Dr.
Anup Kumar Saxena of Bareilly, the son of Kailash Chandra Saxena of
Kiccha farm, was a student of Standard VII when Maharaj visited his
family's house and asked him, "What do you want to be?"
He replied, "D.M. [district magistrate]," for his grandfather was an
I.C.S. (Indian Civil Service) officer. Baba said, "You
might become D.M. of Bombay or Calcutta, but what is the use of it? You
will get a telegram from home and will not be able to reach there by
the time of your parents' death. You will become a doctor. You are born
to be a doctor. You will serve your parents at home and the people in
general outside. You will be educated at Meerut." The
family
was not at all interested in the medical profession. However, Anup
Kumar succeeded in his exams and applied to go to Meerut Medical
College. He did not become a D.M., but contrary to his own childhood
aspirations and those of the family, he became an M.D., doctor of
medicne. He opened his own clinic as prophesied by Baba and looked
after his parents.
