SRI SAI BABA'S GRACE (JUNE 1986)

[Guest guest]

I was also feeling bad about the death of the child. For about 5 minutes, I

was praying to BABA desparately. Then Baba told me you are a doctor and you

should go and see the condition of the child. I took out a kerchief, went

near the child and wiped blood off her face and mouth. The child which was

dead for all practical purposes, by the grace of Baba cried out loudly. I

was surprised that the child was alive even though, it did not breathe for

more than 5 minutes. It was a medical surprise and the child survived by the

grace of Lord SAI. By that time, a number of villagers with sticks who were

passing on the road stopped there menacingly. I asked for some water and it

was given to me by the daughter of doctor Rajan. I lifted the child and took

it to the nearby milestone and kept her there. By that time some one had

informed her mother that the child was dead. She came crying loudly with a

dejected face. As soon as she came near, and found that her child was not

dead, I could see a sudden transformation. I saw BABA's miracle which

transformed the expression on her face into one of delight and joy.

 

She came and hugged the child and was about to take the child away, but by

that time the police sub-inspector and a constable along with Dr. Rajan

arrived in time. They were all surprised to see that the child was alive

after being dead, Dr.Rajan attributed this miracle to BABA. He along with

his daughter and son-in-law prostrated on the road itself and I transferred

their obesience to BABA. He even repented for not having taken a bath and

worshipped BABA as suggested by me.

The police sub-inspector detained the child and wanted me also to stay till

all the investigations were over. I pleaded with him about my inability to

remain there as I wanted to catch the bus specifically arranged at Bangalore

to go to Bangerapet at 12 noon. When the police sub-inspector refused me

permission to go all the villagers joined together calling out that I could

go without caring for his advice. And when the line bus for Bangalore

arrived they all stopped the Bus and called out for my box and bedding in

the car. They took them and deposited them in the bus and asked me to get

into the bus, without caring about the police. I came away and joined the

others in the proper time.

 

Later on I learnt that Dr. Rajan and other were left off after two hours by

the grace of Sri BABA, and the whole episode closed because the child

revived after being dead. Then they also became ardent devotees of BABA

after this incident.

I pray to Lord Sai. SAI BABA to shower His grace on all the devotees.
