67. Baba Cured the Lameness of a son of Windowed School Mistress

[Guest guest]

In the year 1956, a son of a widowed school mistress has appeared for the

S.S C. examination when he " returned from the last examination day, he was

found to have a bad attack of fever. Proper medicines cured him of the

fever, but he was not cured of lameness of legs brought on account of that

fever. The boy had always to be lifted up for being taken to any place. All

possible remedies were tried but when they proved ineffective, hearing of

Shirdi Sai Baba's powers, the School mistress took the son to Shirdi. On

account of lameness, the boy felt so shy that rather than going to Baba's

Samadhi on the shoulders of a cooly, he preferred staying at the Shirdi

wada. The mother alone had to go to Baba's Samadhi to pray for her sons's

cure for two days. She was to leave Shirdi on the third instant, so she went

to Samadhi to attend Arati and offered her last obeisance before leaving. In

the meanwhile, Baba appeared before the boy said "Have courage". He then

lent him His hand, led him to the temple and kept him standing against the

temple pillar. On return from Arati when the mother did not fisd the son in

the room, she again approached the Samadhi Mandir with all tears in her eyes

most piteously prayed for the recovery of the boy. When she just returning

from the temple, her eyes fell on the boy standing against the pillar. She

enquired of the boy how he managed to come there. The boy narrated how Baba

had helped him to come but the mother would not believe it. However when she

saw that with her support, the boy was able to walk up to their room, she

was very much pleased. The boy fully recovered within a month thereafter and

was able to move and walk freely by Baba's grace.

Surrender Shri Sai Completely*, Stupendous Delectation and Deliverance
