Snake Bite
While the Gondal mandir was being built Yogiji
Maharaj and the sadhus lived in a hut built of mud and brick. One
night a venomous black cobra bit the index finger of Yogiji Maharaj's
left hand. As a result of the poison the pain quickly spread throughout
his body. Shastriji Maharaj requested that Yogiji Maharaj be brought
to the Akshar Deri immediately. Then at the instructions of Shastriji
Maharaj everyone started chanting the holy name of Swaminarayan. After
12 hours the effect of the poison subsided and Yogiji Maharaj opened
his eyes. Everyone was convinced about the power of the Swaminarayan
Mahamantra and holy Akshar Deri.
