BHOPAL
GAS TRAGEDY
2nd
Dec.1984
A
big industrial disaster caused on 3rd of Dec.1984 killing
thousands of people & thousand of people still suffering
from poisons after effect of MIC gas leak. Madhavashram
personnel & staff went to take stock of the affected area
of MIC gas leak which is 12kms away from here The Madhavashram
volunteers served the affected people & gave their services
at the hospitals to alleviate the suffering of affected
people.
Madhavashram volunteers acquainted people of gas-affected
areas & several groups of volunteer were sent to perform
daily Agnihotra regularly for about 2 month in these areas.
Agnihotra ash medicine and Agnihotra eye drop were also
administered on the gas-affected people. The results were
highly beneficial & wonderful. The people felt health recovery
who was in great pain due to affected eyes. People suffering
from respiratory problems, heavy cough troubles, throat
infection etc were benefited from Agnihotra medicine in
combination with Agnihotra charged atmosphere within few
days of time. One American Agnihotra practitioner Mr. Barry
Rathner who stayed at Madhavashram for one month long to
work for the gas affected people.
A unique experience came to notice on the day of disaster
when one Mr. Shankarlal Kushwaha with his family members
on hearing of the loud noises from outside tried to eagerly
look out of their house by opening the doors and windows
wide open: the gas had already enter his house. Shri Kushwahji
immediately ignitate the fire and started performing the
"Mahamurtunjya Yangna". It was notice about after 10 min.
people fleeing away to safety started gathering near Kushwaha's
place where purified atmosphere was built up by the performance
of Mahamurtunjya Yagnya. This was also an experience that
persons and their family members who were already doing
Agnihotra daily were not at all affected by the MIC gas
poisons effect.
Lots of people in the affected area later on started doing
daily Agnihotra after the gas tragedy. Doctor's diagnosed
and advised pregnant women then to go for abortion because
foetus would be affected. Surprisingly the pregnant women
who did and started Agnihotra were blessed with the healthy
child on delivery.
It is thus proved that the Agnihotra has tremendous power
to ward off and negate the poisonous and toxic affects in
the atmosphere due to pollution.
