Sai Baba the Master - By E.Bhardawaj

[Guest guest]

The mysterious globe of light which Shri Dholey’s sister had seen just

before the arrival of the three young men at their house is, in my view,

Sai Baba. I was told Shri Mata Anasuya’s revelation that she is indeed the

famous Anasuya of yore was an unique gesture on her part which no one

before could elicit from her. So too the three young men being permitted to

sleep in her room for the night and her unusually cheerful mood in their

presence had surprised a few of those present. All this is Sai Baba’s grace

reaching these aspirants through the physical form of Mata Anasuya. The

truth of this interpretation of the incidents is borne out by what Mr.

Sarath Babu has to supplement to the above details:

 

“As we entered Mr. Dholey’s house we were pleased to notice the photograph

of Sai Baba hanging at the entrance. Mr. Dholey was excited as he read the

letter (of introduction written by Dr. Anil). He received us very cordially

and said, “Your guru (Sai Baba) is always with you. He came here just a few

minutes earlier”, We could not make out what he was referring to. Then he

said, to our surprise, that just ten minutes before we arrived at their

house all the members of his family saw, very distinctly, a blue, luminous

light for about two minutes in their verandah, exactly where we later

stood… the other residents of the village put out lights at 8.30 p.m. and

the Dholeys were all stunned to see the light there at about 9 p.m. As they

were all still discussing the phenomenon we entered their house.

 

In 1967, I was laid up with a relapse of typhoid and was admitted in a

hospital at Chirala (Prakasam Dt. A.P.). I wondered why Baba who almost

always intervened in my affairs to set them right, had allowed this to

happen. One day when I was telling my fellow patients and visitors about

Sri Saibaba and other saints, one of the patients told me that there lived

at Chirala, an old bearded man in rags, with matted hair, and that he never

minded wind, sun or rain. I was told that he continuously wandered from

place to place, resting now and then on the roadside; that he did not speak

to anyone nor did he accept anything from anyone except the one whom he

chose. The fellow patient asked me to see the man described and determine

whether he was a saint or not.
