81. BABA RETAINED HIS ABHISHEK THIRTHAM IN A TIN WITH A HOLE IN THE BOTTOM FOR DAYS TOGETHER. AN ESTEEMED JUDICIAL OFFICER WROTE TO HIS HOLINESS B.V. NARASIMHASWAMY, FOUNDER PRESIDENT OF ALL INDIA SAI SAMAJ, MYLAPORE MADRAS-4, ON 25-2-40 My wife is better and I trust it is all due to Shri Baba's grace you will be surprised to hear the following incident. You remember that when you were fore, you wrote to the Sansthan to send me a tin of Abhisekam water for being used by my wife. It was received within a few days after you left and a portion of it was used every day for being poured on my wife's head. After sometime it had to be stopped. But the tin containing Abhishekam water was kept on the table for a number of months. And last month it was removed to the Almyrah and kept here. Yesterday, when my second daughter thinking that it was a tin of oil took it. She found that something trickling out and when she turned it, she found a big hole through which the little finger could pass and then some quantity of water came out. Then she poured the whole water into a vessel. It was surprising that the tin which was

nearly 3/4th full with water in it and with a hole at the bottom through which a finger could pass have retained the water in tact all these days and the further surprise was that the water was as good and clear without any kind of smell and tasty as it was when it was originally. It was created a very good impression on the children and I had the whole thing poured on my wife's head this morning. I am writing after knowing this. Evidently the incident about the Thirtham is to infuse faith. Otherwise, I failed to see why there could have been a hole at the bottom of a tin which was received intact when no one has interfered with it and was merely kept on a marble table for some time and then in a wooden almyrah.

BABA CURED TYPHOID FEVER OF THE ELDEST DAUGHTER OF SHRI RAMACHANDRA AMRITHA RAO DESHMUKH OF SHIRDI AND MADE HIM TO HAVE FAITH IN HIM BY HIS OTHER

MIRACLES I was not accustomed to go to Baba's Mandir even though I am residing in Shirdi. My eldest daughter fell with typhoid in 1961. She was admitted in the Dispensary (Now called Sainath Chhaya guest house). The fever did not abate even after medical treatment in the dispensary. My wife used to give her Baba's Tirtham daily in the morning and in the evening. Even though she was given treatment for 45 days in the Dispensary, she had not improved though not fully cured. Hence we were vexed with her treatment and took her back from the dispensary in the same status as we admitted her. My wife fully relaying on Baba's Thirtham, administered it mixing with Baba's UDI daily twice without using any other medicine, I told my wife that even the medicine proved futile to her and what Baba's Thirtham and UDI will do. She became alright and started to eat within 3 days from the day of her discharge from the Dispensary. She became hale and healthy within a month. My wife told me rather compelled me to believe that Baba's UDI and Tirtham alone cured my daughter and no other medicine. My mother had seen Sai Baba. She used to attend each and every Arati and took Baba's UDI and Thirtham daily. On one day in 1961 at the time of her going for her privy, at about 4 A.M., she accidentally fell into the well by the side of our house. No one was then noticed. At about 5 A.M. those who came for drawing water in the well saw her and took out from the well. The depth of the water in the well was only upto the neck. But the depth of the bottom of the well to the

upper floor level was 48 feet. She was fully drenched in the cold water and remained in the water for about one hour in that old age. After taking her out, two doctors examined her immediately and they told that her survival was depends upon the blessings of Baba as her body became severe cold. Even though she fell from a height to the depth of 48', not even a wound was found in her body by Baba's grace. Doctors were also with full of amazement as to how the old lady was escaped without a hurt and thrived and decided that all these narrow escape from the well falling without any hurt and survival of a severe cold body were due to by the wonderful Leela of the Almighty Shri Sai Baba. After ascertaining that Baba alone had saved my eldest daughter from Typhoid and my old age mother from

well falling, I have got full faith in Baba and began to worship Baba. I began parayan of Baba's Satcharitra in Marathi atleast daily one chapter in the evening. As soon as I began to read, a very big frog used to come and remain by my side till my reading was over. This went on till the parayan of Baba's Satcharitra was over. On the next day of final reading or say my parayan was over, it never came again. Not our family members but who were coming to my house have also seen this. We all decided that Sai himself came in this disguise to listen my parayan in order to strengthen my faith in Him. Then it became a very big problem for me about my eldest daughter's marriage. I decided that however, my position may be, I have to perform her marriage at any cost in 1974. At that time, I fell ill and I had no finance to perform her marriage. I heartily prayed, "O Baba You Yourself relieving our family problems even though I got

