Baba is the greatest healer who treads this earth. He can heal with His 
look or touch, a mere brush of His robe, and also when He ignores you. He is 
the Doctor of doctors.


      As a Doctor, I have witnessed numerous patients suffering from very 
serious ailments who, despite treatment in the best hospitals of the world, 
could not be cured, but they were miraculously cured by Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai 
Baba. 


      Towards the end of March 1995, it was my turn to be a patient of a fatal 
disease. I started feeling very weak and suffered from pain all over the body 
which remained throughout the day. I had much difficulty in micturition, and 
that too with frequency of burning sensation. Constant headache and drowsiness 
made my work in the consultation chamber a torture for me, and I had to rest 
for about half an hour before starting examining the patients. I consulted a 
number of specialists who advised me to undergo a battery of tests and 
ultrasound examination of the prostate gland.


      The urologist whom I consulted examined my pathological reports and 
remarked that the results pointed to cancer of the prostate gland. The 
specialist advised me to undergo extensive open surgery as the disease by then 
may have spread to the surrounding area and elsewhere. In view of my handicaps 
of obesity, history of ischaemic heart disease for which I had balloon 
angioplasty done and the cancerous process, etc., he advised that "the 
cardio-thoracic surgical unit was to be kept ready for any emergencies" during 
operation. I was completely shocked and remembered Swami in this hour of crisis 
in my life. "Swami", I thought, "Whatever You do is for my good as You are my 
Divine Mother and Father. You only know what is best for me and I would 
gratefully accept Your verdict."


      On my returning home after the consultation, my wife inquired about my 
diagnosis and the result of the investigations. When I told her what had 
transpired, she suggested that both of us should go to Whitefield (Bangalore) 
to have Swami's Darshan and guidance. On reaching Swami's Ashram at Whitefield, 
we found Sai Ramesh Hall jampacked with devotees, giving us little chance of 
attracting Swami's attention, particularly when it was difficult for me to sit 
on the ground. In case I sat on a bench, the possibility of Swami coming there 
was remote.


      On the second day of our visit, Mrs. Safaya, wife of Dr. A.N.Safaya, 
Director, Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Medical Sciences, happened to be 
sitting next to Nimi, my wife. Nimi told her about my illness and our purpose 
of visiting Whitefield. Mrs. Safaya informed us that after Darshan, Dr. Safaya 
would be in his room for a few minutes when he could be consulted. 


      When we met Dr. Safaya, he told us that he along with his wife was 
shortly proceeding to Delhi and as such he could be of little help. However, he 
said, before leaving he would speak to Swami about me. Later he spoke to Swami 
about my illness. Swami told him that I had cancer of the prostate gland for 
the last 10 years but He had checked its deterioration. Next day, during 
Darshan time, Swami spoke to, my wife, Nimi and told her to proceed to the 
interview room. Nimi tried to call me for interview but I could not see her 
calling me. 


      However, later Swami asked me too to proceed for interview. In the 
interview room, first He spoke to a team of officers who were working on Sri 
Sathya Sai Water Supply Project, a huge multi-crore project for providing water 
to Rayalaseema region in Andhra Pradesh, which for centuries did not have 
enough drinking water and efforts by the British and Indian governments 
completely failed to yield any worthwhile results. 


      After giving final instructions to the group, Swami looked at me and with 
His outstretched hand, fingers apart and palm directed to the ground, He waved 
His hand and materialised a beautiful ring on which AUM in Hindi was written. 
He pushed this ring on my right ring finger where it fitted perfectly. He then 
told me, "Doctor, you have had this cancer for 10 years". 


      Again He waved His hand and materialised Vibhuti, gave some to me and the 
rest He distributed to the ladies sitting in the interview room. After this. He 
asked us to proceed to the inner interview room. The first question I asked 
Baba was: "Swami, how do You say that I had cancer for 10 years?" 


      Baba looked into my eyes and I suddenly remembered that 10 years ago I 
had acute retention of urine and had to be kept in the Emergency Department of 
All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New,Delhi overnight and the 
obstruction was relieved only the next morning. Following investigations, I was 
found to have adenoma of prostate, for which I had to undergo surgery by 
trans-urethral resection twice.


      Swami lovingly looked at me and said, "Do not worry, I shall still look 
after you. But this time you require extensive surgery. I shall phone Dr. Bhat, 
the chief of Urology Department in Super Speciality Hospital at Puttaparthi. 
Dr. Bhat will look after you." Both Nimi and I hesitated for a moment as the 
weather was very hot, and so, we thought, that there was much risk for sepsis. 


