How Shri Sal Baba Fulfill Wishes of Devotees

How Shri Sai Baba fulfils the wishes of his devotees even to-day. My

wife Mrs. Vilasini Mohan Bijani started saptah of Sai Satcharita written

by Mr. Dabholkar in Marathi. She took leave for 8 days from the office

and started the saptah on Thursday, the 19th October 1978 onwards. The

first day, she kept a naivedya or prasad of dry fruits in a small dish.

Before starting the nam-saptah, she prayed to Shri Baba that since she

is doing it for the first time, He must come to her house or show some

indication of His presence. She got ready with all religious obligations

before Shri Sai Baba's statue, which is kept in our drawing hall. She

took about 4 hours to complete the first 8 chapters of Shri Sai

Sat-Charita. After this, we performed usual Aarti and Bhajan before Shri

Baba's statue. To the wonders of the words, when she took up the prasad

dish to offer to Baba the Naivedya, so as to be distributed among the

persons present there, we found the round pack of Udi lying under the

prasad dish. This miracle is going to prove that if you remember Baba

with your heart's content, He is always there with us to fulfill our

desires. This Udi is the representative sent by Shri Sai Baba. This is

really a miracle.

 

Now I am quoting another incident of Shri Baba's omni-presence, which

shows that He is always with his children. On the fourth day of the Sai

Saptah, my wife was reading 40th and 41st Chapter of Sai Satcharita

where she read that Shri Sai Baba appeared in the form of a portrait in

the house of Hemadpant, when he was observing some religious ceremony.

At that time, the flash of thought came in my wife's mind that since she

is the staunch devotee of Sai Baba, He should also come at least once

during this saptah to our house in one form or the other. After about 10

minutes, a postman knocked at the door. I got up and went to him. He

said that there was one closed cover in my name with the fine of 30

paise. The persons sitting with me tried to prevent me from paying the

fine and accepting the cover; but I immediately handed over 30 paise and

got the closed cover. When I opened the same before all that were

present, Shri Sai Baba and Satya Saibaba, together in a photo, appeared

before us, as if saying you have just remembered me and I am here with

you. So I immediately placed the photo before the reading of Sai

Charita. This is how Shri Baba keeps up the desires of his Bhaktas. The

saptah was thus over with His tall grace.
