Guest guest Posted July 22, 2005 Report Share Posted July 22, 2005 Sagun’s hotel was situated just opposite the place where pilgrims to Shirdi alighted. One such pilgrim was Tendulkar from Betul District. After taking bath, he had darshan of Sai Baba in the musjid and he invited Baba to lunch with him. Baba smiled and kept quite. This went on for four or five days, and everyday Tendulkar ordered two meals, ate one and asked Sagun to keep one covered up. One night, at 10 o’clock Sagun was cleaning his vessels for milking his cows. A sadhu approached him and said, “Give me the meal kept for me”. Sagun was a little surprised at his demand but served him cheerfully from what was kept covered up. After finishing his dinner, he said, “Call the man who ordered this for me”. Sagun sent for Tendulkar but he was sleeping soundly and did not wake up. “Let it be”, said the sadhu, “I belong to the Nath panth (Nath tradition). Be feeding the hungry like this. God will do you good”. All the devotees of Sai at Shirdi came to know of this incident. Shama asked Baba whether he went to Sagun for meal the previous night. Baba smiled and said, “I ate and returned. If anyone comes to us for food we should not turn him away. If we have nothing to give, at least a little jaggery should be given”. (To be contd....)
