and the car did not even have a scratch. How I survived that accident I<br />

can't understand, I don't believe that it had anything to do with my driving.<br />

It felt like somebody else was expertly controlling what was going on.<br />

Interestingly where I left the road was the only spot where there was slope<br />

onto the field while the rest of the road prior to and after the accident spot<br />

had ditches on both sides of the road. I came home and related the<br />

incident to the family, and we all felt grateful to God for saving us from<br />

major potential mishap.<br />

Experience # 9 (August, 1997)<br />

<strong>Dolly</strong> was in Washington DC on a business trip. She had taken<br />

along couple of books to read during the trip. Late in the night in her hotel<br />

room she was reading a specific chapter from Sathya Sai Baba's book<br />

where Baba was invited to a temple to install Lord Shiva's image. He was<br />

telling the audience that it took 18 years to get the image ready for<br />

installation and further it was being said that it is no fluke, 18 is an<br />

auspicious number and there is a specific reason why it took so long etc.<br />

Right at that minute <strong>Dolly</strong> heard this voice telling her "count the<br />

diamonds in your ring, now this ring is also lucky, it has 18 diamonds". At<br />

this point <strong>Dolly</strong> stopped reading and looked at the ring that she was<br />

wearing, for the first time she counted the diamonds in the ring and found<br />

them to be exactly 18. And, while counting the diamonds she noticed for<br />

the first time that one diamond was missing from the ring. In other words<br />

originally there were 19 diamonds, and sometime during that day or some<br />

day since last observed, one diamond must have fallen off somewhere and<br />

thus leaving behind a total of 18.<br />

Normally something like this she would get fixed right away but<br />

she chose not to ever replace the missing diamond.<br />

Later she found out that Vedic scriptures indicate that all multiples<br />

of number nine is supposed to be auspicious.<br />
