Gift of Sai Bhakti, Miracles and Experiences.

February 5, 2009

Om Sai Ram Manisha.Bisht Ji,

Is really thank you very much for your excellent services which increase our faith and devotion towards the holy feet of Sad Guru Sai Nath Maharaj Ji.

Its only Baba Ji who gave me Sai Bhakti in a very strange form,,,,if any one hear my story he/she will really down his head in holy feet of Sadguru Sainath Maharaj Ji. I want to share Sai Experiences with all the Believers as well as Non Believers so that they can understand love of Sai Ma.

Sai Baba Ji please allows me to write your miracles and Leelas ………..

Sai Baba Ji says----------Shardha dwara kiya hua ek Namskar hi mujhe prayapt he

Now I am 29 years old & that time I was 22 years old……

“I was just 22 years old & doing job in an export house here in Aligarh city (U.P.) & there is a temple near my office. I joined that office on 6th May 2002. When I crossed the road (morning and evening both time) I simply down my head & say Pranam to Baba Ji, even I do not know hwo is Saibaba & how Sai baba ji looks like just to give respect to God/Saint I usually down my head in front of Temples, Gurudwara, Mosque, Church. One day in morning ( In Summer of year 2004) Sai Baba Ji gave me a dream & Said you will be get married when you will be 28 years old most probably in March/ April 2008 (my DOB is 07 September 1979). I woke up after that dream & was scared that it’s a too long period? What will be happened? I have no

brother & my father is ill & Mumma has a lot of family responsibilities because we are three sisters, I am middle one & only one elder sister got married in Feb 2003. I told everything to Mumma & she was saying let everything on God & Mumma also became very upset because when I was born then Pandit Ji has already advised to Mumma that please take care when search a life partner for your this daughter because there are six star in one house of Horoscope & it will also delay marriage of your daughter but if you people take precautions along with patience surely you will get a very good life partner for your daughter by grace of God. After some time of this dream I went to the said Sai Temple & was shocked to the no end & earth on which I was standing was like slipping because in which pink dress Baba Ji gave me Holy Darshan in the dream he had wear the same pink dress and same size of Baba Ji’s statue was present there. I

was surprised to the no end because till day I did not know how Sai Baba Ji looks like (I have already mentioned above), now what should I do? There were very very much confusions in my mind & I was too happy as well as disappointed & came back to my home & told every thing to Mumma. After this miracle I went on every Thursday to this Sai temple along with a small Garland and Prasad.

Shardha aur Saburi hi do mantr he Sai Ji Ko Pane Ke

My father has a minor Paralice attack in August 2002 & hospitalized in Sir Ganga Ram, Delhi & by the Grace and Blessings of God & help of doctors & our relatives he became fit but due to this his mental nervous are became very weak. After few months he started his job (he is a Steno of D.J. in Aligarh Civil Court ) & doctors has advised that there is no need to give him too much load & driving was strictly prohibited. Do not leave this person alone. We hired a Rikshwaman to take my father home to office & vice versa. Till day his treatment is going with Sir Ganga Ram Hopital, Delhi . We all the family members were become very depressed with position of my Dad because

in office no one was supporting him & he has demoted also. In such circumstances my Mumma did not loose her patience & saying let live as per Gods wishes. In November 2002, my elder sister got engaged & got married in February 2003. After some time we went to Fortise Hospital to have a discussion for Papa’s mental health and treatment & each and every doctor was surprised to see that how this person go to the Job & advised few more test & medicines.

Now we both sister has decided to do something for our family & Mom Dad. In the year 2004 my younger sister went to Delhi to start her carrier as a lawyer & she faced a lot of problems but she did not leave her aim by the Grace of Sai Baba. She is a Sai Devotee & has started fasting on every Thursday. She advised me also to start fasting on Thursday for Sai Baba but I denied by saying that I am already fasting for Vishnu Bhagvan then there is no need to move from one to another God. It’s not a good habit & all God is one & we people have divided him in various names & she agreed & was saying ok.

Life was going well & we both sisters tried very hard in our professional life & on the other hand my parents were trying very hard to search a life partner for my self but no fruitful results due to Dowry Demands, No Horoscope Matching & even fraud was there but by Grace of Sai Deva Ji, he kept me safe.

In the May 2006 there was a great problem exist that government has decided that give compulsory retirement to all the employees (16 persons in Aligarh court including my father) who are not eligible to do work efficiently. When I came back to home my parents discussed all the things & were very much depressed because still two responsibilities are pending on Mumma’s shoulders (me and my younger sister’s marriage). We met to D.J. & approached him to safe Papa’s Job owing to very very good record & he advised that there is no doubt that Mr. Khatri has a very good record but I am not able to safe his Job because other people will do objection if I do the same. You can file a rit in Allahbad High Court & we did the same but no fruitful result. We

were very very much depressed & tears were not stopping because 7 years were remaining for retirement but we have no another option against government rules. We were praying to God & Durga Mata Ji & they gave us stamina to accept the truth of retirement of my father. Now we both sisters and Mumma have decided that let Papa Ji be at home & enjoy his retired life.

Life was going & we both started more and more labour. Mumma was encouraging us. Well, another hill of problems was fallen on me when on 09 September 2006 I left my job because of too much problems. Even my management do not wish me to leave that job but a senior person name Mr. Ashad Akonjee were creating problems because he feels jealous with me owing to my devotion and dedication towards my work. I came back to home & was too much crying & Mumma advised that God will do everything, why are you worrying? I prayed to Sai Baba and Shiv Ji & really I got another job within fifteen days & joined that job on 23 September 2006. We have also started a business of ladies bindi but unsuccessful. Then I registered a company in the name and style of Amity Collections Inc. for garments field & started my garment

business on a very low level but unsuccessful. Money is not everything but something to survive the lives & I also want to achieve something in my life some name and fame for my parents who still date never realize we sisters that we do not have any brother then its our responsibility that to do something for our parents.

