Yes, I do so out of love. It is a part of the ashta siddhis (the 8 supernatural powers acquired through Yoga). I do not believe in them. There is absolutely no change that they can cause in the person. It only causes the people to be happy, that’s all.

Swamiji will use miracles in the beginning to help the person establish faith in Him. Causing a spiritual tilt in you itself is a great miracle. Can miracles be a measure of the yogic powers acquired by a person? No. If that were to be true, I can teach children those magic tricks. Will you, just by seeing children perform magic tricks, call them great Yogis?

There are so many who perform miracles. After all it is one of the supernatural powers acquired through Yoga, that’s all. I do not need the certificate that I perform great miracles. Such a level I do not seek. What you are getting from me is most important.

Most of the devotees who come to me have never seen any miracles. Swamiji will not show them any miracle. Swamiji shows them the miracles after they have achieved a friendship with Him. They have come to me out of love for spirituality and not because I perform miracles.
