The lord is really mysterious

[Guest guest]

Om Namo Narayanaya.

 

I am posting after a long time.Well, the lord kept me very busy from

dec 20th onwards. my mother had a terrible fever and as a result lost

her memory for a few minutes. My son and me rushed her to a doctor

who also happens to be my classmate and friend. she advised us to

place mum under observation but my mum was not at all willing coz she

hated hospitals considering the fact that since 1992 my father was

being hospitalised for one reason or other. so far he has had around

7 different major opertaions and was even completely paralysed once,

but due to his sheer willpower overcame even that and then purchased

a car and drove it around.my mum has always been a true companion to

my father and people in my area always tell that she is a savitri who

rescued my father from near death situations by being by his side

during his hospitalisations and reading Narayeenyam. Anyways,we did

not admit mother to hospital , but brought her home and followed the

medications given by the doctor. I only thought of Lord

Guruvayurappan and beleive me, in two days mother was okay and fine

and even went out to Kochu Guruvayur Temple at matunga here.But my

doctor friend still insisted that i take her to a neurologist for

check-up. meanwhile, my father too developed knee pains which were so

bad that the physiotherapist suggested that we meet a neurologist for

him.

 

Therefore i took an appointment with a neurologist for both my

parents at hinduja hospital here. my mother came very reluctantly

after much coaxing from my son and husband and my dad. the

neurologist checked my mother and said to do an MRI scan of the brain

immidiately which we did. mother was so scared of the mri machine

that she pleaded with the technician to allow me to come into the

room and be with her.As she was so terrified , I told her to close

her eyes and think that she is standing in Front of Guruvayurappan in

the temple.Poor thing she did just that for the next 45 minutes as

she underwent the test.later when she opened her eyes she immidiately

told me to book for a 'kalabham chartal ' at Kochu Guruvayur temple

here. In fact she wanted it done on Feb 11th her wedding anniversary

and i did so.Three days later the neurologist phoned me saying that i

should come to the hospital immdiately as the MRI report showed that

mum had a brain haemorage.he wanted us to do a CT brain angiogram

immediately to decide whether to perform a gamma knife radiation or

brain surgery on my mum. i was shocked and could not even react but

decided to do the ct scan. Guruvayurappan heard my heartfelt prayers

because in the doctors own words -'a miracle had occurred' . there

was no trace of the haemorragge in the ct scan'. in fact the

neurologist asked us to leave the mri film and ct film with him to

show it at a conference 2 days later to other doctors.

 

we were so overjoyed that i purchased sweets and offered to lord

guruvayurappan. there were two family weddings on jan 28th. and my

releived mother went out and purchased a costly saree for the

occassion.Evening of 28th she planned to go to my son's schhol to

watch him get awards for his good performance in ssc exams.however

the lord had other plans.my husband and son had gone to the airport

on jan 25th at 9.pm, to pick up my mother in law who was coming for 5

days for the marriage.within 15 minutes i received a frantic call

from my father that mummy and he have got burnt and to come

quickly .i rushed to my parents home which is barely 5 minutes from

my house.dad was burnt and bleeding from the brow in his attempt to

save mummy whose sari had caught fire.mum too was burnt but she had

changed her clothes and was towelling her hair. i phoned a friend and

together we rushed them to a hospital. i was appalled to hear that

mum had 70% burns and dad around 20% burns. in a span of 12 hours

they were shifted to 4 hospitals and eventually my mother had to be

moved to an exclusive burns hospital as doctor felt she had good

chances, i looked after dad at one hospital and my sister, my mom at

other hospital. she was kept in seclusion as doctor did not want her

to catch an infection. she was doing fine but on the 10th day she

developed lung infection and was kept on a ventilator. we were

allowed to see her and as i sat with her the night i kept praying to

lord guruvayurappan to do only whatever he thought best for her.feb 5

th, my mum passed away and feb 11th her wedding anniversary instead

of 'kalabham chartal' at temple we were flowing her ashes in the

banganga river.Guruvayurappa, only you know why all this has

happened.I remember though my mother was on ventilator she opened her

eyes when I reminded her of the kalabham charth. she kept staring at

lord guruvayurappan's photo which i showed her. I trust the lord is

personally taking care of her now. My dad's wounds have healed and he

is out of hopital . He has resigned himself to fate and we beleive

that whatever happened is only a test of our faith in the lord.people

all over attended mum 's funeral and helped us . everyone wondered

why such a simple caring and selfless person had to meet such a

tragic end, but certainly mysterious are the ways of our lord !

Dear Jayashreeji,

 

I am deeply saddened to read about your Amma. My sincere condolences.

 

Please know that you will be in our prayers and our thoughts. Our

special prayers for your father to have a fast recovery.

 

From my own personal experience in the past, I can understand your

grief and all those difficult questions arises from such an incident.

Philosophy or other explanations will not answer all your questions or reduce

your grief. But, time will.

 

Some incidents and things are beyond our human understanding. We all have to

accept it. However, in the course of time, all your questions will be answered

and you will realize the reason for the incident in retrospect.

 

For the time being, you need to be talk to many people you are close to and need

to go on with daily life. I know it is hard and tough, but what else we mortals

can do in such situations?

 

Also make sure that your father gets proper care. He needs company and need to

feel the warmth of all your love at this critical juncture. Make him talk and

grieve as well. Do not let him keep everything inside.

 

A few months back a visiting Swamiji explained to me that we take birth to

'learn' and gather knowledge. Our life experiences - good, bad and shocking -

all are nothing but a learning process for our

soul. It is an essential learning process in every soul's journey to Mukthi. We

have to learn good, bad, happiness and sadness. And when we learn everything

there to learn through multiple Janams, we become 'learned souls' and that

elevate us to the next level of soul's journey towards Mukthi.

 

According to the Swamiji, my mother had to learn suffering and we were to

witness that as a part of our learning process.

 

Dear Group, let us all pray for Jayashreejis mother and father and her family.

We all are there for you in this tough time.

 

Om Namo Narayanaya:

Sunil.
