Baba Fulfills Devotee's Desire

Sri Sainath Maharaj provided an opportunity to me to visit Bhuvaneswar in

February. Sri D. V. L. Narayana Murthy and Maj. E. B. Patro, also a Sai

devotee, joined us in Bhuvaneswar. After visiting Puri, Jagannath and

Konark, we went to Dhenkenal - where a beautiful Baba Temple has come up in

a spacious eight-acre area near Kapilas, about 12 kilo meters from the town.

 

After participating in the Muhurath of Baba's installation on Thursday

(21SI) in the morning, we wanted to visit the nearby Kapilas shrine on the

hills near the Baba's temple. All the three of us were waiting for the bus.

No bus came for almost one hour. When a bus came and stopped after one hour,

we tried to get into it. But there was no space, not even to keep one leg.

So we came back. I said that if Baba wills, he will take us there. " Just as

we entering the main gate, a Baba devotee, Sri Chopra was taking some

Pundits to Kapilas. He offered to take us along with them to the Kapilas

Hills by car. We were surprised at this offer, as it was not even five

minutes since I said 'If Baba wills he would take us there.”

 

At the Hills, there is a beautiful temple and a Shiva Linga. There along

with the Pundits, we also performed Abhisheka chanting Rudra, Chamaka, Sri

Suktha, Purusha Suktha, Durga Suktha, etc. This was a bonus granted to us by

Sai Mother. We were immensely pleased with Baba's concern and compassion to

his children.

 

Baba showed His kindness once again. We were returning to Bangalore the same

evening. We went to Cuttack by bus, waiting there at the Railway Waiting

Hall. As there was about half an hour for arrival of the East Coast Express,

our friend, Maj. Patro, went to have his bath. Meanwhile, the train arrived

before the scheduled time. So were informed the same to Maj. Patro. He told

us to proceed and he would join us. We kept his wrist watch, spectacles

which he had handed over to us to look after near his luggage, and we went

to into the bogies. Maj. Patro also joined us after some time with his

luggage. But he forgot to take his spectacles, without which he was

helpless. While the train was about to start, a gentleman who was sitting in

the retiring room noticing the spectacles came and handed over the same to

him. It is a miracle of miracles how he came to know the bogie number and

remembering the person handed over his spectacles. Baba has no limits for

His love and concern for his dear children.
