38. Baba given Darshan to Smt. Sushiladevi Bhatkal as His Holiness Ramana Maharishi.

[Guest guest]

Smt. Sushiladevi Bhatkal told that her family Guru was His Holiness Ramana

Maharshi. We took His darshan so many times. We used to worship His Padukas.

During the Samadhi of His Holiness, we were at Swizerland. They kept His

body for about 3 days. Even then we ware not able to see His last darshan

bodily for which we felt very much dejected. After 15 days of His demise we

reached Madras. At that time, some devotees were collecting subscriptions

for building "Shri Sai Baba Mandir" and approached us for donation and

appraised Baba and told us to go to Shirdi first and took darshan of His

Sanaadhi there. We told them that as our Guru is His Holiness Ramana

Maharshi, we first proposed to get to His darshan first and then to other

places. They told that His Holiness Ramana Maharishi is not different from

Shri Sai Baba. They are one and added that we would realise it, if we

went to Shirdi. Then I visited Shirdi in 2 days on 3-3-1953. I

took darshan of Baba's Photo placed behind the pindi (Shivalingam) in

Baba's Gurusthan. In that Photo Baba gave me darshan as His Holiness

Ramana Maharishi not only to me but to another devotee also by name Smt.

Dongre. I stayed at Shirdi for 7 or 8 days and made parayan of

Baba's Satcharitra and went home with a full heart that Baba is his

Holiness Ramana Maharishi Himself.

Surrender Shri Sai Completely I Stupendous Delectation and Deliverance be

there !!
