Ms. S.B. Sai, a student of the second year B.Sc. (Hons) of the Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Learning, Anantapur Campus narrates her experience of the Divinity of Bhagavan in her own words.

'The year 1982 ushered Swami into the lives of my parents. Not a day passed without Him blessing them with His sambhashan. Swami allowed them to bask in close divine proximity. Sai's command was their very breath and His assurance remained their constant life-force.

Bhagavan and I often enacted the 'doctor-patient' role. One such game was played when I was ten years old. Being a chubby kid by birth, my puffy cheeks were interpreted as the most endearing feature in me. Little did my parents realize that the cause for that puffiness was sinusitis. The doctors stated that mucous collected in my cheeks gave it that puffy look. They advised me to undergo a minor surgery. I was petrified by the thought of the theatre and having my nose operated upon. I cried my heart out to the Divine Doctor.

That night, my mother had a dream vision. I was lying on the operation table in my school uniform - a light blue shirt and a navy blue tunic. The doors of the operation theatre opened for the Divine Doctor, dressed in professional attire. With a pair of scissors, a knife and other necessary instruments, He came to me. Stoking my hair, He gave me the assurance that I would be fine. In a jiffy, the operation was completed, and it was a success. Lo and behold! The next morning saw a new face. The puffiness had completely disappeared. My face was normal.'
