Guest guest Posted September 11, 2005 Report Share Posted September 11, 2005 Another devotee who had come to Shirdi deposited his balance of Rs. 18/- with Kolambe in secret so that he might truthfully tell Baba that he had no money if he should ask for dakshina. Baba turned to him and asked for Rs. 2/- as dakshina and added, “Take it from this man (i.e. Kolambe) and give it.” The man’s device was obviously found out by Baba! The man then readily paid it!! W.G. Pradhan of Bombay lost his seven-year-old son and was much upset. He later heard of Sai Baba and visited him. Baba angrily said of him to other devotees, “Why does this fool go on lamenting the death of a son? It is merely going to the earth. The body must go to the earth. Why go on lamenting that?” Then he began to describe, in detail, Pradhan’s house and garden and stated even the number of sitaphal and ramaphal trees in it. M.B. Rege was a beloved devotee of Baba. Once he decided to visit Shirdi for Sri Ramanavami festival. While searching for proper gift to Baba in shop he saw a beautiful muslin piece, wondered how beautiful Baba would look when clad in it, purchased it and reached Shirdi. It was customary for Baba to receive such gifts from devotees and return the same to them when Baba was busy receiving and returning gifts to devotees Rege stealthily put his muslin cloth beneath Baba’s seat, unnoticed by anyone. At the end of it all Baba stood up saying “Clear off all that lies on the gaddi(seat) and dust it.” When the mattress was removed Baba picked up the muslin, hugged it saying “How fine is the muslin! I shall not return this. This is mine!” He then put it on and looking at Rege said, “Do I not look beautiful in this?” Source: http://www.saibharadwaja.org Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
