After that my sister's family and I left for Palava to sign the agreement for renting a flat. Mom stayed back at home since the car was small and only 4 can fit. My sister was driving and I was on the seat behind her. My brother in law next to the driving seat and my niece (also an AOL teacher, and SSU gold medalist 2020) next to me on the rear seat. On the way just after crossing the toll a truck hit our car from the right. The truck hit my door (rear right door where I was sitting) first, turned the car 90° and then all I could see was the truck was pushing the car and me from the right side. With the impact the car turned 90° and hit the divider. The car came right in front of the truck. The truck dragged our car to another 10 - 12 meter and was about to topple it. I felt the car left the ground contact and shouted out "Guruji, Guruji, Guruji". The truck stopped with the 3rd loud callout to Gurudev.
The car doors on the right smashed but none of us got even a scratch, not even a glass or mirror broke. With that magnitude of impact the glasses should have shattered and Didi and I would have atleast been badly wounded with glass pieces all over us. Leave alone the window glasses, the right side mirror too was intact. We 4 of us would have been dead, with Mom alone at home and not even knowing what happened.
I am grateful to my Master for saving us. No words can equate to Gurudev's Love and Affection for us. And, stay connected to the Master and He takes care of you. It was his grace which invoked the thought to chant 108 times Om Namah Shivay during Sunday Followup which we haven't done earlier. Do your Kriya and Sadhana, and He takes care of the rest.
