Guest guest Posted April 11, 2004 Report Share Posted April 11, 2004 BABA GUIDES US Baba said, "There is no difficulty. The guide will take you straight to your destination" in Sri Sai Satcharitra Ch. II. In 1923, a prospective bridegroom had seen Sri Moreshwar Balakrishna Chowhan’s sister and had agreed to marry her. He said a formal letter would be sent in a week’s time. Six months passed, there was no letter, nor the gentleman showed any inclination. Sri Chowhan’s mother, an elderly lady was worshipping Baba every day and she regarded Baba as no different from any other deity. The elderly lady became desperate and one day she cried out before Baba’s photo – venting her anger and desperation. That night she saw Baba in her dream who told her not to be angry with Him. She dreamt that while she was serving food to her son at 9 a.m. a postman delivered a letter of acceptance from the hesitating party. She woke up, but forgot about the dream. Just as she was serving food to her son at 9 a.m. the postman dropped the letter, she had dreamt. She at once recalled the dream, and shed tears of gratitude to Baba. Sri H.S Dixit, a solicitor and advocate of Bombay, had earned quite a lot of money in his profession and was at the same time very generous and philanthropic. He had given up his lucarative practice and had stayed with Baba in Shirdi continuously since 1910. When his wife once complained to Baba, that Sri Dixit is neglecting his profession, Baba told her, that He is there to look after her husband’s welfare temporal and spiritual. After Baba’s Mahasamadhi, it happened, that Sri Dixit, had run into a debt of Rs. 30,000 and wondered how he was to meet it. He was in a quandary, and sitting in his office in Bombay in 1923, wondered, that if only Baba were alive today, his problem could have been solved. The time for repayment was approaching, and he did try all sources but found he had no where withal to meet that amount. Just then, a young man approached him who introduced himself as Sri Dixit’s old acquaintance’s son, that he heard his father often mention about Sri Dixit’s reputation and integrity, and that he had come with Rs.30,000.00 to be given for safe keeping. Sri Dixit, apprised his friend’s son of the predicament in which he was placed, and that he would be unable to repay that amount if required soon. The friend’s son placing that amount in Sri Dixit’s hand said that he has full faith in him and that he can repay that amount, when he can.
