Swamiji Cures Epistula of the Mouth

During the eighth month of my pregnancy, i developed severe pain in the gums. I have never had problems with my teeth and it was very unusual that I should develop such pain. An online research revealed that hormonal changes during pregnancy can result in such physical developments. I consulted a dentist immediately. He took a look and said nothing could be done immediately except use a mouth wash and brush the teeth regularly. Since no medicines can be taken during pregnancy, I had to pretty much live with the problem. The pain got worse and I could not even eat food by chewing.

The following week, I bit into an apple and the gum started bleeding. Further to that, I drank some super-hot coffee and the gum pain accelerated further. Finally I woke one morning to find a swollen gum. I initially thought that the mouthwash would heal the swelling. However after two months I noticed that the swelling had become big and I could clearly feel that with my tongue. Even after my delivery it continued to remain and had become so big that it was difficult for me to speak and pronounce certain alphabets. I got very scared.One month after the delivery, I pushed myself to see a general physician. My parents were also extremely worried. I finally got an appointment to meet the doctor. Leaving my month old baby with my mother, I waited in line for my turn. The doctor took one look and said that I would need to see a surgeon. When I met the surgeon, she said an x-ray was required. She further said they would need to operate and remove the swelling and check for malignancy. I was scared, but all the while kept praying to Swamiji and Baba. I got the x-ray done and met her when she finally said there was nothing to worry but surgery was inevitable. I had to be given general anaesthesia and required to book an operating theatre for the procedure.

When I got home, my parents were relieved to know, that there was nothing to worry. However, for me the thought of going through another round of surgery was hard to take. I did not want surgery, I was very clear. I started praying deeply to Swamiji, Baba and also chanted Asmin Paratman shloka (Canto 8, Narayaneeyam). I chanted day and night begging Swamiji for a cure without surgery. Two days later, I strongly felt that I should consult a homeopathy doctor. The next morning, my husband too woke up with the same thought. We rushed to see the homeopathy doctor, who took one look and said there was nothing to worry. It was a swelling of some gland he said. He also said that doctors in big hospitals rush to do surgery without often understanding the cause of the swelling.

He gave some medicine. Despite one month of taking the medicines, the result was slow to come through. I got very worried and continued to pray to Swamiji and chant Asmin Paratman incessantly. On one evening, I suddenly saw a dazzling form of Shri Guruvayoorappan. I could only see the silhouette and more as a light form than as a human form. He appeared and said that I would be cured of this ailment. After four months, the swelling has reduced greatly in size and almost gone. I felt so relieved. Faith in the Guru and God can help us overcome any problem no matter how hard it is. I am sharing this so that others faced with difficulties will gain strength from my experience. Shri Radhakrishna Swamiji Maharaj ki Jai!!! Jai Shree Guruvayoorappan!
