Sai Baba the Master

[Guest guest]

4-1-1912 : “After 5 p.m., I went to Sayin Maharaj in the musjid and found

him walking about in the compound. My wife also came here. After a time he

took his usual seat and we sat near him.”

 

6-1-1912 : “In the evening there was the usual wada arti and later on we

attended the shej arti at the chavadi. Sayin Maharaj was in an exceptionally

pleased mood, made mystic signs to Megha, and did what are known as

drishtipata (showering spiritual force by look) in yoga.

 

16-1-1912 : “Then we went to see Sayin Saheb at the musjid (at 4 p.m.). He

did not permit us to sit long and came out himself and finished his usual

stroll in a hurry and ordered us to return to the wada. We could not

understand it, but on returning to the wada we learnt that Hari, a servant

of Dixit who felt indisposed the other day died. We did the usual arti in

the wada and attended the shej arti. Sayin Maharaj was particularly

gracious at the latter and sent out wonderful currents of joy and

instruction. He favoured Ram Maruthi similarly.”

 

25-1-1912 : “In the evening stroll time Sayin Baba told me nearly the

whole of the previous history of Laxmibai Kaujalgi. I knew it to be correct

as I know the facts.”

 

27-1-1912 : “Sayin Saheb’s clothes were also washed by Radha Krishna Bai

and he was angry with her for having done so.”

30-1-1912 : “Sayin Baba asked me how I spent the afternoon. When I

mentioned my writing letters, he smiled and said, ‘It is better moving your

hands than sitting idle!’ ”

 

31-1-1912 : “Sayin Saheb was in a pleased mood, talked pleasantly, danced

and sang, and reminded me and others very strongly of what Lord Krishna did

in Gokul.”

 

1-2-1912 : “Before Sayin Baba started on his stroll, he told Mr.Dixit to

give Rs.200/- to my wife who was then shampooing the legs of Sayin Saheb.

The order was unaccountable. Has it come to this that I have to be

maintained by charity? I prefer death to this. Sayin Saheb, I think, wished

to curb and finally destroy my pride, so he is getting me used to poverty

and the charity of others. Being omniscient, he knew everything including

all my innermost thoughts and never insisted on the order being carried out.

Now that my attention has been drawn to the matter, it appears to me that

my wife then did not like the life of labour and poverty. Kakasaheb Dixit

had accepted the life and was happy. So Sayin Maharaj asked him to give two

hundred rupees, i.e., poverty and patience to my wife.”
