thereby solving the main problem
too.
“This was the sixth case of this
nature brought to me and in all of them the boys returned home. I am relating
this so that you may realise the value of the life-link that exists between
parents and children, husband and wife, and brothers and sisters. Whenever a member of a family is in some
serious difficulty others should go to his or her aid through the medium of the
thought-process that can span space and time, without your having to incur any
monetary expenditure. For this process to be effective, you have to fortify and
train your mind to be friendly to you, and not weaken you by generating
imaginary fears and anxieties. Charlatans would not help you to strengthen your
mind, for the simple reason that they have a vested interest in the weakness of
their clients’ intellects!”
