One day, in darshan, Prof. Anil Kumar was reading a letter from his daughter, who was a doctor living in Minneapolis, USA. She was doing her internship there and had written a very touching letter that he should not worry about her. She then went on to relate a little miracle that had happened to her.
One day while returning form the hospital, she missed a turning and got lost. She could not find the way back to the hostel where she was staying. Although she felt like crying, mentally she began singing some of Swami's bhajans and prayed to Swami for help. Immediately an American stopped his car and said, "May I help you? Where do you want go go?" She gave him her address and he dropped her off at her hostel. She concluded by saying that he should not worry about her and that Americans were very kind people.
Prof. Anil Kumar folded the letter and kept it in his pocket, wiping away the tears of joy that were flowing down his cheeks and then suddenly, he realized that Swami was standing in front of him.
Swami said, "Where is the letter?" He replied with feigned innocence, "Letter, Swami?" But Swami was not to be put off. "Yes, the letter you have in your pocket, give it to me," insisted Swami. Prof. Anil Kumar replied, "But it is a personal letter, Swami," to which He responded, "Oh, is there anything personal between you and Me, if you are not going to give it to me, I will tell you what is in it." Prof. Anil Kumar made a last effort, "Swami, it is a letter from my daughter."
Swami said that his daughter in US constantly thought of Him whilst Prof. Anil Kumar being close to Him, thought only of his daughter. That was the difference.
