121. He began to have many loose motions. Leaving all this burden on Baba, he did not take any medicines or treat himself. He became quite harassed. 122. Mahajani knew that Sai was omniscient. Therefore, he did not describe his difficulties to him. 123. ‘When he wills it, he will grant me relief, on his own’. Having this implicit faith, he bore the disease. 124. ‘Whatever is destined to be suffered, will be! But there should be no break in the puja rituals’. This was the intense wish of Kaka each day. 125. Later on, when the motions became too frequent and were out of control, let us see what he did in order not to have a break in the arati and service. 126. He kept a copper vessel filled with water, on which he

could lay his hands even in darkness, in a corner of the Masjid. 127. He, himself, would sit near Baba, pressing his legs and always remained present at the time of the arati, this being his regular routine. 128. Whenever he got a spasm in the stomach, since the water pot would be at hand, he would go to some nearby secluded spot and return after relieving himself. 129. So be it. When they asked Baba’s permission to lay the flooring, he gave it to Tatya. Listen to what he said then to him. 130. “I am going to the Lendi. When I return from the Lendi, you may start the work of the flooring at that time”. 131. Later Baba returned and sat on his seat. Kaka came in time and started massaging his legs. 132. Devotees from

Bombay came by tongas, via Kopergaon, by train which came to a halt there. They came up the steps with all the preparations for this puja and bowed down to Baba. 133. Along with everyone else, Patil from Andheri also came with flowers, rice and puja items; and sat in anticipation. 134. Just then, in the lower part of the courtyard, in the place where the rath used to be kept, exactly at the same spot the first stroke of the pick-axe

was struck and the work of the laying of the courtyard floor began. 135. No sooner did he hear that noise that Baba shouted strangely. In an instant he became transformed into Narasimha4. His eyes blazed with fury.http://www.saileela s.org/books/ sss/index.
