77. BABA'S WIT AND HUMOUR EXPERIENCED BY THE DEVOTEES.

[Guest guest]

Baba used to distribute clothes presented to Him during every Shree

Ramanavami. He would give Kupni to Shri Kakasahcb Dixit, Bapusaheb Jog,

Balasaheb Bhate, Madhu Fasle, Balakram, Mukthaiam and about 25 others. The

devotees used to stand in two rows from Dwarakamayee to Chawadi and Baba

moved here and there in the middle. Then Sagun Mheru Naik would come there.

Baba asked him see how the line of devotees is it not good if a gun was hung

in each of their shoulders ? On hearing these Baba's words all would laugh

Baba would also laugh.

Once, a gentleman came to Shirdi, took Baba's darshan and stayed in Shirdi.

He used to take his meals in Sagun Mehru Naik's hotel and had his residence

in Dixit wada. He told to all that he came to Shirdi to offer lands in large

scale to Baba. Madhavarao Desh-pande used to pay his hotel charges and he

asked Baba "Deva may I register the lands in my name". Baba told him "Yes".

Then Tatys Patil asked Baba whether he may register the lands in his name

Baba replied "Yes" and Radhakrishnamai alao asked Baba whether she may

register the lands in her name. Baba replied "Yes". One fine morning he told

to all that he would come with all the necessary stamp papers etc. for

registration and gone away and never returned. Madhavarao paid his hotel

charges to Sagun Mehru Naik. All the above three persons were disappointed

and not the omnipo-tant Baba.

Surrender Shri Sai Completely ! Stupendous Delectation and Deliverance be

there !!