My Marriage and Pariksha by Sad Guru Sainath Ji

Life was going & someone has advised a boy for my self & Mom Dad went Delhi on 18 November 2006 to meet that family but no fruitful results. My parents were in Delhi in my Mama Ji’ house, someone advised that you need to get Shalu (my younger sister) marry first because she is mangalik and 25 years old. Her age will increasing also. Someone who has advised the boy for myself again advised a mangalik boy for my sister. Mumma rang me (I was in Aligarh ) & asked what should do & I simply replied you need to proceed for Shalu. She was requesting to come Delhi but

I denied because Shalu will never agree to do the same in front of me. Mumma told you need to talk to Shalu over telephone because she is not agreed to do marriage before you. I rang to Shalu & discussed all the situations with her & by the Grace of Baba Ji she agreed & got engaged on the same day i.e. 19 November 2006. It’s a miracle by God Sai Baba Ji. Everyone in my family was very happay for Shalu as well as sad for me. I was praying to Sai Baba Ji that please helps me so that I can complete my responsibility for Shalu’s (younger sister) marriage. She got married on 10 March 2007 & blessed with a baby girl in January 2008. By Blessings of Sad Guru Sai Nath Mahraj Ji and Durga Mata Ji she is happily married.

In the year 2006 one day the Temple owner (not pandit Ji, actually the temple owner is now no more in this world & I am not saying anything against his soul because its enough for my self that he became the mediator between me & Sai Bab who build the temple) shouted me & insulted also & was saying “ye kaisa Prasad he, Khud acha khate ho or Bhagvan ko aisa khilate ho” there were tears in my eyes & came back to home & discussed all the things with Mumma and my younger sister Shalini. I decided that I will not go to that Sai Mandir & will go another Sai Mandir on every Thursday but both Mumma & my younger sister Shalini were advising me that why are you annoying with Sai Baba, you must go the same Sai temple not another, this is your exam by Sai Baba Ji & you must pass this. I agreed with

their words & did not leave that Sai Mandir Darshan on ever Thursday. Since November 2006 I started to go everyday to Sai Mandir for Sai Darshan.

Invitation from Shirdi Sai Nath to celebrate my 28th Birthday (07 September) on Holy Pilgrimage to get his Blessings

In the year 2007 I went to Shirdi with my parents on my 28th birthday (05 September 2007 to 08 September 2007). I can’t explain that how Sai Ji has called us in Shirdi on my 28th birthday. This birthday was very auspicious for me and my family to celebrate in Shirdi because after that chances of my marriage are very strong as per Sai Dream.

Sai Leela for Invitation to Shirdi…………Due to problem in my office only my parents were planned to go Shirdi for Sai Darshan & their tickets were booked for 22 August 2007 but Baba Ji has played his Leelas to called me Shirdi also. Actually my Dad’s monthly checkup was due in the August month & before leaving for Shirdi Darshan my parents went to Delhi for checkup & due to crowd on Raliway Station unfortunately only Papa boarded on the Train & train left the Aligarh Station & Mumma did not board the Train. Now what should do? Mumma was crying & rang to Mamma Ji, plz go to the Delhi Station & Pick Papa Ji up as he is alone & I am coming to Delhi through next train. Everyone was too scared but Sai Baba Ji kept safe my Papa & he arrived safely at Mama Ji’s house. Now no one wish to allow my parents to go Shirdi alone. Now three tickets were booked for Shirdi on 06 September 2007 by canceling my parents tickets (22 August 2007). We were too happy that we are going to meet Baba Ji for the first time. Sai Baba Ji really welcome us like a mother who was long waiting for their beloved children. We reached Shrdi on 06 September 2007, Thursday & Baba Ji allowed us to attend the Madhyan Aarti in front of him. There were tears in my eyes because of happiness that how can a Saint be so merciful & gave us opportunity to attend the Madhyan Aarti in our first silent request in such heavy crowd. He sent one guard to us only 15 minutes before the Madhyan Aarti for guiding us to take the Senior Citizen Pass to attend the Madhyan Aarti. I ran quickly to the Pass window & very nice no one did the objection & gave us the Madhyan Aarti Senior Citizen Facility Pass. Shirdi Sai Baba pulls His devotees. Next morning it was my 28th Birthday & I was too happy that now my exams will be over by blessings of baba on my that birthday. We went to Samadhi Mandir to get the blessings of Baba Ji. It’s really true that Baba Ji really meets on the way to Shirdi as well as in the Shirdi & take fully care of his devotees.

Jako Rakhe Sai Nath Mar Sake Na Koi

Now Sai Baba Ji more often gave me Darshan in Dreams. Life was going well & now the year 2008 has come & my family members and I were thinking now our wait is over & this year she will definitely get married by Blessings of Sai Baba. On 15 February 2008 Sai Baba Ji gave me dream that me and my mom boarded a train & my right leg got mashed in wheel of the train & I shouted the word only Sai Baba & he came in the Aeroplane & catch me up with his right hand & there was no injury in my legs & suddenly I woke & told everything to Mom about the dream. Same day (15 February 2008) after bathing, breakfast etc. I leave my home for go to the office, suddenly on the road two person on the Motor Bike behind me were forced my Kinetic Zing & I felt down along with my Kinetic Zing on

the road & one large tractor came in front of my Kinetic Zing & I closed my eyes with fear of loosing my legs in this accident but after few seconds when I opened my eyes there was no harm to my whole body not a single scratch. Everyone who was present on the road at the time of my accident was thinking there must be a huge injury to the girl but very honestly there was not a single scratch. You people want to know why so????? Because this is the road of the Said Sai Mandir & Baba Ji kept safe my legs. Jia Sad Guru Sai Nath Maharaj Ji Ki…….My family was happy as well as satisfied that Sai Baba Ji is really with Dipti.

Pariksha of Shardha aur Saburi by Sad Guru Sainath Ji- Sai Ji is a teacher prepare his student for exams,,,,,,who declare the exam of his student & who also help to get qualify the exam with 100% result

Life was going & Sai Baba Ji gave me another dream on 24 February 2008, Sunday that I am in the same Sai Madir & Deepak in my hand & I was murmuring the Sai Kasht Nivaran Mantr; the lines were as under:-

“ Sai Mujhse mukh na moro

Bich majhdar akela na choro”

OR MERA DEEPAK BUJH GAYA -------

I woke up & scared that there will be defiantly something miss happening in my life which Sai Baba Ji has indicated me & really it did not take too much time & I lost my job on the same day of this dream i.e. 24 February 2008, Sunday.

