IF YOU WANT GOD TO LISTEN TO YOUR PRAYERS THEN PRAY FOR OTHERS, PRAY
FOR THE MISERY AND SORROW IN THE WORLD, PRAY FOR PEACE IN THE WORLD, AND
FOR PEACE IN EVERY HEART.
BUT YOUR PRAYERS MUST BE SINCERE AND HEART-FELT NOT JUST LIP-UTTERANCE.
===================================================
MY FATHER HH SHRI BHOLA NATHJI(1902-1992) THE FOUNDER OF THE DAY FOR
PRAYER FOR PEACE IN THE WORLD, HAD THIS EXPERIENCE TO NARRATE:
WHEN HE WAS IN BOMBAY IN 1949, A DEVOTEE OF HIS, A PARSEE GENTLEMAN, JUSTICE NANAVATI, WAS IN HOSPITAL SERIOUSLY ILL.
HH SHRI NATHJI WENT TO VISIT HIM WITH FLOWERS IN HIS HANDS.
JUSTICE NANAVATI BEGAN TO WEEP WITH EMOTION AS HH SHRI NATHJI CAME INTO HIS PRIVATE ROOM.
"JUSTICE NANAVATI, I SHALL PRAY FOR YOU TO GET WELL," SAID HH SHRI NATHJI.
"NATHJI!" SAID JUSTICE NANAVATI: " I HAVE SEEN IN MY MISERY THE MISERY OF THE WORLD. PLEASE PRAY FOR THE MISERY OF THE WORLD!"
SHRI NATHJI SAID IN A MOMENT OF DIVINE INSPIRATION:
"LOOK! JUSTICE NANAVATI! THE WHOLE WORLD PRAYS FOR YOU!"
THREE DAYS LATER THERE WAS A KNOCK ON SHRI NATHJI'S DOOR AT THE FLAT WHERE HE WAS STAYING IN BOMBAY.
THERE WAS JUSTICE NANAVATI STANDING OUTSIDE WITH FLOWERS IN HIS HANDS!
"JUSTICE NANAVATI!' SAID SHRI NATHJI, "HOW DID YOU COME UP TO THE THIRD FLOOR?"
JUSTICE NANAVATI SAID: "YOUR HOLINESS! I CAME IN TWO LIFTS-- THE FIRST WAS THE LIFT IN THE BUILDING AND THE SECOND WAS THE LIFT YOU GAVE ME!"
BUT YOUR PRAYERS MUST BE SINCERE AND HEART-FELT NOT JUST LIP-UTTERANCE.
