Sai Satcharitra - Ovi to Ovi english Translation - Chp-1

[Guest guest]

121. Four ‘seers’ of wheat were ground and the basket was empty. Then the fancies of the women began to dance uncontrollably. 122. “Baba does not make chappatis54. He goes about as a mendicant. What will he do with the wheat flour?” The women conjectured. 123. “Baba has neither wife nor child. Baba is all alone. He has no household or family. Why so much flour?” 124. One of them said: “Baba is

exceedingly kind. This ‘leela’ is only for our love’s sake. Right now he will distribute this flour entirely to all of us”. 125. “Now he will divide it into four parts – one for each of us”. All of them were building such castles in the air. 126. Baba’s sport he alone knows. No one can gauge the extent of it. But the women’s greed to loot Baba arose. 127. The flour was spread out and the wheat was used up. The grinding stone was placed against the wall. The flour was filled into the scuttle-basket by the women, with intent to carry it to their respective homes. 128. Till then Baba did not utter a single word. When the four of them divided the flour into four parts, then, folks, listen to what he said: 129. “You are mad with greed! What are you taking and where? Do you think it belongs to your father?

Now go to the boundary of the village and throw away the flour there. 130. You good-for-nothings have come running to loot me. Did you give the wheat on loan that you want to take away the flour?”. Devotees can read this book from the Book Section of http://www.saileelas.org/books/sss/index.htm