no faith in you in the beginning, now I pray from my bottom of the heart to fulfill my eldest daughter's marriage and cure me from my illness". Baba heard my prayer. On one fine morning in January 1975 my eldest brother came along with bridegroom’s parents to my house and exchanged talks with us and settled the marriage on 18-5-1975. Marri­age was performed in a simplest and in a fit manner in Baba's Mangalkaryalalya. We had prepared food for 500 persons that too more than our expectation. Unexpectedly more than 800 persons came. They have to be fed compulsorily if not the honour of my family would be at stake. There were no ways and means forthcoming to me to solve the problem. Fully trusting in Baba I hurried to Baba's Dwarakamayee, prayed heartily to Baba to save my family honour, took UDI, and came to

Mangalkaryalaya and put Baba's UDI in all the vessels containing food and began to serve the guests. To the amazement of all not only the 800 per­sons were fed, but the food for about 200 persons rem­ained. Thus the Omnipotent Baba by His Leela magnanimously saved the honour of my family.

BABA MADE A LITTLE GIRL WHO WAS MADE DUMB BY A CAR ACCIDENT TO SPEAK WITH THE HOLY ASHES OF HIS HAND A little daughter of a devotee of Bombay (Andheri) was run over by a motor car, was saved but was injured and took a fortnight to recover in the hospital. Though the hospital treatment restored her health, the speech she had lost due to the accident was not regained. She became dumb and though several remedies, medicines etc. were tried all of them proved ineffective. At last, the Holy ash of Baba sacred hands was tried and she started speaking as soon as she took its first dose. All were startled at the powers of Holy ash of Baba's hands.

NAGARJUN RAO OF HYDERABAD It was in the year 1970 that I happened to go to Bombay on some personal work. As it happened to be my first visit, I went for sight seeing to several places in and around Bombay. Suddenly I felt that I should go to Shirdi and visit the Mahasamadhi of Shri Sai Baba more out of curiosity rather than devotion. But the visit was to be put off because of brother-in-law's arrival from the United States. I was very much disap­pointed and silently prayed to Baba that if he were to be a God, He should bless me with an opportunity to go to Shirdi. In the meanwhile a very interesting thing happened. We received a cable that my brother-in-law's Scheduled arrival has to be postponed on account of his prolonged stay en route. Thus the seeds of the faith were sown in my heart by an unexpected accomplishment of my desire. Immedia­tely I was in search of a person who could help me with the details of the pilgrimage. When I was proceeding from Andheri to Dadar by electric train, I surp­risingly came across a devotee of Sai Baba who guided me with minute details. Thus the very first visit to the Shrine proved to be preplanned Sankalpa of Baba Him­self to draw me towards Him. After taking bath, I went for darshan which made me extremely happy. For a moment, there appeared nothing but Sai Baba

in every thing in Shirdi. I prayed to Baba that he should help me with His grace and give me solace and com­fort throughout my life. I happened to make a study of several books available at Shirdi which makes one to feel that He is not merely a Super­human form but Omnipotent God himself. Since then my faith in Baba was steadily growing. Once one of my close friends was blessed with a daughter. Unfortunately, she had an attack of paralysis and as a result of which she was not in a position to move her hands. My friend felt very unhappy as the treatment given by doctors did not produce the required result. He had lost all hopes of her recovery and felt dejected. I gave him a little Vibhuti (UDI) which I brought from Shirdi and asked him to apply it to the effected hand with complete faith in Baba's mercy. Though he was not personally a

believer of Sai Baba, he consented to do it on my persistence. He told me that he would wor­ship Baba as God if the vibhuti helped the recovery of his child in any way. With the application of Vibuthi, there was a tremendous improvement and very soon the baby recovered responding very well to the medical treatment which was a big surprise even to the physi­cians as he himself was not quite confident about the outcome of his trial. The grateful father of the child has become an ardent devotee of Sai Baba. Such was the kindness of Shri Sai Baba who responds to the call of humanity if only the persons look to Him.
