In 1928, Sainath, then two years old, had an accident.

As usual he was running about; and one day he fell

down the stairs. There was a heap of the debris at the

bottom. I ran up and was surprised to see him standing

without any injury at all. He told me, ': Do not fear.

Baba bore me up"

 

 

In 1932, Sainath gave his younger brother, Vasudev, a

ring and the later sniffed it into his mouth

instinctively. The ring went down into the throat and

stuck there. There was an alarm and for nearly one

hour every one in the house was excited and

medicaments were tried to induce the throat or stomach

to throw out the ring. Finally I took Sai Baba's Udhi

and put it in the child's mouth. Then inserting my

finger deep within his mouth, I felt the ring and

pulled it out.

 

 

In 1934, the same child Vasudev had measles, pneumonia

and an abscess on the chest. He was getting weaker and

weaker. The doctor was afraid to operate on the

abscess on account of the weakness. I applied

antiphlogistine over the abscess. The abscess was

opened. It was a wide open wound. The doctor would not

help me. So I relied upon my doctor, Sai Baba, and

trusting in him put a bit of his Udhi into the wouud.

The Deputy Collector, Vasant Rao Madhav Jadhav, (now

D. C. at Poona) asked me whether I was confident of a

cure and within what time the gaping wound would be

cured ? I answered "In 24 hours." That night, Baba

appeared in my dream and said, "Why did you say "24

hours ? You should have said 'Immediately.'" I

apologised for my mistake in the dream itself. Next

morning, the wound was healed up. Jadhav wondered and

wanted Baba's Udhi and blessing for his own son aged

4.1/2 years who was down with pneumonia. I gave him

the Udhi on the sixth day of that child's fever. The

very next day the fever stopped, though the attendant

doctor stated that the fever would run its course for

9 days (i.e that it would last 3 days after I gave the

Udhi,). Jadhav sent up his thanks offering of Rs. 7 to

be sent to Sri Sai Baba's Samasthan.

 

 

 

In 1935, ic., last year, milk was being boiled on my

stove. Anand, my two-year-old child, came running up,

stumbled over a stick and fell upon the milk and

stove, Just fancy what should happen in such a case.

One would expect his skin to be scalded hy the boiling

milk and clothes to catch fire. But here the milk was

dashed down on one side and the stove on the other

side; and the child lay between the two neither

scalded, nor catching fire on his clothes.

 

 

 

This year, i.e., 1936, Vasudev and his younger brother

rummaged among the contents of an almyrah and found a

box full of what they thought to be peppermint

lozenges. Vasudev ate some and gave some to his

younger brother. The taste was unpleasant and they did

not eat. much. But what little was eaten made Vasu

smart. His tongue was protruding. My wife inserted her

finger into his mouth and extracted what she believed

to be chunam i,e. lime. We were then shown by Vasu the

packet or box of "Sweetmeats" that he had been

consuming. It was "Pharoah's snakes"—the piece of fire

works that burn out forming ashes that lengthen and

wind about in the form of snakes. We then took him to

the doctor who administered an emetic, which did not

act Then I gave Baba's Udhi and Tirtha - which acted

at once and resulted in his vomiting out all

poisonious stuff he had swallowed. After all this was

over, Vasudev mentioned that he had given the

peppermint to his two - year - old younger brother.

Evidently the latter ate but little, as there was no

trouble. But to expel what little he might have

swallowed: we administered our emetic, viz., Udhi and

water with Baba's name to him and he had a good vomit.
