At Rest in the Light
ECK Master Prajapati Protects My Injured Cat
By CS
Our cat, Minnie, was missing. For a full night and half the next day, we called and called for her, but there was no answer. I was nearly at my wit's end, when I finally remembered the ECK Master Prajapati. Perhaps he could help us.
I sat down and began a spiritual exercise to ask for his assistance.
"Pra-ja-pa-ti," I chanted aloud several times.
We wanted our cat back, but I knew that it was more important that the outcome be the best for Minnie. It wasn't my business to dictate the details.
Within thirty minutes, Minnie appeared at the front door, shivering in the cold. Patches of fur were missing, and she hobbled painfully on a broken leg. With a mixture of relief and concern, we scooped her up and rushed her to the vet.
As we waited for the doctor, I held Minnie tenderly in my arms, chanting Prajapati's name.
Suddenly, I noticed her staring intently over my right shoulder. Following her gaze, I saw something in my peripheral vision.
A globe of golden light about two feet in diameter stood in the waiting room. There was no face, but a warm presence enfolded us in a feeling of deep love.
The vet called us in and began to splint Minnie's broken leg. Instead of struggling, she lay cradled in my arms like a contented baby, filled with love and peace.
As we left the clinic, the receptionist exclaimed, "I just can't believe how relaxed your cat is. I've never seen anything like it."
I smiled as we walked away. I knew the Master Prajapati had held Minnie in the Light of God, easing her pain and fear. I had seen him with my own eyes.
What a wonderful gift of love!
