A Fruitful Blessing


In 1976 Bhuvan Chandra Tewari was in charge of the Roadways station at Lohaghat and was also a traffic inspector. One night Baba appeared in his dream and said, "Tewari, you have not performed the shradh [a ritual offering for the ancestors] for your father? Come, let me help you." Immediately the scene changed. He saw himself at his house in the village of Ghugoli. He had all the things needed for the shradh and was performing the ceremony before Baba. However, he had forgotten to bring a piece of cloth to cover the rice balls that were to be offered. Baba suggested he cover them by spreading some cotton on them. After the ceremony was over, Baba picked up some cotton, placed it on Tewari's head by way of a blessing, and then left. The dream ended.

The next day the Roadways regional manager, Jafar, came for inspection and asked Tewari to go to Tanakpur Road with him. Jafar and his wife sat in the front of the staff car with Mishra, the driver, and their son and Tewari occupied the backseat. On the way their car was involved in a head-on collision with an army vehicle at a place called Supala. The chassis of the staff car was dented in many places, but the body of the car was not damaged at all. The people sitting in the car had a narrow escape from death, and they all received injuries. Jafar's wife fractured her foot. Tewari escaped with a minor injury on his head at the place where Baba had put the cotton in his dream two days ago. Medicine was applied to the cut, and then it was covered by placing cotton over it.