I was too annoying with Sai Baba Ji that when I am thinking that I am close to my marriage & I will marry with in one or two months than you have broken my faith & I lost my job. I was crying too & decided that will not come to you for any sort of my problem. I just want to do something for my family till am unmarried then why I lost my job, even though you are with me & I tell you each and everything does not matter good or bad but like a daughter I want to tell everything to my Sai Ma even he already known everything but its our responsibility also that we have to share everything with mother & also admit our mistakes in front of my mother who gave us birth in bodily form or Sai mother who given us breathing. There was a line of unfaith in my mind arose that there is no need of any God or Guru

because I strongly believe in every God & Shiv Ji is my Isth & Sai Ji is my Guru, No one did any thing for my marriage or happiness in our life. Even I have given several exams in front of you God then what do you wish from me. I do not want to live any more, please give me death so that I can merge in your holy feet Sai Ma.

Sai ne Sapna kya diya jese Bhagay ne sath hi chor diya. Koi naukri nahi mil rahi thi, ulta me galat baton me phasa di gayi, begunah hote hue bhi bahut si batein suni kyun Sai Kyun bas yahi wajah thi narajaggi ki agar Sach ki koi value nahi. Mere kuch negative points hein

1. me sirf apne kam se matlab rakhati hun , means kisi ke bhi kam me interference nahi karti.

2. meri shaadi nahi huyi,

3. mere papa bimar hein,

4. mujhe gussa bahut atta,

5. mera koi brother nahi he

6. me straight forward sab kah deti hun.

Sai Baba ji se gussa hone par mene Baba Ji ko bahut kuch galat kaha kyunki mera routine tha ki me jab sham ko mandir jati thi to sab achi buri batein Baba Ji ko Batati thi mere computer ke Desktop par bhi Sai Ji Ka Hi photo tha……phir meri galti ke bina hi mujhe sirf mere guse ki itni bari saja mil gai…..Anyways…. I moved to Delhi to search a Job but no fruitful result. I back to Aligarh with tears in my eyes.

Lekin us Sai ki jitni mahima gayi jaye utni kam he ek din mujhe sapna aaya ki hum Shirdi ke Samadhi mandir me bhajan kirtan kar rahe hein or wah bhajan tha

“"Jab koi nahi aata mere Sai aate haiMere dukh ke dino me wo bare kaam aate hein

Jab koi nahi aata mere Baba aate hai."

Me so kar uthi or apne ghar ke mandir ke samne baith kar khub roi. Sham ko usi mandir me gayi or bahut roi ghar lot kar aayi to Sai Baba Ji ek fakir ke bhesh me kahre hue hamari colony me ro rahe the or chote chote bache unse vajah puch rahe the,

mene pucha app ko bhukh lagi he kya? khana khayenge?

or woh roye hi ja raha tha

phir wah fakir bola mene apne bachon ke paas jana he mere paas paise nahi kiraye ke liye

mene pucha kitna lagega or

usne kha Rs 20 or R. 22. mere paas 7 hein to

mene kaha acha baba ruko me purse dekhti hun

itne me ek larki khana layi baba ke liye or

mene apne purse check kiya to usme Rs. 14 the jo mene us fakir ko de diye or man me socha ye kahi Sai Nah to nahi or us road ko hath (hand) se chu kar us fakir ko pranam kiya (Sai Samajh Kar), uske feets ko haath logon ke dar se nahi lagayya ki sab kahenge ye larki dikhhwa karti he tori der baad who chala gaya

Its one more miracle………….. Within few days I got a job of Rs. 14000/= in Aligarh city & I joined that job on 03 June 2008…..

Yah koi or fakir nahi the,,,,the to sirf sabke malik ek SAI NATH JI jo mere dukh me dukhi ho kar ro rahe the ek wahi he is pure sansaar me jo apne bachon ke dukh me mother ki tarah aasun bahate hein…. Jo unhone Rs. 14 liye wah Rupees nahi the ,,,,,wah the Dakshina jo unhone Rs.. 14 ke roop me mere dhukh dard, annsu, problems sab le liye……… Sad Guru Sai Nath Ki Jai…….

This itself shows Sai presence. He himself said he pulls his men towards himself. Even though we forget but he does remember us.

On 1 March 2008 Sai Baba Ji gave me darshan in dream & advised that

“teri shaadi 29 se 30 sal tak ho jayegi”

“Means March 2008 to September 2009”

I told everything about the dream to my Mother & same day i.e. 1 March 2008 we went to a Pandit Ji who advised that she will be get married within 19 moths………..

We were shocked that the dream of Sai Ma is well matched with Pandit’s calculation i.e. 19 moths meaning March 2008 to September 2009.

I watched Sai Ma & was asking on daily basis that

“Baba ji meri shaadi kyun nahi hoti, mene fast rakhe shardha se vishwas se voh bhi nahi Kabul hue, me roj deepak jagaati hun voh bhi kabul nahi hua, agar mujhme kami he to batao or mere vishwaas me he to please voh batao lekin kirpa kar mera vishwaas kabhi bhi kam mat karma………apne to aashirwad diya tha ki meri shaadi March/April 2008 me hogi phir meri pariksha kyun bara di gayi Sainath or yahi question mene 13 October 2008 ki raat ko bhi baba ji se kiya or mujhe sapne me baba ji ne Sharad Purnima (14 October 2008) ke din Swapan diya

“Me Dashhara ke din Sai madir ke utsav me shamil hun or Prasad kha rahi hun sai ne doot (angel) bheja or wah doot (angel) counting karne laga 3 or 4 hue 7, teri shaadi 07 October se 09 December 2008 tak pakki ho jayegi’

“Mene Pucha kiske sath to wah doot (angel) bhag gaya or me uske piche bhagi toh neend khul gayi”

Still date my marriage did not fix & my parents are very much depressed due to delay in my marriage but they strongly believe that very shortly Baba Ji send a very nice guy for myself. I was too much depressed on 17 January 2009 & login that blog & one more miracle there is one new article that “Shree Sai Ka Shree Phal” in which it advised that we have to sent a coconut in Dwarikamai for our prayers as daughter of Mrs. & Mr. P. G. Sonalkar got married within 40 days after that. Hetal Ji please help me & advised how can I send a coconut to Dwarika Mai of Shirdi for my prayer..

