Baba walked into the room and his sister slipped out of a coma
by Dr Devi Shetty, Cardiac surgeon and founder of Narayana Hrudayalaya :
GOD HAS NOT CREATED everyone equal. I believe that some people have
superhuman powers. Sathya Sai Baba was one of them. My brother-in-law told me
about him 12 years ago. When I met him, he already knew I wanted to build a
cardiac hospital on the outskirts of Bengaluru — a project most were sceptical
about. When I met him, he simply told me, “The city will come to you.” It
really did come to me. Baba once gave me a ring that I wear all the time,
except during surgery, because I feel his warm presence.
The most beautiful miracle of Baba’s is the one my brother-in-law
witnessed. He was treating Baba’s sister, who at the time, had been in a coma
for days. When Baba walked into the room, she woke up, talked to him for a few
minutes and slipped back. How do you explain that medically?
A Hindu woman once came to me for treatment. Someone in the Ajmer Dargah
had told her it would save her life. She had aortal arteritis, a rare and
serious condition. She insisted I operate. I didn’t know how to. I had to patch
up her liver, her intestine and re-establish circulation to the brain. I did
and she has been healthy for eight years now. Similarly, a very established
doctor and friend saw his patient in a hospital levitate while meditating. I
have seen people who are two yards away from death surviving and perfectly
healthy people dying suddenly. How do you explain this? We do 36 heart
surgeries a day in our hospital. We cut off circulation to the brain, paralyse
the heart, and the patient is practically dead. Each time, I don’t know if he
or she will survive it. Any doctor who thinks he does is kidding himself. You
don’t want to hear this from a doctor and a scientist, but my hands are about
as powerful as forceps controlled by God.
OUR LIFE IS HIS MESSAGE
Sai Ram
