Guru Story 1  ''Main hoon na'' were the three magical words of the Master says Neeta Khemka which she had  failed to comprehend in a state of angst. Neeta, a  french professor  at Alliance Française de Delhi and an Art of Living faculty shares her experience and realisation of the significance of the Master's words. My husband, Alok, had a compromised kidney condition for almost 30 years and in December of 2018, both his kidneys stopped functioning. He was put on dialysis and kept in the ICU. While at the hospital for over a month, Alok developed a fever, had further complications, and the doctors were unable to diagnose the cause.  A team of specialists were attending to him -  a nephrologist, urologist, pulmonologist, including internal medicine experts besides the ICU doctors.