According to my family & me there are few reasons that Baba Ji is delaying my marriage which are as under:-

Sai Baba is Jagat Kartar & each & every1 doing the tasks according to his Leela-"Kise kab kya dena he unhe (Sai Baba) sab pata he, har pag pe karega sabki rakhwali".

Sai Baba Ji Knows The Past, Present & Future; Hence He Is Delaying My Marriage For My Bright Future.

Sai Solves Our Problem When We Have Faith In His Abilities, When Sai Delays in Solving Our Problems It Means He has Faith In Our Abilities & Advises Us To Keep Sharddha Aur Saburi.

If I Got Marry Earlier Than How Can I Achieve Sia Bhakati & If I Got Marry Earlier Than Definitely My Personal Life Will Be Progressing But No Spiritual Life. Shirdi Sai Baba Pulls His Devotees.

Request to All Sai Devotees Please Consider The Below To Follow The Sai Path

Sad Guru Sai Nath Ji Says these Beautiful Words for our happy lives:-

“Tu Karta Woh He Jo Chata Tu He

Magar Hota Woh He Jo Chata Me (Sai) Hun

Tu Agar Woh Karne Lag Jaye Jo Chahta Me (Sai) Hun (Shardha Aur Saburi)

To Hoga Woh Jo Chata Tu He (Bhakti ki Shakti)”

“Do ordinary for Sai, He will do extraordinary for you.

Do natural for Sai, He will do supernatural for you.

Do possible for Sai, He will do impossible for you.”

I also want to do saptah parayan path of Shri Sai Sat Charitra but still date Sai Baba Ji did not give me the permission. I request to Sai ma please give me permission to do a Saptah Prayan Path of Shri Sai Sathcharitra.

Ardas to Sai Ma………………………..

“He Sai ke charanon me araz yahi din raat barti hi jaye Bhakati”

“Hamara vishwaas kam mat karma, hum ache insaan bane, aache maarg par chale, apne Ma Papa ki seva karte rahein, Chahe bete hon ya betiyan,hamare krodh, hinsa, kalesh, irsha jese shatruyon ka naash karo…..or apne nam dhyan a daan bakhsho………………………… Jai Sai Nath Maahraj Ki…….

May all the worlds be happy. May all the beings be happy.May none suffer from grief or sorrow. May peace be to all.

Shubham Bhavtu.

Sai Ki Beti

Dear Readers

Wish you all a very happy Thursday

It is really Baba's leela ,2 days back I recieved Sai experience by sai sister Ashalatha to post in blog about her leela where she has given how Baba blessed her with Vishnu Sahasranam which I have published in blog today Here,being busy I could not post it and rightly it is ready to be posted today ,on Thursday .Here is where Baba blessed,today when I randomly opened Sai Satcharitra to post the Thursday message I was just freezed to see the chapter Manhima of our Sainath is so lovely that the same chapter of Vishnu Sahasrananam has come which clearly indicates that Baba wishes for His children to chant Vishnu Sahasrana.May all of us take it as Baba's blessing to all and chant Vishnu Sasharanam atleast on every Thursday .Jai Sai Ram .

Thursday Message .

When a man takes a plunge into the sea, he gets the merit of bathing in all the Tirthas and sacred rivers. Similarly when a man takes refuge at the feet of the Sad-guru, he gets the merit of bowing to the Trinity, i.e. Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh and also Para-Brahma. Victory be unto Shri Sai the wish-fulfilling tree and the ocean of knolwedge, who gives us self-realisation. Oh Sai, create in us regard for Your stories.

Let the readers and audience devour them with the same relish with which the chatak bird drinks the water from the clouds and becomes happy. While listening to Your stories, let them and their families get all the sattwik emotions, viz. let their bodies perspire, let their eyes be full of tears, let their prana be steady, let their minds be composed, let their hair stand on end, let them cry, sob and shake, let their hostilities and their distinctions, great and small vanish. If these things happen, that is a sign of the grace of the Guru dawning upon them.

When these emotions develop in you, the Guru is most pleased and will certainly lead you on to the goal of self-realisation. The best way, therefore, to get free from the shackles of Maya is our complete and whole-hearted surrender to Baba. The Vedas cannot take you across the ocean of Maya . It is only the Sad-guru, who can do so and make you, see the Lord in all creatures.

Granting Consecrated Book

The variety of imparting instructions followed by Baba has already been noticed in the previous Chapters. In this, we shall deal with one aspect of it. It was the habit of some devotees to take some religious books, of which they wanted to make a special study, to Baba and to receive the same back from Him, after they were touched and consecrated by Him.

While reading daily such books, they felt that Baba was with them. Once, Kaka Mahajani came to Shirdi with a copy of Ekanathi Bhagwat. Shama took that book to read and taking it with him went to the Masjid. There Baba took it from him, touched it and turning some pages here and there gave it back to Shama and asked him to keep it with him.. When Shama said that it belonged to Kaka and had to be returned to him.

"No, no", said Baba. "As I have given it to you, better keep it with you for safe custody; it will be of use to you." In this way many books were entrusted to Shama. Kaka Mahajani after a some days came again with another copy of the same Bhagwat and gave it in Baba's hand. Then Baba gave it back as Prasad and asked him to preserve it well and assured him that it would stand him in good stead. Kaka accepted it with a bow.

Shama and Vishnu-Sahasra- Nam

Shama was a very intimate devotee of Baba and Baba wanted to favour him in a particular way by giving him a copy of Vishnu-Sahasra- Nam as Prasad. This was done in the following way. Once a Ramadasi (follower of Saint Ramadas) came to Shirdi and stayed for some time.

