Om Shiva Gorakh! I salute to Sri Nathji Maharaj! My respects to Sri Gurudev!

My brother, my sister who got married in Kolkata and her family, and I were trapped in a tantric’s web for almost 5 years. He was destroying us right from the core without us even realizing it. We had been reduced to being his puppets. By 2005, he started to visit our homes much more often and we had submitted our mind, body and soul to him. And our wealth! And yet our eyes were closed to all of this.

And then one day it led to such a situation at our home that news about this travelled to the in-laws of my younger brother in its entirety. And they were immensely devoted to the Amritnath Ashram.

Guruji then sent Mr. Dilip Madhogarhia, our uncle, to Barakar to enlighten us with the truth. We knew that our uncle is associated with the Ashram. In fact he had expressed his desire to take me to meet Guruji at the Ashram several times in the last 4-5 years. But my entire family and me had always thought of the tantric as our guru. He tried to put some sense into us all day but we just could not believe him. We had been talking since morning and it was now 7 in the evening. Then suddenly, Uncle Dilip started to slap us with one hand and hug us with the other hand. And he did not even realize that he was doing that! But that is when our eyes opened and we realized that we were stuck in a deathtrap.

Finally, our entire family was called over to the Ashram in Fatehpur on the orders of Sri Narhari Nathji Maharaj, where he provided our entire family with a protective armor. A lot of incidents happened on the way that could have prevented us from reaching the Ashram. But by the grace of Nathji, we successfully reached the Ashram. From then on, Sri Nathji Maharaj came over to Raniganj or Kolkata every Amavasya to protect us for a whole year. We have a general idea but cannot even fathom what all he measures he must have taken other than that to save us from that villainous tantric. Words are not enough to describe this whole episode.

In the end, I would just like to request Sri Nathji Maharaj to grace my family and me with his blessings forever and to keep showing us the right path so that we can be of service to him!

His devotee,
