Dear Sai Devotees, In this week's eChat, we will read about an incident that reinforces our faith in Sai Baba's teachigs ............................. -------------------- Once an old, poor man came to the house of Bibi Fatima and asked her for help. Bibi Fatima had nothing to give except the necklace that her cousin had just given her. She took it off and gave it to the old man, telling him to sell the necklace and use the money wisely. A business man bought the necklace from the old man and gave him money, food, some clothes, and a horse. The business man wanted to make the necklace an offering to the Prophet, and so he

sent a servant and the necklace as gifts. Upon receiving the gifts, the Prophet was very pleased and he asked the servant to go to Bibi Fatima, return the necklace and serve her. Bibi Fatima thanked the servant for bringing the necklace from the Prophet and in exchange offered the servant his freedom from slavery. She thought to herself "What a special necklace! It provided food, clothes, a horse, and money to a needy person, freed a slave, and finally came back to its owner! " ----------------- We should remember Sai's words at this time.."What do I do with the money I take as Dakshina? I return it back ten times more." OM SAI RAM!
