There was one more incident that directly hit my own family's faith.

It was the occasion of Diwali some 5-6 years back, and my father and I have this ritual of going on a walk on the same night till the colony gate (2 km dist) everytime after celebrating Diwali.

While returning back, there is a four-way intersection before some distance from my home. And right in the middle of that intersection, I saw a bit of oil spilled there. Just a patch of oil right in the middle. And I didn't pay heed to it and I directly crossed it over.

My father didn't say anything then but he understood what I'd done unknowingly. Late at night, I was studying in the same room where my Mandir is situated and it is built in a way that it is supported by the wall. Around 2 AM one of the supporting bolts dropped off suddenly and

the Mandir fell and tilted in one direction. I immediately woke my parents up and told them what happened. My father fixed it and then sat down and prayed right that instant for sometime. Later in the morning my mother informed me about the totkas that people do at chaurahas and

On the festivals especially. She said all this happened because I crossed the one I encountered the previous night. She said people leave bits and objects influenced by spells or tantra mantra for the naive people to come across it. It was a good thing that all the numerous

Murtis inside the Mandir didn't fall off. Something like this has never happened before and it was perplexing to think how one perfectly embedded bolt suddenly came off like that. It was only later I came to know why it all happened.
