Ambrosia in Shirdi Part-1-Baba's Leelas before 1918

[Guest guest]

Leela 26

In the early days, the Bhills often waylaid the trains. In 1914, Ganpath D.

Kadam and his family were trav­elling by train to Shirdi. Just after they

passed Nasik, a gang of Bhills jumped into their compartment, with the intent

to attack and rob the passengers. At that time, Kadam was reading a book of

holy songs. The gang stood by his side for five minutes or so. Thinking that

they were interested in the book, Kadam started read­ing it loudly. After a

while the Bhills left one by one. Kadam looked up from his book and saw a Fakir

seated opposite him. When he looked again, the Fakir had disappeared just as

the Bhills left.

When Kadam reached Shirdi, Baba said, "Well, have you come safe and well

guarded?" Kadam at once fell at Baba's feet and thanked Him for guarding him

and his family. He also realized that the Bhills took to their heels fearing

the Fakir."Gurur Brahma Gurur VishnuGurur Devoh Maheshwar;Gurur Shakshat