The routine he followed daily was as follows : He got up early in the morning, washed his face, bathed and then after wearing saffron-coloured clothes and besmearing himself with sacred ashes, read Vishnu-Sahasra- Nam (a book giving a thousand names in praise of Vishnu, and held second in importance to Bhagwad Geeta) and Adhyatma-Ramayana (Esoteric version of Rama's story) with faith.

He read these books often and often and then after some days Baba thought of favouring and initiating Shama with Vishnu-Sahasra- Nam. He, therefore, called the Ramadasi to Him and said to him that, He was suffering from intense stomach-pain, and unless He took Senna-pods (Sona-mukhi, a mild purgative drug) the pain would not stop; so he should please go to the bazar and bring the drug. The Ramadasi closed his reading and went to the bazar.

Then Baba descended from His seat, came to the Ramadasi's place of reading, took out the copy of Vishnu-Sahasra- Nam, and coming to His seat said to Shama- "Oh Shama, this book is very valuable and efficacious, so I present it to you, you read it. Once I suffered intensely and My heart began to palpitate and My life was in danger.

At that critical time, I hugged this book to My heart and then, Shama, what a relief it gave me! I thought that Allah Himself came down and saved Me. So I give this to you, read it slowly, little by little, read daily one name at least and it will do you good." Shama replied that he did not want it, and that the owner of it, the Ramadasi who was a mad, obstinate and irritable fellow would certainly pick up a quarrel with him, besides, being a rustic himself, he could not read distinctly the Sanskrit (Devanagari) letters of the book.

Shama thought that Baba wanted to set him up against the Ramadasi by this act of His, but he had no idea of what Baba felt for him. Baba must have thought to tie this necklace of Vishu-Sahasra- Nam round the neck of Shama, as he was an intimate devotee, though a rustic, and thus save him from the miseries of the worldly existence.

The efficacy of God's Name is well-known. It saves us from all sins and bad tendencies, frees us from the cycle of births and deaths. There is no easier sadhana than this. It is the best purifier of our mind. It requires no paraphernalia and no restrictions. It is so easy and so effective.

This sadhana, Baba wanted Shama to practise, though he did not crave for it. So Baba forced this on him. It is also reported that long ago, Eknath Maharaj, similarly, forced this Vishnu-Sahasra- Nam on a poor Brahmin neighbour, and thus saved him. The reading and study of this Vishnu-Sahasra- Nam is a broad open way of purifying the mind, and hence Baba thrust this on His Shama.

The Ramadasi returned soon with the Seena-pods. Anna Chinchanikar, who was then present and who wanted to play the part of Narada (the Celestial Rishi who was well-known for setting up quarrels between Gods and demons and vice versa), informed him of what had happened.

The Ramadasi at once flared up. He came down at once on Shama with all fury. He said that it was Shama who set Baba to send him away under the pretext of stomach-ache for bringing the medicine and thus got the book. He began to scold and abuse Shama and remarked that if the book be not returned, he would dash his head before him.

Shama calmly remonstrated with him, but in vain. Then Baba spoke kindly to him as follows - "Oh Ramadasi, what is the matter with you? Why are you so turbulent? Is not Shama our boy? Why do you scold him unnecessarily.

How is it that you are so quarrelsome? Can you not speak soft and sweet words? You read daily these sacred books and still your mind is impure and your passions uncontrolled. What sort of a Ramadasi you are! You ought to be indifferent to all things.

Is it not strange that you should covet this book so strongly? A true Ramadasi should have no 'mamata' (attachment) but have 'samata' (equality) towards all. You are now quarrelling with the boy Shama for a mere book. Go, take your seat, books can be had in plenty for money, but not men; think well and be considerate..

What worth is your book? Shama had no concern with it. I took it up Myself and gave it to him. You know it by heart. I thought Shama might read it and profit thereby, and so I gave to it him."

How sweet were these words of Baba, soft, tender and nectar-like! Their effect was wonderful. The Ramadasi calmed down and said to Shama that he would take 'Panch-ratni' Geeta in return. Shama was much pleased and said - "Why one, I shall give ten copies in return".

So the matter was ultimately compromised.

The question for consideration is "Why should the Ramadasi press for Pancha-ratni Geeta, the God in which he never cared to know, and why should he, who daily read religious books in the Masjid in front of Baba, quarrel with Shama before Him?" We do not know how to apportion the blame and whom to blame..

We only say that, had this procedure been not gone through, the importance of the subject, the efficacy of God's name and the study of Vishnu-Sahasra- Nam would not have been brought home to Shama. So we see that Baba's method, of teaching and initiating was unique.

In this cases Shama did gradually study the book and mastered its contents to such an extent, that he was able to explain it to Professor G.G. Narke, M.A. of the College of Engineering , Poona , the son-in-law of Shriman Booty and a devotee of Baba.

Vitthal-Vision

One day, while Kakasaheb Dixit was in mediation after his morning bath in his Wada at Shirdi he saw a vision of Vitthal. When he went to see Baba afterwards, Baba asked him - "Did vitthal Patil come? did you not see Him? He is very elusive, hold Him fast, otherwise He will give you the slip and run away".

Then at noon a certain hawker came there, with 20 or 25 pictures of Vitthal of Pandharpur for sale. Mr. Dixit was surprised to see that the form of Vithal he saw in his mediation exactly tallied with that in the picture and he was also reminded of Baba's words. He therefore, bought one picture most willingly and kept it in his shrine for worship.

Geeta-Rahasya

Baba always loved those who studied Brahma-vidya (metaphysics) and encouraged them. To give an instance - Once Bapusaheb Jog received a post-parcel. It contained a copy of Geeta-Rahasya by Lokamanya Tilak.

Taking it under his armpit he came to the Masjid and prostrated himself before Baba, when the parcel fell at Baba's Feet. Baba enquired what it was. It was opened then and there and the book was placed in Baba's hand.

He turned some pages here and there for a few minutes and took out a rupee from His pocket placed it on the book and handed the same with the rupee to Jog and said to him - "Read this completely and you will be benefited".

