Not yet— hold on,
PEOPLE DID NOT RECOGNISE GURUJI as Guruji in early days and He acted as a soil scientist, while working in the Ministry of Agriculture, Govt. of India. He would attend the office, would go on survey tours to collect soil samples, mostly from the hills of Himachal Pradesh.
He headed his team of a Driver, an Overseer, a Cook and a Digger to proceed to the testing areas in the official Jeep. He would camp in the fields for days together and return with his reports to submit in his office. Then He would submit the expense statement and received cash from the office cashier named R. P. Sharma.
Once, Guruji wanted cash against his vouchers, but the cashier did not agree and asked him to get the cash next day. Guruji insisted for the cash saying that He needed it. At this the cashier got annoyed and said,“Tujhe apne paison ki padi hai aur idhar main baaju ki dard se pareshaan hoon aur mere paas dawa bhi nahin hai”
Guruji took a pause and asked him about the pain.
He narrated that he has been suffering from the pain in his arm for last so many years, and that he can’t sleep in the nights without having tablets. He further said that he doesn’t have the medicine and his pain is on its peak at that moment.
The topic turned to be serious — Guruji said, “If I remove your pain, will you encash my vouchers ?” At this, the cashier said, “Agar tu meri dard theek kar dega to Main Tera Chela Ban Jaoonga”.
Guruji said, but you will have to suspend the medicine in the night, even if the pain returns.
Some how the agreement finalized verbally. Guruji asked him to stand up. Guruji hit him on the paining arm, five times using back of his right hand, and the cashier was O.K.
Next morning he met Guruji to tell about the absence of pain and that he did not take any medicine. For the first time in so many years he slept well. This cashier turned to become a prominent Shishya of Guruji.
He was called by the public, “Sharma Guruji”. This Shishya was much loved by the super master and He called him by a special name ‘Motte’ his name is R. P. Sharmaji.
I remember, at times when I felt tiredness and fatigue in the path of Guru Bhakti, he supported me with Gyan in a very simple language. When people came to Guruji with non recoverable prolonged diseases, Guruji would say, “Go to my Shishya Sharmaji”. He took a few minutes to settle their problems. As Guruji had taught and instructed him, he would touch the area of pain and recited ^¬* “OM” and people were cured instantly.
I still remember him while doing pranaam to him.
So Guruji can turn a sick cashier to a holy Guru, which intellect or wisdom should I use and recognise Guruji ?
Where is Mr R P Sharma resides now a days.
