He alone will make you free of fear”. 62. Patil’s plight was unbearable. He had arrived at a perilous state of life. ‘When will I meet Sainath? When will I accomplish the task?’ (He thought). 63. Thus Patil became bewildered. He asked that preparations be made quickly for departure to Shirdi the very next day. 64. Thus with firm determination, Patil took leave of all and started for Shirdi for Maharaj’s darshan. 65. Bhimaji took his relatives and set out hurriedly. He was most anxious to know when he would see Shirdi. 66. The cart arrived at the front gate of the courtyard of the Masjid and four persons held Bhimaji and carried him up the steps. 67. Nanasaheb was there. Madhavrao also came along. Everyone found Sai’s feet more easily accessible through that Madhavrao. 68. Looking at Patil, Baba said, “Shyama, from where do you get hold of these scoundrels? And dump them on me? Does this become you?”. 69. Bhimaji put his head at the feet of Sai and said: “Oh, Sainatha, have pity on this hapless creature. Protect me, oh caretaker of the weak”. 70. Seeing Patil’s plight, Sainatha took pity on him. Patil felt assured that his sufferings had come to an end. 71. Seeing Bhimaji so restless, Sai Samartha, the ocean of mercy, was greatly moved and said smilingly: 72. “Sit down and stop worrying. Wise people do not worry. No sooner you stepped into Shirdi, your destined miseries have got over. 73. However deeply immersed in the ocean of trouble or buried deep in the valley of miseries, know that when he climbs the steps of the Masjidmai he will ride on a wave of happiness. 74. The fakir here is very kind. He will destroy your troubles from the very roots and will look after you lovingly. He has tender feelings towards all. 75. Therefore, you be at rest. Stay at Bhimabai’s house. You will get relief within a couple of days”. http://www.saileela s.org/books/ sss/index. 5, 50, 500, 5000 - Store N number of mails in your inbox.
