MIRACLES OF SHRI SAI BABA (December 1983)

It was the month of January 1972. Myself and my wife were on pilgrimage on

foot. Following in one of our experiences during this pilgrimage. On 16th

January we proceeded from Amrawati reaching Chandur Rly. Station. We rested

there for a while as we were exhausted.

 

Meanwhile two young persons, who were dressed in white, came near us and

said, “Maharaj, why are you sitting here ? All the saints of Maharastra

have gathered there at Nimbhora. You presence is required there, please

come with us”. We were quite surprised with their talk, because we were

quite ignorant about Nimbhora village. Looking at our confused state one of

them said, “You do not worry. We will take you there”. Without waiting for

our consent, they put two tickets for Talani Rly. Station in my hand.

Nimbhora is just near to Talani Rly. Station. They detrained at Talani with

us. Then they departed saying that their mission was over. At that time

five persons came where we were standing. They took us to Shyambaba at

whose residence all the saints had gathered. Meal was served to us and our

hunger was satisfied. Later on Shri Shyambaba took us to the stage, where

the bhajan programme was going on. There was a rush of people there. We

recited bhajans for about an hour in that programme.

 

The gathering started on 16th January 1972 which lasted till 21st. On 21st

the programme of Dahi-Kala was performed, Saints like Shri panhlegaonkar,

Shri Gulab baba, Shri Harihar Maharaj, Shri Gotya Maharaj, Shri Pundlik Baba

were present. All of them were pleased to see us. After our Bhajan was

over, we narrated our story as to how we received the invitation for their

gathering (Mela). Shri Hariharmaharaj said, “You are very lucky. Shri

SaiBaba personally came there to invite you for this occasion. Those

youths were nobody else but Shri Sai Baba Himself.

Now I will narrate a miracle of Shri Sai’s Udi at that place. In Himbhora

there is one primary teacher named Tukaram master. He was then a

rationalist and did not believe in any supernatural power. In that village

he was known as a whimsical man. During our stay at Nimbhora, he came in

our contact. In the beginning he argued deadly with us but gradually he

began to trust us. The gathering ended; but Shyambaba and the villagers did

not allow us to leave the village for one month. Meanwhile Tukaram master

developed full trust in us. At the time of leaving Nimbhora, I gave Udi

(Bhasma) of Shri Sai Baba to a masterji and told him to make use of the Udi

at the time of grave distress and get the experience of the helping hand of

Shri Baba. After that we left the village.
