Baba's love for HIS devotees: part 24 Mrs.Chandrabhai Borkar

[Guest guest]

Mrs. Chadrabai was an ardent devotee of Sai Baba. She

visited Shirdi now and then but her husband Borkar

never did. But as he was his devotee’s husband, Baba

showered his grace on him too. In 1909 when Borkar was

engaged in a road construction at Pandharpur,

Chandrabai visited Shirdi and stayed there for some

days. One day Sai Baba said to her, “You had

better go to Pandharpur at once, and I will go with

you. I need no conveyance to travel”.

 

When she reached Pandharpur she was shocked to

learn that her husband had left his work and went

away to Bombay. She had only a little money in her

purse and she had two companions with her. She just

managed to go up to Kurdwadi and there she sat in the

railway station, brooding gloomily about her helpless

state. Suddenly a fakir appeared before her and asked

her why she was gloomy. She gave an evasive reply but

was surprised when he told her that her husband was

at Dhond and that she should at once go there.

But Chandrabai had not the needed fare. Then the

fakir at once handed her three tickets to Dhond and

went away before she could ask him anything. She then

proceeded to Dhond.

 

Meanwhile, Bokar who was at the Dhond railway

Station drank a little tea and was dozing on a bench.

He had a reverie or a dream in which a fakir appeared

before him and said, “Why do you neglect my mother?

She is coming here by the next train, and is in

carriage number so-and-so" and he mentioned even the

number of the carriage. Borkar got up wondering who

that fakir could be. The train arrived and Chandrabai

stepped down from the railway carriage of the same

number as was mentioned by the visionary fakir. Bokar

received her and told her of his strange experience

and asked her to show him the picture of Sai Baba. It

was the same fakir that had appeared to him! Did

not Sai Baba assure Chandrabai that he would go with

her and that he needed no conveyance?
