A Good Star

By Philippe, Quebec, Canada

In August 2013, I had a work accident in my right shoulder. I was not working for many months but I kept my salary. As usual, the company I work for did contest the work accident and they took me to court. I was highly stressed since I’ve never been to court before.

A month before I was scheduled to testify, before I went to bed, I talked to the Mahanta, the Living ECK Master and told him, “Here Mahanta, I put at your feet all my stress, my worries and all the documents concerning the court.” I did this many times during the month.

Finally, the day came. We were in the court room, me and my lawyer, the employer’s representative, her lawyer and a doctor hired as an expert for the employer. All of us in front of the judge and two experts to help him. The lawyers discussed a little and we took a break. Strangely, the lawyers went to a room to discuss privately.

After twenty minutes, they came out with an agreement. I won’t have to testify. It’s over and I’ve won. My lawyer came to me and said, “I’ve rarely seen this. You must have a good star above your head.” I just answered, “I must have indeed.” But inside of me, I thanked the Mahanta, the Living ECK Master.
