Talking about miracles and religious belief, an interesting revelation is a visit to Amritsar. Near the Golden Temple, is a gurdwara named Baba Atal. It is a reminder to everyone not to practice any miracles whatsoever.
The story is about Baba Atal, who was the son of the sixth Sikh Guru. Baba Atal had miraculous powers and he was told by his father not to practice them. But Baba Atal, being a child went against his father's directions and brought a dead friend to life. His father, who was the Sikh Guru, Guru Hargobind rebuked his son telling him that no one had the right to interfere with nature. And that loss of life was irreversible.
Baba Atal understood it and went near the Golden Temple and prayed to God to take his life away as compensation.
Today, a nine storeyed building stands in his memory, since at that time Baba Atal was 9 years old.
Wonder, how many who visit the Gurdwara make a vow not to accept/practice miracles.
