Baba and Dr. C Pillai-Guinea worm

[Guest guest]

Dr. C Pillai-Guinea worm

Doctor C. Pillai (Suffering badly from severe

guinea-worm) to H.S.D.:Kaka saheb, (HSD) this pain is excruciating. Death is

preferable. It (the pain) is no doubt for repaying poorva

karma; but go to Baba and ask him to stop the pain now

and transfer the working of poorvakarma to ten later

births of mine.

H.S.D. went to Baba and conveyed this prayer.

Baba.: Tell him not to fear. Why want ten more births? In ten

days he can finish all that suffering. Saints exist to give devotees spiritual

and temporal welfare; and Pillai wants death instead!

Bring him here. Let him not get confused.

The Doctor was brought and Baba gave him his own pillow to lie upon and

said: Lean on this, do not indulge in vain thoughts. Stretch you leg and be at

eased without actual suffering, Karma cannot be got over. That is true. Karma

is the cause of joy and sorrow. Therefore put up with whatever comes to you. Allah Malik. God is the all

controller and protector. Think of him always. He will look after all.

Surrender completely to him. Think always on him and you will see what He does.

Then Nana (N.G.C). put a bandage

over the wound.

Baba: Take it off, Nana is mad. That will kill

you. Now a crow will come and peck at the wound. That will make you alright.

Another day, Abdul, in trying to get down, unkonwingly

put his foot over the wound of Dr.Pillai. The

swelling was thus pressed, and the worms were squeezed out, Dr, Pillai first roared with pain. Later,

Pillai. Will the crow come and peck me hereafter?

Baba.: No, the crow: (Abdul) has come. The worms

have been thrown out. Go and rest in the Wada.

By applying udhi and taking

in udhi, without other treatment or medicine, the

guinea-worm was cured in ten days.
