Guest guest Posted June 25, 2005 Report Share Posted June 25, 2005 STONE ON WHICH BABA SAT This stone is placed in the center of the eastern wall of Dwarakamai in a small Mandap. Baba used to sit on this stone facing west. Marble Padukas were installed on this stone. The legend has it, that this stone was in Lendibagh. Abdullah, like the other villagers, used to wash clothes on it. Then they saw Baba sitting on it. So they brought it to Dwarakamai and venerated it as Baba's Asan. BIG PORTRAIT ABOVE THE STONE D.D. Neroy of Bombay was a great devotee of Baba who made many photo prints of Baba with one of the eleven sayings. Usually he would write, "If you look to Me, I look to you ". He was a photo merchant and made this beautiful photo. It took him three years to get this photo painted and one and half months to frame it. On the advice of Kamu Baba, he presented it to the Sansthan to be kept in the Sabha Mandap. He has signed only one photo of Baba and this photo is in the Mangal Karyalay. Baba has given Sakshatkar (darshan) from this photo with blessings and healings. (Adopted from Ambrosia In Shirdi by Dr.Vinny Chitluri, this book can be read at http://saileelas.org/books/ambrosiainshirdi1.htm and this book is a virtual guide on Shirdi with lots of rare photos on Baba) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