Mr. and Mrs. Khaparde

Let us close this Chapter with a description of the Khapardes. Once Dadasaheb Khaparde came with his family and lived in Shirdi for some months. (The diary of his stay has been published in English in the Shri Sai Leela Magazine first Volume.) Dadasaheb was not an ordinary man. He was the richest and the most famous advocate of Amraoti (Berar) and was a member of the Council of State, Delhi .

He was very intelligent and a very good speaker. Still he dared not open his mouth before Baba. Most devotees spoke and argued with Baba off and on, but only three, viz. Khaparde, Noolkar and Booty kept always silent. They were meek, modest, humble and goodnatured.

Dadasaheb, who was able to expound Panchadashi (A well-known Sanskrit treatise on the Adwaita Philosophy by the famous Vidyaranya) to others, said nothing or uttered no word when he came to the Masjid before Baba. Really a man, however learned he may be even in Vedas, fades away before one, who was realised Brahman and become one with it. Learning cannot shine before Self-reaisation.

Dadasaheb stayed for four months, but Mrs. Khaparde stayed for seven. Both were highly pleased with their Shirdi stay. Mrs. Khaparde was faithful and devout, and loved Baba deeply. Every noon she brought naivedya herself to the Masjid, and after it was accepted by Baba, she used to return and take her meals. Seeing her steady and firm devotion, Baba wanted to exhibit it to others. One noon she brought a dish containing Sanza (wheat-pudding) , purees, rice, soup, and kheer (sweet rice) and other sundry articles to the Masjid. Baba, who usually waited for hours, got up at once, went up to His dining seat and removing the outer covering from the dish began to partake of the things zealously.

Shama then asked Him - "Why this partiality? You throw away dishes of others and do not care to look at them, but this You draw to You earnestly and do justice to it. Why is the dish of this woman so sweet? This is a problem to us." Baba then explained - "This food is really extra-ordinary. In former birth this lady was a merchant's fat cow yielding much milk. Then she disappeared and took birth in a gardener's family, then in a Kshatriya family, and married a merchant.

Then she was born in a Brahmin family. I saw her after a very long time, let Me take some sweet morsels of love from her dish." Saying this, Baba did full justice to her dish, washed his mouth and hands, gave out some belches as a mark of satisfaction, and resumed His seat. Then she make a bow and began to shampoo Baba's legs and Baba began to talk with her and knead her arms which were shampooing His Legs.

On seeing this reciprocal service Shama began to joke and said - "It is going on well, it is a wonderful sight to see God and His Bhakta serving each other. "After being pleased with her sincere service, Baba asked her in low and fascinating tone to chant 'Rajarama, Rajarama' then and always, and said - "If you do this, your life's object will be gained, your mind will attain peace and you will be immensely benefited." To persons unfamiliar with spiritual matters, this might appear as affair, but really it was not so.

It was a case of, what in technically called, 'Shakti-pat' , i.e. transference of power from the Guru to the disciple. How forcible and effective were Baba's words! In an instant, they pierced her heart and found lodgement there.

This case illustrates the nature of the relations that should subsist between the Guru and the disciple. Both should love and serve each other as One. There is no distinction nor any difference between them. Both are One, and one cannot live without the other.

The disciple placing his head on the Guru's feet is a gross or outward vision; really and internally they are both one and the same. Those who see any difference between them are yet unripe and not perfect.

Bow to Shri Sai - Peace be to all

Sairam

Baba Guide us all

At the Feet of my Sathguru Sai

Dear Kamini,

Om Sai Ram :-)

Don't worry, you will get married soon. Take this in positive way, if God is delaying your marriage He is taking His own time to give you BEST and also giving you the opportunity to spend some more time with your parents.

Don't worry about this and tell your parents also not to worry you will certainly get a very good groom soon. All the best.

Take Care,

Poonam Onkar Kapoor

Om Sai Ram

Om Sai Ram Manisha.Bisht Ji,

Is really thank you very much for your excellent services which increase our faith and devotion towards the holy feet of Sad Guru Sai Nath Maharaj Ji.

Its only Baba Ji who gave me Sai Bhakti in a very strange form,,,,if any one hear my story he/she will really down his head in holy feet of Sadguru Sainath Maharaj Ji. I want to share Sai Experiences with all the Believers as well as Non Believers so that they can understand love of Sai Ma.

Sai Baba Ji please allows me to write your miracles and Leelas ………..

Sai Baba Ji says-------- --Shardha dwara kiya hua ek Namskar hi mujhe prayapt he

Now I am 29 years old & that time I was 22 years old……

“I was just 22 years old & doing job in an export house here in Aligarh city (U.P.) & there is a temple near my office. I joined that office on 6th May 2002. When I crossed the road (morning and evening both time) I simply down my head & say Pranam to Baba Ji, even I do not know hwo is Saibaba & how Sai baba ji looks like just to give respect to God/Saint I usually down my head in front of Temples, Gurudwara, Mosque, Church. One day in morning ( In Summer of year 2004) Sai Baba Ji gave me a dream & Said you will be get married when you will be 28 years old most probably in March/ April 2008 (my DOB is 07 September 1979). I woke up after that dream & was scared that it’s a too long period? What will be happened? I have no brother & my father is ill & Mumma has a lot of family responsibilities because we

are three sisters, I am middle one & only one elder sister got married in Feb 2003. I told everything to Mumma & she was saying let everything on God & Mumma also became very upset because when I was born then Pandit Ji has already advised to Mumma that please take care when search a life partner for your this daughter because there are six star in one house of Horoscope & it will also delay marriage of your daughter but if you people take precautions along with patience surely you will get a very good life partner for your daughter by grace of God. After some time of this dream I went to the said Sai Temple & was shocked to the no end & earth on which I was standing was like slipping because in which pink dress Baba Ji gave me Holy Darshan in the dream he had wear the same pink dress and same size of Baba Ji’s statue was present there. I was surprised to the no end because till day I did not know how Sai Baba Ji looks like (I

have already mentioned above), now what should I do? There were very very much confusions in my mind & I was too happy as well as disappointed & came back to my home & told every thing to Mumma. After this miracle I went on every Thursday to this Sai temple along with a small Garland and Prasad.

