In Shri Sai Satcharitra, we have two incidents describing Baba's

Control over the Elements. Which are?

 

(1) Once at evening time, there was a terrible storm at Shirdi. The

sky was overcast with thick black clouds. The winds began to blow

forcibly; the clouds roared and the lighting began to flash, and the

rains began to descend in torrents. In a short time, the whole place

was flooded with water, All the creatures, birds, beasts and men got

terribly frightened; and they all flocked to the Masjid for shelter.

There are many local deities in Shirdi, but none of them came to

their help. So they all prayed to Baba - their God, Who was fond of

their devotion, to intercede and quell the storm. Baba was much

moved. He came out and standing at the edge of the Masjid, addressed

the storm in a loud and thunderous voice - " Stop, stop your fury and

the calm. " In a few minutes the rains subsided, the winds ceased to

blow, and the storm came to a stop. Then the moon rose in the sky,

and the people then went back home well-pleased.

 

(2) On another occasion at noon the fire in the Dhuni began to burn

brightly, its flames were seen to be reaching the rafters above. The

people who were sitting in the Masjid did not know what to do. They

dared not to ask Baba to pour water or do anything to quench the

flames. But Baba soon came to realize, what was happening. He took up

His Satka (short stick) and dashed it against a pillar in front,

saying - " Get down, Be calm. " At each stroke of the Satka, the flames

began to lower and slow down; and in a few minutes the Dhuni became

calm and normal.
