Early experiences (January through December 1997)
Initially we did not understand the importance of these
incidents and therefore did not document the incidents as they
happened. The practice of writing and recording these happenings
with exact dates and times began much later in the year. Therefore
some of the experiences when recalled from the memory lost the exact
date but shows approximate time frame of the incidence.
Experience #1 (some day between Jan and February of 1997):
For many years, in the morning before going to work, Dolly
had followed a simple ritual of burning incense in her little shrine
(Mandir). One day she noticed that she had run out of matches in the
drawer underneath the Mandir and was down to the last match stick.
She burned the incense that day, and thought she will bring more
matches from the stock of matches downstairs so that she will have it
handy for next day puja. But later she forgot all about it.
Next day morning as she was opening the drawer she realized
that she did not bring the matches from downstairs, but to her surprise,
right in the middle there was a single match stick almost four inches
long (which is twice the size of normal match stick) and it had an
unusual silver tip. She wondered where it came from, who kept it
there, etc. She showed it to me and I did not know anything about it.
Then she went ahead and lit this match stick striking against the used
up empty matchbox of yesterday and lighted the incense. To date, we
don't know how this unusual looking match stick got into the drawer.
Experience #2, February 21, 1997 (date could be plus minus couple
of days)
In Dolly's words "I was preparing a power point presentation on
my computer for an important meeting at work. All slides in this
presentation had the color scheme that I had selected plus a picture of
the globe at the bottom right hand corner. After finishing the slides I
had to print them, which takes a while, so before starting the printing I
took a quick break for the ladies rest room. When I came back, I
