DIVINE EXPERIENCES – HELP UNLIMITED

Rajaballi Mohammed Khoja, Contractor, Turner Road, aged 49, Bandra, Mumbai says:

I saw Sai Baba some eight years or so before he passed away. I went, as I had

heard good accounts from people here. I had work at Nasik and went there. Some

carts of Tanning bark were being delayed delivery at Nasik, even after I went

there. So I had nothing to do and I used my time by going to Baba. I regard him

as a great saint with vast powers (which are possible only to those who have

‘atmajnana’). I went and presented him a coconut and sugar candy. I was not

asked for dakshina and gave none. I asked leave to start the day of my reaching

Shirdi or the following morning. But Baba said, "That man is not yet ready to

deliver your goods." I therefore had no object in wasting more time at Nasik

and spent two or three days in Baba’s company. I had nothing particular to ask

of him. I wanted only increase of faith. I wanted that at my death, I may die

possessed of full Imam or faith so that I may have a good end. I prayed to him

(mentally) for that and asked for his

blessings. He placed his hand on my hand and blessed me. From that moment his

blessings have borne fruit. My faith has steadily increased. Besides that I

have a great benefit from my faith in him and in his udhi. For example five

years back, my she-buffalo was in great travail, in trying to calve. Pained at

her suffering I sent for the Veterinary Surgeon. He tried his best. Especially

as I was the Chairman of the Sanitary Committee of the Municipality he would be

glad to help me in such a difficulty. But he could do nothing. Then I besought

myself of Baba’s Udhi. I placed some udhi on the head of the buffalo and hoped

that Baba would kindly come to its aid. In about ten minutes, she safely

calved; there was no more trouble. There are numerous cases in which I have

used Baba’s udhi, with signal success. I take it myself in this way. I apply a

bit of it on my chest, eyes, forehead and think of Baba. Then all my

difficulties are overcome.

Baba ‘is’ undoubtedly a saint of vast power. "is" I stress strongly. Saints

according to Islamic tradition do not die. They pass from one state to another.

That is all. I have similarly visited tombs of other saints e.g. at Delhi. And I

have gone to numerous living saints e.g. Tajuddin Baba of Nagpur, Baba Jan of

Pune (1928) etc. I have had numerous experiences. These give me earthly

benefits here and strengthen my Imam or faith on which I have to rely at death.

There is a saying, (which I firmly believe and act upon) that once being in the

company of a saint is better than a hundred prayers by yourself.

I have here the porcelain statue and picture of Sai Baba. My family burn

udhbathi before it on Thursdays.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

Does God want our work? Or does He want our love? God wants that we should work for Him with love.

Tamaso Ma Jyotirgamaya ......

High on a hillside, a shepherd is tending his flock when a BMW winds up the

track towards him. A young man in an expensive suit gets out and says, "If I

tell you exactly how many sheep you have in your flock, will you let me have

one?"

The shepherd agrees, so the young man gets out a laptop, connects to a GPS

satellite navigation system, scans the area, compiles a complicated spreadsheet

then tells the farmer, "You have 1586 sheep."

"Correct," says the shepherd. The young man selects one of the animals and bundles it into his car.

"Now" says the shepherd, "If I can guess what your job is, can I have my animal

back?Sure" says the young man.

"You are a management consultant," says the shepherd.

"How did you guess that?" asks the young man.

"Easy," says the shepherd. "You turned up though nobody wants you here. You want

to be paid for an answer I already knew, to a question I never asked, and you

know nothing about my business – Now give me back my dog."