      Before we could say anything, Swami said, "Do not worry, I can make all 
arrangements in Bangalore also or wherever you like." I then realised my folly. 
It dawned on me that Swami's arrangements are always perfect and because He 
first mentioned Puttaparthi Hospital, why should I hesitate to go there? 
Moreover, it was more a temple of healing than a hospital where Swami had 
treated numerous cases and sanctified the entire environment. 


      We both requested Swami to arrange surgery in the Super Speciality 
Hospital at Puttaparthi. Then Nimi spoke to Swami thus: "Swami, each year when 
we come to You, he develops a new problem. We feel very much ashamed of 
constantly begging boons from You". To this, Swami replied, "No, there is 
absolutely no shame in asking Me, because I am your Father and Mother and, in 
fact, everything". Nimi then prayed to Swami, "Swami, You please operate on 
him". Swami replied, "Do not worry; My blessings are with him. I will protect 
him". Swami then put His hand on my head lovingly. What a delightful experience 
it was! I felt very powerful as blissful vibrations passed throughout my entire 
body. It was a unique experience, something very difficult to describe. 


      Next, Swami ordered me firmly, "Doctor, you go and sit on the chair 
outside - not on the ground". I obeyed His command, the meaning of which I 
understood later. When He came out of the inner interview room, He told me that 
He would call me again for interview. Next morning, He again called us for 
interview and we found that a chair had been kept next to Swami's. As we 
entered, Swami asked me to sit on the chair. 


      It was Tuesday. Swami told me that He had spoken to Dr. Bhat, a very 
famous urologist and nephrologist, who heads the team in Puttaparthi Super 
Speciality Hospital. He also told me that the surgery was fixed for Thursday, 
two days later. We were called for a thorough check-up the next morning. Next 
day, before leaving for the hospital check-up, we offered our Pranams to Swami. 


      After receiving His blessings, we proceeded to the hospital for check-up. 
When we reached there, we found a team of doctors waiting for me. They 
conducted various tests. 


      Dr. Bhat spent a good deal of time on my physical examination and reading 
the various reports. He then scanned through the ultrasound films very 
carefully. After thorough examination, he said, "Well, Dr. Kanwar, I find 
absolutely no abnormality in your prostate gland." I was completely surprised 
at this observation of Dr. Bhat and asked him in disbelief, "But doctor, what 
about all these reports? They are from the best specialists in Delhi." To this 
Dr. Bhat replied, "With all the years of experience that I have, I can very 
confidently reassure you that there is nothing wrong with your prostate gland. 
Baba must have cured you." 


      Nimi, however, was far from satisfied and told him that we had come fully 
prepared for surgery from Delhi. "Moreover, why did Baba tell us that the 
operation would be done on Thursday - the next day?", she asked. Dr. Bhat 
replied, "Swami's very clear instructions to me were to operate, if necessary. 
I find no abnormality." To further satisfy us, he repeated uroflometery which 
showed excellent results. So, he asked us to return with confidence. 


      Baba: the Doctor of Doctors


      Next morning, Swami came to me and asked, "Doctor, did you not go to 
Puttaparthi?" Before I could answer, He had walked across several Darshan 
lines. Next day, He said, "I shall telephone Dr. Bhat and inquire about the 
results" and walked away. I smiled to myself, for I was now absolutely sure 
that He had cured my cancer during the interview when He had put His hand on my 
head, and I had felt very powerful vibrations.


      It was only then that I realised why He had asked me to sit on the chair 
for two days - perhaps then after the divine operation, the wound was not 
healed. Afterwards, He never asked me to sit on the chair. He gave me 
Padanamaskar for five days consecutively, two times in the interview room and 
thrice afterwards. He not only blessed me with Divine Padanamaskars but gave me 
a new life also. 


      On the following day, Baba told me, "Dr. Bhat says, operation is not 
indicated" and then He walked up to Nimi and told her that He had cured my 
cancer. I was convinced that once Swami said, He had cured the cancer, then it 
was not necessary to repeat the tests. But because of the insistence of my 
colleagues, I repeated the investigations seven times, but they were found alt 
normal.


      Baba is the greatest healer who treads this earth. He can heal with His 
look or touch, a mere brush of His robe, and also when He ignores you. He is 
the Doctor of doctors. I offer my most humble obeisance at His Divine Lotus 
Feet. 


      Swami explains the secret of the cure that many afflicted persons 
experience in His Presence. He says, "It is My experience that I am one with 
every sentient thing, every human being. My love flows out to everyone for I 
see everyone as Myself. If a person reciprocates My love from the depth and 
purity of his heart, My love and his meet in unison and he is cured of the 
affliction. Where there is no reciprocation, there is no cure."
