Guest guest Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 One Janardan Moreshwar Phanse got tired of his dairy routine and made ready for going to Rameshwar. On the way he went to Shirdi and met Baba who told him to go back home because Rameshwar had remained without food for seven days. According to Baba's command he went home with the holy ash and found that his old mother had taken no food or water for seven days and understood the secret of Baba's order. He changed his mind and regarded his mother as his Rameshwar. Plague broke out in his village but on applying Baba's holy ash to the forehead of all, they recovered and Phanse began to be looked upon as a great physician. In a neighbouring village there lived a Marwadi tradesman. His brother fell ill and it seemed that he would not survive his illness. He approached Phanse for medicine. Phanse was no physician but he prayed Baba and slept. Baba came is his dream and gave him directions regarding what medicine to give and how. Phase implicitly obeyed and gave medicine to the Marwadi whose brother was completely cured. Phanse would not take the sum of Rs. 300 that the Marwadi offered as his fee. He said he had done nothing but only followed Baba's instructions and refused to take the money. The Marwadi purchased a headdress worth 300 rupees and placed it in Phanse's house when he was not at home. Some days later, days of scarcity arrived and Phanse was in great difficulty. One Thursday, Phanse offered usual prayers and went to sleep. Baba saw him in a dream and told him about the headdress, asked rim to sell it and purchase rice for sale. He did that and became a properous trader. Make your home page http://www./r/hs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
