DEVOTEES EXPERIENCES

by HH Pujyasri B V Narasimaha Swamiji

Appaji Sutar, Shirdi says:

I had in S. 1851, (i.e.) in 1929, boils on my leg, weeping eczema, it seemed. I

spent Rs.200 on Kopergaon Government doctors for cure, but in vain. Shama

(i.e.) Madhava Rao Despande also gave me medicines but to no purpose. Nasik

Hospital, to which I then resorted, gave equally no benefit to me. When I was

an in-patient there for 8 days, one night Baba came to me in my sleep. He said:

"Go back to Shirdi to read puran." But I replied that on account of my suffering

from eczema, I had come to Nasik. Baba replied: "Go on reading my puran and

apply udhi, you will be cured." I then returned to Shirdi. When I came to

Shirdi, Vittal Rao Mahratte was reading Pothi, and he had to go to Siruval. As

I got down from the bus on my return to Shirdi, he came to get into the bus and

told me that there was none to go on with Pothi in Baba’s presence, during the

time he stayed away at Siruval and he asked me to read Pothi. I undertook to do

it (i.e.) to read Jnaneswari by Eknath

Bhagwata, Adhyatma Ramayana and Sai Satcharitra by A. Dabholkar, Thenceforward,

I read these before Sai Baba daily and applied his udhi. In seven days’ time, I

was completely cured of my eczema.

Another experience of mine is this. I owed Rs.350 to a Multan Fatechand Marwadi

of Shirdi. He was threatening to sue me and arrest me for the debt in 1932. I

was frightened. Then Baba came in my dream. He asked me and four others repeat

stanzas from Gita one after the another. They did so and I repeated stanzas in

my turn. Then Baba asked me "What do you want?" I requested that he may be

pleased to relieve me of my debt. He replied that the debt would be removed.

Next morning, my creditor came to my house and wanted me to build a house for

him; and he gave me a written agreement that on my building the house for him,

my bond would be returned. I executed the work in a month or so; and he

returned my bond. I tore it up and cast away the pieces.
