SAIBABA'S KINDNESS (March 1986)

This incident took place last year around December. I had changed my

residential place and bought a new place without my old place being sold. My

commitment to the person from whom I had bought the flat was to be met and I

was in total financial mess. Sai probably realised my plight and helped me

through timely arrival of LIC Claim funds from my wife's uncle who had

expired about six months back, nominating my wife as one of his

beneficiaries. Thus I could overcome temporarily my financial commitments

with the help of this remittance and some loans that I could raise.

 

Soon thereafter I could get a buyer for my old flat and I approached the

Society to admit him as a member so that i could complete the deal. The

Society, however had some reservations in admitting him as a member as the

proposed member was not a South Indian. The Society only preferred a South

Indian and hence the proposed buyer of my flat could not be admitted as a

member. My buyer however was prepared to go ahead with the deal and fight

out the issue with the society. I was very upset, as when I had a buyer for

my flat, the Society was creating problems and I did not wish to create ill

feelings with my past neighbours or the members of the Society with whom I

had stayed for past 20 years.

 

I had planned my visit to Shirdi between the period Dec. 21st to 24th and

as planned I visited Shirdi and had Darshan of BABA. When I returned, I was

informed that another party had approached for purchase of my flat and that

the other party hailed from South India. The very next day, early in the

morning the second party arrived again and wanted to complete the deal as

they were very keen to buy my flat. When I approached the Society again with

the proposal of the second party's admission as a member, the Society was

too glad to accept the second party as a member. The deal then went through

very smoothly, without any problems whatsoever. I ascribe the whole incident

to BABA'S Kindness but for which I do not know what would have happened.
