DEVOTEES' EXPERIENCES OF SRI SAI BABA BY H.H. NARASIMHA SWAMIJI - PART II

[Guest guest]

was crying on account of severe pain in her eyes and he went to Baba for relief.

Baba then told him to foment the eyes with onion. Dada asked "Where am I to get

onion?" Baba always kept some onion with him and perhaps Dada hoped to get his

supply from Baba. But that just arbiter was keeping some designs up his sleeve

and told Dada "Get it from this ayi, Le., mother," pointing to my

mother-in-law. Baba was giving her the chance of reliev­ing her pent up

feelings and taking noble revenge by return­ing good for evil. She told Baba

that Dada had been abusing her that very morning for using onions for preparing

her meal, and that she would not care to give him anything but if it was Baba's

order that she should give him onions, she would. Baba ordered the gift and she

had her grand revenge of doing good to one who had so recently lacerated her

feel­ings. It was in the same year that my mother-in-law was anxious to get

Baba* blessing, to obtain progeny for me. A few children were born before that

but they died when quite young. So at her request, Madhav Rao Deshpande took my

wife to Baba and wanted Baba to give her a coconut as a gift and throw it into

her Padar (Mundani or end of her cloth). Then Baba's eyes brimmed with tears as

he gave the coconut to my wife; and he bade me sit at his feet and massage his

legs. As I was doing so, he made passes with his hand over my back. I felt very

grateful for his kindness and I referred

to the madman's attempt to murder me and to Baba's photo being with me at the

;time as the explanation for my narrow escape. Baba merely remarked, "Allah

Malik Hai. God is the Lord, le.. He orders all things," Then Baba and I

embraced each other. -- to be contdDevotees can read this book from
