Devkamta Dixit ji's uncle had an unsuccessful eye operation. The wound did not
heal and blood oozed from his eyes. He was treated by Dr. Shukla, who
was going away to attend a conference for two days. Before leaving, he
gave Dixit ji a new prescription and said, "The infection will be
cured, but the eyesight will be lost. He will never be able to see."
Dixit ji said, "Only if Baba says so will I believe this." The doctor
was not impressed by this remark and said, "I have spoken the truth. If
anyone can restore his sight, I will bow at his feet." Shortly after
the doctor had gone, Baba arrived. When Dixit ji told him what the
doctor had said about his uncle, Baba said, "Give him
pomegranate juice to drink, his eyesight will be regained."
He at once gave pomegranate juice to his uncle in the presence of Baba.
That same day the Sundarkand from Valmiki's Ramayana
was being recited in Dixit ji's house, and Baba got up and went to
listen. The part that contains the conversation between Hanuman and
Sita was being read. Baba became so overwhelmed by emotion that he
covered himself from head to toe with his blanket. When he was
uncovered after some time, tears of blood were seen flowing from his
eyes. After Baba left the house, Dixit ji's uncle experienced an
unexpected improvement in his eyes. He was able to see everything and
became very happy.
Baba spent the next two days at the house of
Dr. Dixit, the brother of Devkamta Dixit. When Dr. Shukla returned from
his conference, he was baffled upon examining his patient's eyes. He
desired to meet Baba and asked Dr. Dixit where to find him. When he
learned that Baba had already gone to the train station, both men left
together and arrived at the station just as Baba's train was about to
leave. They had his darshan through the window,
and Baba praised the doctor saying, "He is an expert
doctor. He has cured your uncle's eyes."
Dr. Shukla was about to go inside the train to touch Baba's feet but
could not, for the train started to pull away from the station.
