Guest guest Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 I want to write a real experience of life which proves that saibaba is still living and helping his devotees all the time. This incident took place 3 years back. i was a student of 11th standard and i did not have much interest in studies i used to roam with my friends and at last i couldnt take up my exams which created a lot of problmes at home. i was very upset. through one of my friends i got to know about a course which i can do first year in india and other two years in singapore. so i got admission into that course and started to work hard so that i could make it to singapore for the next two years. so i prayed to baba before my exams that if i get selected for the course in singapore i would offer him a shawl coming to shiridi. so by babas grace i passed and got selected for the next two years at singapore. but as i had to leave within a week i couldnt go to shirdi that year. so i postponed it to next vacation when i return to india. so after finishing my first sem i came to india and remembered my vow to go to shirdi but forgot about offering a shawl at shirdi to baba. so i reached shirdi in the morning with my friends and booked a room in a lodge. we took bath and freshened ourselves and then thought of going for darshan as it was getting late. so as soon as we came out of the lodge a autorickshaw driver who saw us coming came to us and asked if we needed an auto to go to the temple we said we will go by walk as the temple was very near then he said that its a free service they are providing to the devotees who stay in that lodge. so we went in that auto and he took us to a shop in front of the temple and told us to leave our chappal there and told to buy couconut and all. so we decided to buy only coconut there for offering as i forgot about my promise of offering a shawl there. so he gave us a whole set of pooja items to buy and it was 250 Rs we did not expect it to be so costly. so i said no we dont need it but after a lot of discussion me and my friends decided to buy it and share the amount. so we bought it and suddenly i felt that i should pay for that and told my friends to buy another set which costed only 50 Rs. the one i bought had a SHAWL which i promised to put. and if not baba wanted would i have bought that set worth 250 which had a shawl!!!!!!! but after buying the shawl also i did not remember my promise but i put the shawl on baba. and the main wonder is that the auto man who said its free service did not comeagain to pick us up or was he seen any where around the lodge again till the time i left shirdi the next day evening. i could recollect that i vowed to baba that i will put a shawl if i pass. when i remembered this tears came running down my eyes and i realised that baba is always living though his body is not present and is still helping and taking care of his devotees. this is one of my most unforgettable memories in my life.
