Yugarishi’s Advent
and India’s Destiny
=Pt.ShriRam Sharma Acharya
India too
could not remain unaffected by this freedom struggle of Bangla Desh. Those who
could not bear the prevailing fiery circumstances started fleeing the country;
and for them the natural destination was India. The number of people reaching
India went on increasing from thousands to lakhs to crores. India had to bear
the burden of feeding these refugees. Those days, the resources were meager; so
by levying extra taxes on citizens, the Indian Government was somehow managing
the situation.
Not
satisfied with the brutal torture of the people of Bangla Desh, the rulers of
Pakistan, under the compulsion of political upheaval, declared war on India.
The pressure started increasing on eastern and western borders from July 1971,
which took the shape of full-fledged war within a few weeks. Those days it
appeared that the super powers too were with Pakistan. There was fierce
fighting on both the fronts. Within 2-3 days Pakistan’s army was losing the war
and it started retreating. When the countries friendly to the attacker sensed
the marching forward of Indian army on the Bangla Desh front, they started
preparing to take the matter to the Security Council; and USA was leading this
initiative. The purpose of such an exercise was obviously to put moral pressure
on India.
USA did
not stop here. It also increased strategic pressure by ordering its Seventh
Fleet to move towards Indian Ocean. At that time it was world’s mightiest
warship which carried a fleet armed with warplanes, missiles, guns and
sufficient arms and ammunition. From strategic point of view, it was so
powerful that it could change the outcome of Indo-Pak war. At that time, Indian
Navy too was not strong enough to confidently face the might of the US naval
power. As Indo-Pak war turned fierce, the decision in India’s favour was
certain within a week or ten days; but after the Seventh Fleet started moving
towards Indian Ocean, the circumstances took a different turn. However,
suddenly news came on the morning of 7 thDecember,
1971 that the Sleet Fleet had reversed its direction and that it was moving
away from Indian shores.
What
happened? How the circumstances changed overnight? There was no political
initiative, no pressure of world polity. Analysts, who are pioneers in American
administrative procedures, say that after reaching this stage, Pentagon
(America’s Defence Headquarters) never changed its decision. There is no
instance, of ordering a naval fleet to move forward and then ordering it to
return, in the history of America or any other country. Why did the Defence
Ministry of America reverse its decision? The power of declaring or stopping
the war rests only with the American President. What was the sudden compulsion
confronting the then President, Richard Nixon, which forced him to retreat?
Strategic analysts could not find the answer to this puzzle till date.
Was there
any Divine intervention? At that time too, there was such a curiosity among the
people having faith in God. One sadhak Mohan
Devangan of Rajnadgaon (Chhattisgarh) dreamt in the early morning of December
7, 1971 that the American Fleet after crossing the Indian Ocean was entering
the Bay of Bengal. It was crossing the border of Sri Lanka and was accelerating
its speed every minute. There seemed to be no visible signs of the place but it
appeared the warship was right at that point where Rameshwaram Bridge was
built. At that spot some stones seemed to be floating. On those stones ‘Ram’
was engraved. The sadhakwho was watching this scene in
the dream further saw that a warship (obviously Seventh Fleet) was passing
through that region.
Suddenly
there was a flash of lightening and a hand with a clinched fist rose from the
sea water. First of all the fist appeared, then the forearm, the elbow and the
hand seemed to be touching the sky. The fist then opened up and the palm got
wider and slowly fully covered the warship. The next moment the situation
became normal. The sea appeared calm. The Sadhak in
the dream was realizing that the shape of hand appeared to be similar to the
one holding ‘Flaming Torch’ (the emblem of our mission).
Thanks
GOD, Thanks Sadguru,
