Texas. Arpit, the seven-year-old son of Dr. Maheshbhai Dave welcomed Swamiji to his house by offering flowers and kumkum. In spite of his young age, Arpit has a profound faith in God.

One night while he was accompanying his mum and a friend of hers to Houston their car got a flat tyre. His mother brought the car to a rest on the hard shoulder but neither she nor her friend dared come out of the car because it was dark. His mother was afraid.

She asked "What shall we do?"

Arpit replied, "Mum, don't worry! We are not alone. Swami is with us. Let us chant the Swaminarayan mantra and remember Pramukh Swami Maharaj!" The two ladies and the young boy chanted the mantra". Arpit's mother and her friend felt reinforced. Plucking up courage, Arpit's mother stepped out into the dark and called the police from a nearby telephone booth. The police arrived and replaced the punctured tyre. On hearing this incident Swamiji blessed Arpit and appreciated his faith in God.