Shardha aur Saburi hi do mantr he Sai Ji Ko Pane Ke

My father has a minor Paralice attack in August 2002 & hospitalized in Sir Ganga Ram, Delhi & by the Grace and Blessings of God & help of doctors & our relatives he became fit but due to this his mental nervous are became very weak. After few months he started his job (he is a Steno of D.J. in Aligarh Civil Court ) & doctors has advised that there is no need to give him too much load & driving was strictly prohibited. Do not leave this person alone. We hired a Rikshwaman to take my father home to office & vice versa. Till day his treatment is going with Sir Ganga Ram Hopital, Delhi . We all the family members were become very depressed with position of my Dad because in office no one was supporting him & he has demoted also. In such circumstances my Mumma did not loose her patience & saying let live as per Gods

wishes. In November 2002, my elder sister got engaged & got married in February 2003. After some time we went to Fortise Hospital to have a discussion for Papa’s mental health and treatment & each and every doctor was surprised to see that how this person go to the Job & advised few more test & medicines.

Now we both sister has decided to do something for our family & Mom Dad. In the year 2004 my younger sister went to Delhi to start her carrier as a lawyer & she faced a lot of problems but she did not leave her aim by the Grace of Sai Baba. She is a Sai Devotee & has started fasting on every Thursday. She advised me also to start fasting on Thursday for Sai Baba but I denied by saying that I am already fasting for Vishnu Bhagvan then there is no need to move from one to another God. It’s not a good habit & all God is one & we people have divided him in various names & she agreed & was saying ok.

Life was going well & we both sisters tried very hard in our professional life & on the other hand my parents were trying very hard to search a life partner for my self but no fruitful results due to Dowry Demands, No Horoscope Matching & even fraud was there but by Grace of Sai Deva Ji, he kept me safe.

In the May 2006 there was a great problem exist that government has decided that give compulsory retirement to all the employees (16 persons in Aligarh court including my father) who are not eligible to do work efficiently. When I came back to home my parents discussed all the things & were very much depressed because still two responsibilities are pending on Mumma’s shoulders (me and my younger sister’s marriage). We met to D.J. & approached him to safe Papa’s Job owing to very very good record & he advised that there is no doubt that Mr. Khatri has a very good record but I am not able to safe his Job because other people will do objection if I do the same. You can file a rit in Allahbad High Court & we did the same but no fruitful result. We were very very much depressed & tears were not stopping because 7 years were

remaining for retirement but we have no another option against government rules. We were praying to God & Durga Mata Ji & they gave us stamina to accept the truth of retirement of my father. Now we both sisters and Mumma have decided that let Papa Ji be at home & enjoy his retired life.

Life was going & we both started more and more labour. Mumma was encouraging us. Well, another hill of problems was fallen on me when on 09 September 2006 I left my job because of too much problems. Even my management do not wish me to leave that job but a senior person name Mr. Ashad Akonjee were creating problems because he feels jealous with me owing to my devotion and dedication towards my work. I came back to home & was too much crying & Mumma advised that God will do everything, why are you worrying? I prayed to Sai Baba and Shiv Ji & really I got another job within fifteen days & joined that job on 23 September 2006. We have also started a business of ladies bindi but unsuccessful. Then I registered a company in the name and style of Amity Collections Inc. for garments field & started my garment business on a very low

level but unsuccessful. Money is not everything but something to survive the lives & I also want to achieve something in my life some name and fame for my parents who still date never realize we sisters that we do not have any brother then its our responsibility that to do something for our parents.

My Marriage and Pariksha by Sad Guru Sainath Ji

Life was going & someone has advised a boy for my self & Mom Dad went Delhi on 18 November 2006 to meet that family but no fruitful results. My parents were in Delhi in my Mama Ji’ house, someone advised that you need to get Shalu (my younger sister) marry first because she is mangalik and 25 years old. Her age will increasing also. Someone who has advised the boy for myself again advised a mangalik boy for my sister. Mumma rang me (I was in Aligarh ) & asked what should do & I simply replied you need to proceed for Shalu. She was requesting to come Delhi but I denied because Shalu will never agree to do the same in front of me. Mumma told you need to talk to Shalu over telephone because she is not agreed to do marriage before you. I rang to Shalu & discussed all the situations with her & by the Grace of Baba Ji she agreed

& got engaged on the same day i.e. 19 November 2006. It’s a miracle by God Sai Baba Ji. Everyone in my family was very happay for Shalu as well as sad for me. I was praying to Sai Baba Ji that please helps me so that I can complete my responsibility for Shalu’s (younger sister) marriage. She got married on 10 March 2007 & blessed with a baby girl in January 2008. By Blessings of Sad Guru Sai Nath Mahraj Ji and Durga Mata Ji she is happily married.

In the year 2006 one day the Temple owner (not pandit Ji, actually the temple owner is now no more in this world & I am not saying anything against his soul because its enough for my self that he became the mediator between me & Sai Bab who build the temple) shouted me & insulted also & was saying “ye kaisa Prasad he, Khud acha khate ho or Bhagvan ko aisa khilate ho” there were tears in my eyes & came back to home & discussed all the things with Mumma and my younger sister Shalini. I decided that I will not go to that Sai Mandir & will go another Sai Mandir on every Thursday but both Mumma & my younger sister Shalini were advising me that why are you annoying with Sai Baba, you must go the same Sai temple not another, this is your exam by Sai Baba Ji & you must pass this. I agreed with their words & did

not leave that Sai Mandir Darshan on ever Thursday. Since November 2006 I started to go everyday to Sai Mandir for Sai Darshan.

Invitation from Shirdi Sai Nath to celebrate my 28th Birthday (07 September) on Holy Pilgrimage to get his Blessings

In the year 2007 I went to Shirdi with my parents on my 28th birthday (05 September 2007 to 08 September 2007). I can’t explain that how Sai Ji has called us in Shirdi on my 28th birthday. This birthday was very auspicious for me and my family to celebrate in Shirdi because after that chances of my marriage are very strong as per Sai Dream.

