Guest guest Posted September 7, 2008 Report Share Posted September 7, 2008 Sai Brother Satish had recently been to Shirdi. He took prayers of many devotees which were kept at the lotus feet to Sadguru Sainath. He returned yesterday and dropped in few lines about his experience which he wished to be shared with other members of Sai Community. I was just speechless after reading the whole incident. OM SAI NATHPlease find below details of MY SHIRDI TRIP and my experience with SAINATH.I Stared for SHIRDI on Wednesday. My train was at 8pm. I boarded the train and occupied my berth. I was really tensed because this was the first time I was traveling alone to such a distant place. I had been to SHIRDI before couple of times but this time I was alone. I was really tensed but had faith in baba that everything will be fine and I knew that baba is always with me to protect me. When I woke up in the morning I could see some Sai devotees singing baba's bhajan. They kept singing baba's Leelas and it was really good to hear those. By around 10:30am I went and told a Sai devotee that we will sing Afternoon Aarthi by 12:00, to which he agreed.By sharp 12 noon we all stared baba's Aarthi by placing baba's photo in front of us. The atmosphere was electric as all of us sang baba's aarthi in a single tone. After completion of Aarthi we all took baba's blessings and we all departed. I came back to my berth.After some time I could see an old man coming towards our coach asking Bhakta, I noticed that no one was giving that old man anything and he was just marching towards me calmly. When he came near me I gave him a brand new DHOTI which I was carrying. I had purchased a new DHOTI before I boarded train on the advice of a Sai devotee.When I gave that old man Dhoti he was very happy and placed his hand on my head and blessed me saying "baba will bless you son". After blessing me he placed his JHOLI (bag) in nearby place and started searching for something. After searching for some time, he took 10-15 brand new Sai baba's photo from his bag.Everyone present over their were shocked to see brand new photos with that old man because he was very poor looking and no one expected photos of Sai with him in his bag.He took all the photos outside and after much shuffling gave me 2 photos of Sai baba. In one photo Sai baba is seen inserting his hand in a big bowl of rice. He told me " see how Sai baba is preparing food for his devotees, can anyone do this".....When other persons near me saw that old man was giving photos, they also started asking for photos with that old man. The old man became very angry and told them - " see he has given me DHOTI so its my responsibility to give him something, so I gave him photos, "those who give me, I give to them" . I could feel Sai baba within him. (Sai Brother Satish has sent the snap of the two photos which were gifted by Sai Baba and I have uploaded it here with the write up. Sorry for the bad quality, but we are fortunate that we can atleast see what Sai Baba has gifted him)He also told them "you are coming from far places and are spending so much but still there is no use if you do not give anything to poor people.After telling this he left happily.After that old man departed. A person in front of me told that he was really surprised because that old man had so many brand photos of Sai. He was looking very poor and no one expected those photos in that dirty bag.I was very happy that yet again Sai baba blessed me.......Read More © Shirdi Sai Baba Life Teachings and Stories --Posted By Hetal Patil to Shirdi Sai Baba Life Teachings and Stories at 9/07/2008 05:38:00 AM Sai Nathay Arpanastu Anant Koti Brahmand Nayak Raja Dhi Raj Yogi Raj Para Brahma Shri Sachidanand Sadguru Sai Nath Maharaj Ki Jai!!!
