Helper of the Helpless

In 1951 the young wife of Pooran Chandra Joshi had an attack of paralysis in Haldwani. Her face became distorted and pale, and her eyesight became blurred. Leaving her in this pitiable condition, Joshi had to go out of station. On his return her condition worsened. Joshi consulted a doctor, who advised him to take her to Lucknow or any other big town to get her treated. This treatment would have been expensive and beyond Joshi's means. In a state of helplessness the couple remembered Maharaj and then both fell asleep. Baba gave them darshan in a dream, and her condition improved. Some days later Baba himself came to their house and asked her, "Daughter-in-law, what happened to you?" He looked at her kindly, and putting one of his palms on her head and the other under her chin, he gave a jerk and set her face right. He also restored the loveliness of her face.
