SAROJINI

MULEY [Kaka Saheb MAHAJINIS DAUGHTER]

Both her parents were devoted to Baba. Hence she was

inculcated into the Bhakti Marg

very early in life. Sarojini was born on May 2nd 1910 at Bandra. She was the daughter of Lakshman

Ganesh Mahajini, whom Baba

called ‘Kaka.’ Mention is made of in various places in the Sai Satcharita #12, 35] Sarojini first visited Shirdi in

1918 along with her father. Baba upon seeing her beckoned her to come close. He

said: this is My Maina [sparrow] then He sat her on

His lap. She visited Shirdi often with her father.

Baba asked them to stay at Shama’s home. The

stay would often be for 5-7 days sometime longer, depending on when Baba gave

them permission to leave.

Sarojini did her primary

education at the Hujurpaga High School Pune. She learned classical music. She played the Harmonium

and Dilruba. As she was very talented she mastered

both instruments. Having successfully passed many examinations, she had numerous

certificates. She married Bhaskar Vinayak

Muley, in 1928, and moved to Indore. Her husband worked in the Holkar State Offices at first, and later was in the

administrative services of Madhya Pradesh. Upon retiring from the services he

did a lot of social work, along with his wife. Sarojini

was an office bearer of the Tukogang Bhagani Mandal, and did various

charity projects.

Once Kaka visited Shirdi and

Baba said ‘He had visited his home ‘Anand Ashram’ in Pune, and found the door locked.’ Upon returning home

he questioned his wife. She confirmed it saying, she had gone to the Ram Mandir at that time. Sarojini

tirelessly worked for Shirdi Sai

Baba Sansthan. She was president of the annual Sai Leela Magazine meeting in

1981.

She took Samadhi on 16.11.1998. Her

daughter with her family live in Indore.
