Supreme

In 1972, having just turned 18 years old, I became Guru's disciple. I moved from my family home to an apartment with my sister and another disciple. Guru had warned us that this was the "year of destruction", and that we should be especially careful and pray for special protection. With the thrill of my new life before me, I prepared for my first breakfast in my new home. Unexpectedly, as I screamed "Supreme", my knife slipped from my hand and landed point down straight into my bare foot. Saying Guru's name, I pulled the knife free. Not a drop of blood, a mark or a speck of pain remained. This was the first protection-miracle of many that my Guru would so compassionately offer to my life.
