My and my wife’s first visit to America (1985)

God granted us each and everything for the pleasure of our life and is still giving more and more. So far I remember, we did not see any sufferings (any problem) in our life. If God gave us some suffering some time, he simultaneously gave us courage and his blessings to face and to solve the same. I am sure and it is certain that God blesses all of us for our welfare and our happiness and prosperity.

After my son’s marriage in 1979 he migrated to America and settled there and all are enjoying their lives. And we had been enjoying our lives in India, as well.

March 1985 was a historical time when I and my wife visited America for the first time. Before that I never thought that the one day we will go to America. At that time we were living in Nor Walk (Los Angles) area. We enjoyed that trip very much and during that period we saw many important places of California State. During that period, our daughter-in law and son started a video store. It was a big store.

Another most important event during that period was an opening ceremony of Guru Ravidas Temple in Pittsburg (California). I along with my family members attended that ceremony which was a wonderful event (June 2, 1985) for us.

ਨੀ ਮੈਂ ਹੋ ਗਈ ਹਾਂ ਹੋਰ ਦੀ ਹੋਰ, ਨੀ ਮੈਨੂੰ ਕੌਣ ਪਛਾਣੇ।
ਹੰਸਾਂ ਦੇ ਸੰਗ ਰਹਿ-ਰਹਿ ਕੇ ਮੈਂ ਭੁੱਲ ਗਈ ਹਾਂ ਕਾਗਾਂ ਦੀ ਟੋਰ,
ਨੀ ਮੈਨੂੰ ਕੌਣ ਪਛਾਣੇ।
ਨੀ ਮੈਂ ਹੋ ਗਈ ਹਾਂ ਹੋਰ ਦੀ ਹੋਰ, ਨੀ ਮੈਨੂੰ ਕੌਣ ਪਛਾਣੇ।

During our visit we stayed here (in USA) for some months and went back to India. That was very important time in our life. We experienced a tremendous change in our life and that visit gave me a third eye in my knowledge. From that period till now our family started making more and more progress. I would like to express my mind in few lines :-
During that visit I, along with my wife, also visited England and Canada and my relatives and friends attended us gracefully and gave us honour everywhere. They also showed us important places of these countries.
