- Victoria and Hugo Vasquez, New York
Several years ago, when we were still new to
Swami, my sister experienced a phenomenal act of Swami's grace. At
that time, the Colombian economy was in turmoil and unemployment
rates had reached record numbers. Under those trying
circumstances, one night, a queerlooking visitor knocked at my
sister's door. He requested her to give him 50 Peso [Colombian
currency] for traveling to another city. The stranger claimed to
be penniless. My sister's heart melted and she wanted to help.
Unfortunately, that was the only money left in her house and was
to serve as the sole means of sustenance for several weeks to
come. Despite her daughter's reasoning, she decided to oblige the
visitor; she gave the money and closed the door. Almost instantly,
she realized that the visitor was none other than Baba himself and
she at once reopened the door. To her amazement, Baba had
vanished. The turn of events that took place in the coming days,
further proved the identity of the visitor. In the next few days,
she found unexpected money (for an amount that was sufficient to
provide basic necessities for several weeks). Strangely, her
husband was also re-employed and the family troubles ended
miraculously. Baba's timely intervention had averted a serious
crisis.
