An Everlasting Message
Shankar Prasad Vyas came to know that a man was given five rupees with instructions from Maharaj to buy a lottery ticket in his wife's name. They won five lakh (500,000) rupees. After hearing this, Vyas desired to receive that same grace from Baba. He had to go to various places expounding scriptures and thought if he received money without any effort, all his problems would be solved. When Vyas got an opportunity, he asked Baba for a lottery ticket. Though Baba heard him, he did not give any reply.
That night while Vyas was asleep, he saw Hanuman ji in a dream. Hanuman ji struck Vyas on his back with his fist. It hurt so much that Vyas cried out and woke up. He still felt the pain. Just then Baba came in his room and massaged his back with his own hands. At Baba's touch, he recovered at once. Baba then asked him to sleep and went away. The next day, when Vyas met Baba in the morning, Baba asked him, "Do you want five lakh rupees or devotion to Hanuman? You get problems with money and not devotion. Hanuman ji taught you this lesson last night." Vyas' desire for money vanished.
