Guest guest Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 Dr. Rajagoplaachari (Nellore) was once presented with a picture of Baba by a friend. He got it framed and fixed it on the wall and forgot all about it. One night, a fakir with boils all over his legs, appeared in his dream. Next morning, he casually glanced at Baba’s picture and noticed that he was the fakir. The picture of Sai was eaten up by white ants, exactly up to its legs. The doctor realized that Sai is one with his picture and started worshipping it. Mr. V. Narayana Rao of Hyderabad sums up his experience thus: “In May 1979, we came to know that Sri Bharadwaja was in Hyderabad. Our long cherished wish to meet him was at last fulfilled and I was pleasantly surprised to know that I knew him earlier as a teacher, when I studied, in an evening college. One day he suggested that all of us, devotees of Sai, should conduct a weekly spiritual gathering where we can read the life of Sai Baba and sing bhajans. We commenced the activity on the next saturday in his company. We had the opportunity of meeting him every day as long as he was in the city and clear many of our doubts. He attended our second weekly gathering also. My son-in-law who did not participate in the satsang recounted his experience to me as follows: ‘During the satsang, I was resting on a cot in the open frontyard of our house. Suddenly I went into the house, peeped and looked at Sai Baba’s picture there. At the bottom of the picture was printed his saying. “If you look to me I look to you”. I mentally addressed Sai, “How far is your statement true? I shall believe you only if I am blessed with an experience. Else, I shall consider this satsang as an absurdity.” Then I came into the bed room, stood in front of Baba’s picture there and looked at his eyes. After two or three minutes I felt that the whole room was illuminated with a light of thousands of candlepower. My eyes dazzled and my body felt light, as though floating in the air, I felt something like an electric current passing through my body and I was afraid that I may fall down. At once I addressed Baba mentally, ‘Now I believe you. I shall take your darshan’, and bowed to him. Immediately, I regained my normal state. The mystic current had left me even like the air from a pricked bubble. I believe that it was an experience bestowed on me by Sai in response to my prayer. I only pray that all the members of our group should realize the full significance of such an experience.” Source: http://www.saibharadwaja.org Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
