Gabriel Gargam- a story of spiritual and physical enlightenment


Gabriel Gargam’s story of recovery with the help of the miracle water from Lourdes is not an approved, but is still one of the famous incidents that have ever occurred. This is because he was well known around the people at the shrine. The other reason for this story being foretold, time and time again, because he did not only recover his physical health; his spiritual belief was also reformed to when he had not deviated from the religious path.

Gabriel Gargam was born in 1870 to two catholic parents, and showed great religious promise and energy from his younger years. Sadly, this promise was broken when he reached the age of 15; as he lost his need of spiritual guidance from that time. He got a good job at the postal office, and living a well-endowed life as that. In 1899, he was going to Paris by train. During the journey, the train collided with another one, which resulted in him being thrown off and landing on the snow 50 feet away from the train, and remained there for about seven hours without consciousness. When he was found, he was instantly taken to the hospital; although he was barely surviving then and the lower half of his body was frozen and hence paralyzed. 

Although he survived, but the life was worse than death.  He went from a healthy, large man in small weak person weighing about 35.45kg in a period not more than 8 months. In addition to this, he was also unable to eat any kind of solid substances; he had to survive on liquid food, and even those he could only take once during 24 hours. Even though he received a grant by sueing his company, but the money could not compensate the damage done to his life. The case was already in favor of Gargam. He required two nurses at all times for every little task. He could not even move without any additional support.


One of the aunts of Gargam was a nun of the order of the sacred heart and a strong believer of the abilities of the water. She continuously asked him to go to the lake and benefit from its abilities, as she was sure that he could be cured there, but he ignored all that she said. Finally, after continuous requests of her mother, he decided to visit the lake. At that time, his condition was so bad that he was carried there on a stretcher and even then he fainted for one hour dues to exhaustion. Once he reached there, he got a communion, and then submerged into the water, which put him in a death like state. The people sadly took his body; covered it with a cloth and started their journey back home. On their way back, they stopped to give moving space to a sacred host. While standing there and drinking the sorrow the death, the cloth covering Gargam moved. 

After that he stood up and started walking as if nothing had occurred. His eating issues were also solved, and all this motivated him towards a more religious lifestyle. You could also avail the advantages if the "Holy water from Lourdes"; by receiving the "religious gift from Lourdes" wherever you want.
