'SAINIWAS' MUMBAI

DHABOLKAR'S HOUSE

Hemadpant's Simga dinner (Ref. ESS Ch.XL) was performed in this very house,

that is well maintained and kept as is' with all memorablia.

STAIRCASE

The members were about to start eating, when footsteps were heard on these

stairs, Dhabolkar went immediately and °pened the door and saw Ali Mohd and

Moulana Isnu Mujawar with a packet.

THE POTHI

Dhabolkar started writing the 'Sai Satcharitra' in 1910 which was published

in 1929. This Pothi should be in every house, and should be lovingly and

respectfully read. Baba will be pleased by removing ignorance and poverty,

will give knowledge, wealth and prosperity. With a concentrated mind if one

reads atleast a chapter daily, it will give unbounded happiness. This work

should be read at home specifically on Gurupurnima and on other holy days.

"If you study this 'one book' all your desires will be satisfied and Sai

will easily make you cross this 'Bhav Sagar* ". The sick will get health,

poor will get wealth and the mind will get steadiness (Ref. ESS, Phalastuti,

epilogue).

THE DESK

This is the desk at which Dhabolkar wrote the Satcharitra. The place used to

be in the corner of the prayer room just below the original photos of Baba.

At this desk he spent many loving hours writing about the Leelas of Baba and

thus gave us ambrosia.

BABA'SMURTI

This Murti is used for meditating on, and His 'life like eyes' see through

and through you. Many leelas of this murti are stated by Mrs. Dhabolkar.