Sai Leela for Invitation to Shirdi…………Due to problem in my office only my parents were planned to go Shirdi for Sai Darshan & their tickets were booked for 22 August 2007 but Baba Ji has played his Leelas to called me Shirdi also. Actually my Dad’s monthly checkup was due in the August month & before leaving for Shirdi Darshan my parents went to Delhi for checkup & due to crowd on Raliway Station unfortunately only Papa boarded on the Train & train left the Aligarh Station & Mumma did not board the Train. Now what should do? Mumma was crying & rang to Mamma Ji, plz go to the Delhi Station & Pick Papa Ji up as he is alone & I am coming to Delhi through next train. Everyone was too scared but Sai Baba Ji kept safe my Papa & he

arrived safely at Mama Ji’s house. Now no one wish to allow my parents to go Shirdi alone. Now three tickets were booked for Shirdi on 06 September 2007 by canceling my parents tickets (22 August 2007). We were too happy that we are going to meet Baba Ji for the first time. Sai Baba Ji really welcome us like a mother who was long waiting for their beloved children. We reached Shrdi on 06 September 2007, Thursday & Baba Ji allowed us to attend the Madhyan Aarti in front of him. There were tears in my eyes because of happiness that how can a Saint be so merciful & gave us opportunity to attend the Madhyan Aarti in our first silent request in such heavy crowd. He sent one guard to us only 15 minutes before the Madhyan Aarti for guiding us to take the Senior Citizen Pass to attend the Madhyan Aarti. I ran quickly to the Pass window & very nice no one did the objection & gave us the Madhyan Aarti Senior Citizen Facility Pass. Shirdi Sai Baba pulls His devotees. Next morning it was my 28th Birthday & I was too happy that now my exams will be over by blessings of baba on my that birthday. We went to Samadhi Mandir to get the blessings of Baba Ji. It’s really true that Baba Ji really meets on the way to Shirdi as well as in the Shirdi & take fully care of his devotees.

Jako Rakhe Sai Nath Mar Sake Na Koi

Now Sai Baba Ji more often gave me Darshan in Dreams. Life was going well & now the year 2008 has come & my family members and I were thinking now our wait is over & this year she will definitely get married by Blessings of Sai Baba. On 15 February 2008 Sai Baba Ji gave me dream that me and my mom boarded a train & my right leg got mashed in wheel of the train & I shouted the word only Sai Baba & he came in the Aeroplane & catch me up with his right hand & there was no injury in my legs & suddenly I woke & told everything to Mom about the dream. Same day (15 February 2008) after bathing, breakfast etc. I leave my home for go to the office, suddenly on the road two person on the Motor Bike behind me were forced my Kinetic Zing & I felt down along with my Kinetic Zing on the road & one

large tractor came in front of my Kinetic Zing & I closed my eyes with fear of loosing my legs in this accident but after few seconds when I opened my eyes there was no harm to my whole body not a single scratch. Everyone who was present on the road at the time of my accident was thinking there must be a huge injury to the girl but very honestly there was not a single scratch. You people want to know why so????? Because this is the road of the Said Sai Mandir & Baba Ji kept safe my legs. Jia Sad Guru Sai Nath Maharaj Ji Ki…….My family was happy as well as satisfied that Sai Baba Ji is really with Dipti.

Pariksha of Shardha aur Saburi by Sad Guru Sainath Ji- Sai Ji is a teacher prepare his student for exams,,,,,,who declare the exam of his student & who also help to get qualify the exam with 100% result

Life was going & Sai Baba Ji gave me another dream on 24 February 2008, Sunday that I am in the same Sai Madir & Deepak in my hand & I was murmuring the Sai Kasht Nivaran Mantr; the lines were as under:-

“ Sai Mujhse mukh na moro

Bich majhdar akela na choro”

OR MERA DEEPAK BUJH GAYA -------

I woke up & scared that there will be defiantly something miss happening in my life which Sai Baba Ji has indicated me & really it did not take too much time & I lost my job on the same day of this dream i.e. 24 February 2008, Sunday.

I was too annoying with Sai Baba Ji that when I am thinking that I am close to my marriage & I will marry with in one or two months than you have broken my faith & I lost my job. I was crying too & decided that will not come to you for any sort of my problem. I just want to do something for my family till am unmarried then why I lost my job, even though you are with me & I tell you each and everything does not matter good or bad but like a daughter I want to tell everything to my Sai Ma even he already known everything but its our responsibility also that we have to share everything with mother & also admit our mistakes in front of my mother who gave us birth in bodily form or Sai mother who given us breathing. There was a line of unfaith in my mind arose that there is no need of any God or Guru because I strongly

believe in every God & Shiv Ji is my Isth & Sai Ji is my Guru, No one did any thing for my marriage or happiness in our life. Even I have given several exams in front of you God then what do you wish from me. I do not want to live any more, please give me death so that I can merge in your holy feet Sai Ma.

Sai ne Sapna kya diya jese Bhagay ne sath hi chor diya. Koi naukri nahi mil rahi thi, ulta me galat baton me phasa di gayi, begunah hote hue bhi bahut si batein suni kyun Sai Kyun bas yahi wajah thi narajaggi ki agar Sach ki koi value nahi. Mere kuch negative points hein

1. me sirf apne kam se matlab rakhati hun , means kisi ke bhi kam me interference nahi karti.

2. meri shaadi nahi huyi,

3. mere papa bimar hein,

4. mujhe gussa bahut atta,

5. mera koi brother nahi he

6. me straight forward sab kah deti hun.

Sai Baba ji se gussa hone par mene Baba Ji ko bahut kuch galat kaha kyunki mera routine tha ki me jab sham ko mandir jati thi to sab achi buri batein Baba Ji ko Batati thi mere computer ke Desktop par bhi Sai Ji Ka Hi photo tha……phir meri galti ke bina hi mujhe sirf mere guse ki itni bari saja mil gai…..Anyways… . I moved to Delhi to search a Job but no fruitful result. I back to Aligarh with tears in my eyes.
