Rikhi Ram & Sons

 Shri Nathji and Priya Nath went to a famous music shop in Connaught Place, Rikhi Ram & Sons. It was from this firm that Mahamateshwari had purchased her harmonium years ago in Lahore. Shri Nathji wished to present a harmonium to Priya Nath for the coming Birthday of Shri Babaji Bhagwan.
On the evening of January 8, 1981, as they entered the music shop, Priya Nath noticed that there were parallel mirrors on two opposite walls of the shop. Shri Nathji was standing between the two walls inside the shop.
And lo and behold! There was a sight the likes of which had not been seen before upon the planet earth.
Shri Nathji was seen reflected an infinite number of times in each of the mirrors. It was as if Shri Nathji had multiplied his personality to form a countless number of Nath’s in both directions! It was a heavenly sight that was too beautiful to describe in words.
Shri Nathji was in his bright yellow silk turban, dark glasses and a face with a divine glow that was like the sun, the smart-fitting, green, woollen achkan of Mussoorie, white woollen chooridars, and black shoes–multiplied in millions of images on both sides. It was as if Shri Nathji had multiplied his images to reach far out, to the ends of the Universe itself. 

The proprietor of the shop who did not know Shri Nathji, developed an instant respect for him. Priya Nath thought he looked incredibly like the sitarist Ravi Shanker. He showed a harmonium to Priya Nath. The moment Priya Nath ran his fingers over the keys of the harmonium he liked the sound. Shri Nathji also said that the sound was perfect. And thus the harmonium was bought for nine hundred rupees. It was Shri Nathji's grand gift to Priya Nath–one that marked the beginning of a new and beautiful phase in Priya Nath’s life with Shri Nathji.

W.M. Kalmegh

 On 23rd of June 1979 on the auspicious 77th birthday of Shri Nathji, Priya Nath had booked Dhanwate Rang Mandir at Nagpur, the most prestigious hall of the city. then Shri Kalmegh, the Vice Chancellor of Nagpur University,, was part of the welcoming committee and  he garlanded Shri Nathji at the start of the function and applied the tilak to His forehead.

Nagpur University (now known as Rashtrasant Tukadoji Maharaj Nagpur University).

Smt. Tara Buty

 Smt. Tara Buty, a leading public figure of Nagpur. She had first met Shri Nathji in March 1949 and had even played host to him for the duration of his stay at Nagpur; but, at that time, Shri Nathji had not divulged his real form upon her, and she did not receive the devotion given to others.Latter in 1979 when Shri NAthji was to come to Nagpur, Taa Buty was at the head of the reception committee. When one devotee of NAthji from Nagpur send telegram to postpone the program and Nathji did not arrive then Tara Buty became distraught and she sent a telegram to Shri Nathji: “Save Prestige”. And, shortly thereafter, arrived at Shri Nathji’s residence in New Delhi by plane.
"Your devotees have become like orphans," she said to Shri Nathji, "Aapke bhakt anaath ho gaye hain. Please come and give them solace!"
The entire episode had been like a shocking drama. Even the devotee who had sent the telegram that created such havoc, had no idea why he had done it. The drama was part of the Divine Will. Tara Buty was destined to fly to Delhi to bring Shri Nathji to Nagpur.
Tara Buty came before Shri Nathji in his drawing room at Sarvodya Enclave. The moment she entered into his presence something happened to her. Tears came into her eyes and she began to experience the divinity of Shri Nathji.
She had met Shri Nathji in  Perhaps it was to grant her genuine faith and devotion that the drama had been enacted, and she had been compelled by circumstances to present herself before Shri Nathji at Delhi.
She begged Shri Nathji to start for Nagpur at once to save the prestige of the devotees who had announced his coming there, and also to give his darshan to the multitudes thirsting for him at Maharashtra.
Train reservations were well nigh impossible to obtain on such a short notice. But the miraculous was not far from happening when intense prayers and supplications from devotees moved the Divine Will. The reservations for Nagpur were obtained in one single day! And very shortly Shri Nathji was bound for Nagpur. Priya Nath and Sahadeva were with him, as also a servant, Brij Mohan, by name. Tara Buty travelled with them in the Servants’ Compartment. Even as Tara Buty sat in the Servants’ Compartment in the train, she had a vision of Shri Nathji's real divine form. She saw him as God Incarnate, Lord Vishnu, Lord Rama, Lord Krishna and Lord Shankar. Her heart and soul thrilled with a hitherto unfelt sensation and she could hardly contain herself. Tears streamed from her eyes as she came before Shri Nathji and bowed before him in the train.
This vision was to convert her, forever, to Shri Nathji. She had met Shri Nathji in 1949 at Nagpur, but the meeting had not opened the gates of her soul. As she said, "Hame tab akal naheen thhee! I had no insight at that time!"

