Dakin problem in a school

Dakin problem in a school:
Janardan Maharaj started many ashram schools in Satpuda. Mostly they are remote and in inaccessible area of Satpuda. Ashram School at Danel was one of them. Everything was going well but once one student was bit by a snake and coincidently after a month his brother was bit by a snake. Now people started speaking about the Dakin i.e. witch. It was said that the snake was put in the school by Dakin. As the consequence of it all the students went their home. Nobody was ready to send his children in that school. After waiting for a fortnight Janardan Maharaj brought a Pujari i.e. quack to the school. They pretended to chant some mantras to remove the so called Dakin's snake. Then they spread the news that the Dakin's snake was removed from the school and it was safe to attend the school. And as he expected the students returned to the school. This shows that he has the keys of his community. He always exchanged his thoughts with his community by taking small or big public meetings.
