The marriage ceremony of Hotridutt Sharma's daughter was to be solemnised
on 18 June 1973. On 15 June, Sharma went to Kainchi to have Baba's
blessings and invite him to attend the ceremony. Baba said to him, "Pandit,
tell me something I can do." With his hands joined in
reverence, Sharma said, "Maharaj, you are doing everything." Baba said,
"I shall do the work that nobody else can do."
Hotridutt ji became thoughtful, and then Baba clarified his statement. "There
is no electricity in your village. The marriage party will be
uncomfortable because of the heat, so I shall change the weather. Make
arrangements for proper bedding as it will be very cold on 18th and
19th June." The marriage party arrived at the appointed
hour.
It drizzled during the day, and a wind started blowing from the east.
By night it became as cold as it usually was in the months of November
and December. Hotridutt ji, as was his nature, told others what Baba
had said in Kainchi, and everyone who attended the marriage was amazed.
After the marriage party was sent off, the weather reverted to normal
and became extremely hot.