latter Tara Buty came regularly for Shi Nathji Darshan when Shri Nathji was in Nagpur in 1978 and 1979. When 23rd of June 1979 came upon Shri Nathji at Nagpur – the auspicious 77th birthday of Shri Nathji. Priya Nath promptly arranged for the Dhanwate Rang Mandir at Nagpur, the most prestigious hall of the city. Then Tata Buty introduced Shri Nathji to the gathering and said to them:
 "God Himself – Saakshaat Bhagwan – is sitting before us. It is our good fortune that he is here with us today when the entire world awaits him.

 On 31st December 1979 She Nathji came with Pran Nathji and Priya Nathji from Mumbai by flight to Nagpur. Plane landed at night. At Nagpur airport there was not a soul in sight. Shri Nathji had not sent a telegram to anyone at Nagpur, and so there was no one to receive them.
Just when it appeared that there was no way of getting to the city from Nagpur airport at that hour of the night, a miracle took place.
Smt. Tara Buty suddenly appeared on the scene. She had no idea that Shri Nathji would be at the airport. In fact she did not even know that he had gone to Bombay and was returning. She had come to the airport to see off a relative. She was surprised upon meeting Shri Nathji at the airport and bowed before him. Shri Nathji said to her: "I had sent out my waves to you–that is why you are here. It was ordained that only you receive me at the airport!"
And thus it was in Tara Buty’s car that Shri Nathji, Pran Nath and Priya Nath returned to their residence at Nagpur.

The Morna Dam

 One night in 1978 when Shri Nathji was in Akola, His voice took on a terrible, thunderous aspect, his countenance became awesome, he raised his hands in the air, sprang forward from his chair and warned the powers of darkness to desist from their works of destruction. His voice roared out loud:

"MAIN ASURI BAL KO CHETAAVANI DETAA HOON KE DUNIYAA KI KOYI SHAKTI BHAGWAN KI TAAKAT KE SAAMNE NAHEEN RAIH SAKTI!

“I WARN THE POWERS OF DARKNESS THAT NOTHING CAN STAND BEFORE THE POWER OF GOD!"

It appeared as if some calamity were about to strike Akola.
That very night, even as Shri Nathji was saying these words, Akola had been hit by a terrible flood.  Hundreds and thousands of people were uprooted from their homes, scores of houses washed away, there was destruction and devastation as the raging waters sought to engulf the entire city. The Morna River was in spate from the incessant rain. The dam was threatening to burst.
But Shri Nathji’s words had filled the atmosphere with his spiritual strength.
The moment Shri Nathji uttered his powerful words in a commandment, the flood began to subside, and in an incredibly short time, almost within hours the raging waters receded miraculously.
The city was saved from doom. The citizens of Akola had escaped a dreadful calamity in store for them. It was Shri Nathji once again re-writing destiny, erasing the parts he did not like and adding fresh ones.
All the newspapers in the country carried the news of this sudden calamity, begun and halted within so short a time.
No power of man could have halted the unleashing of Nature’s wrath. Only He, who controlled Nature, could halt it.

Pramila Tai Hall

When Shri Nathji visited Akola in 1978, He was given the honour reserved for the highest dignitaries visiting the city–a reception at the famed Pramila Tai Hall of the city.
The Pramila Tai Hall of Akola saw a scene the likes of which it had never seen before. The intelligentsia of the entire city had turned out to listen to Shri Nathji's words that night.

  Latter on 22nd of June 1978, Shri Nathji's lecture was organized at Pramilatai Oak Hall as part of Shri Nathji's birthday celebrations. It rained heavily that day, but the Hall was well filled, though not packed.

 On 23rd of June on the day of the birthday, a celebration with a sermon, bhajans, aarti, prasaad, was held at the Pramila Tai Hall. The entire hall was packed with people. The devotees, Bal Bhagat, Bal Ojarkar and others had sung their songs. People were waiting with breathless expectancy to listen to the words of Shri Nathji even as he sat before them glowing with heavenly light.
Shri Nathji said in a powerful thundering voice:

“MAIN MUKT HOON! NITYA MUKT HOON!

I AM IMMORTAL! I AM ETERNALLY IMMORTAL!

“And yet, there is no one in greater bondage than I am. And I shall remain in bondage until the last man is set free!
