Dress for Baba.--- BABA AND CHILDREN

[Guest guest]

Jai Sai ram.

 

Ramkkumarji,

 

I normally used to give shawls ocassionally for baba idols in temple ,though nowadays i prefer giving to poor and needy,..eg: 100% cotton clothes to poor children ( as baba stands for childlike in hindi) and during unexpected chilly winters in Mumbai last to last year ,i had given many a pull overs(sweaters) and blankets to underpriveleged people.

 

I think the days when baba used to accpet dakshina were different, as Baba himself would give this of to poor and needy ,hence devotees giving dakshina would reap the benifits.

 

Also there is one nice story about a social worker devotee( dont recall the name) ,who was baffled when baba didnt ask him for dakshina whenever he went to meet baba, and on his asking baba the reasons ,baba told him 'I dont ask you as you already give to me..

"what you give untoothers comes back to me".

 

The idea of this mail is neither to boast or preach, ..so pls do not misinterpret my mail.

Dear RamkumarJai Sai RamThere are many vendors here in Delhi making dress for Baba. You send me your requirement and the budget along with the address and I will pass it on to the proper vendor.Ashok GuptaDear Devotees,A few months earlier, Mr. Ashok Gupta summarized the emails recieved in response to inquiries for purchasing dress to be offered to Baba and sent a list of vendors (with details) who tailor make dress for Baba that we can offer to Him. I seem to have accidentally deleted that email.I kindly request Mr.Gupta ji or any other devotee to forward that email again.ThanksRamkumar
