Swami's Divine Talisman

June 13, 2008

I would have given a protective talisman to a devotee and that individual would have worn it either in his neck or somewhere on his body. You do not have to constantly think of Swami. He will be with you and looking after you, even if you do not have such a protective talisman on your bodies. My grace is always available to all people. The purpose of this talisman however is that if the individual wearing it is in some danger or difficulty, then the talisman will immediately bring to me in a flash the news and goes back with my grace to you. This is the function which the talisman that I give performs. It constitutes a kind of link between the wearer and me in times of danger. Such material gifts have been protecting thousandsof people.

In the month of April this year, he came with me to Bombay and took part in several programmes. However on the last day, he had to leave Bombay at midnight to go to a foreign country. He finished his work there and as he was preparing to return to India he became ill and was unconscious. He did not know anything about himself. There was no one who knew him or any friend with him. When he came to the airport to board the flight, he did not have his ticket and the relevant papers with him. If one has to come from such a far off country, it would not be possible for one to do so even if one tried to get into the place stealthily and without a ticket. He was not conscious and he did not know himself. He searched everywhere but could not find his ticket and was in great trouble. At that time, the ring which he was wearing had brought the message to me in a flash. In one moment, the airport officer came and put him on the plane even without a

ticket and he does not even know how he came to India.
