Baba's Miracles in my Life
How we entered Baba’s kingdomBaba had entered our household in the year 1982 when I was a child. My brother was around 8 months old and had diarrhea, which was not getting cured despite medication. On the advice of a neighbour, my parents took my brother to Shirdi. And immediately my brother's diarrhea was cured. Thus we were included in Baba's durbar for life.Nothing much had happened in my life till the year 2000 when I suddenly and occasionally witnessed Baba’s miracles.
I started doing Baba’s Parayan and used to chant Vishnu Sahasra Namam daily.I was having tooth ache, I could see a black decay in my tooth. I wanted to go to a dentist but somehow my visit would get postponed. One night I had a dream that there was a doctor and he was drilling my tooth and giving me treatment. The next morning I woke up and checked my tooth and to my delight my tooth decay had gone. This was a miracle, which I had not asked for but I am sure it is Baba’s miracle to show me I am under his patronage.
In the year 2001, I was working in Mumbai and my fiancé was in Hyderabad. We used to fight frequently even thought we loved each other very much, as there were serious problems between us. One day I broke my engagement with him. This was a very difficult period in my life and I suffered a lot mentally. My fiancé then came to Mumbai to make up with me. But I was unsure and so decided to leave everything to Baba and started parayanam. On the last day of parayanam I suddenly felt that I should marry him. I attribute this decision to BABA.
After my marriage, I came back to Mumbai. My mind was very disturbed as my mother in law was a Christian convert and that had an effect on my husband. That night in the train I saw Baba in my dream, and then I saw Christ, then again Baba and then again Christ. I felt that through this Baba had given me the message that Christ and Baba are not different.In the year 2002 another miracle happened in the context of my Visa. My application for a study visa had been rejected on two earlier occasions. So when my company applied for a visa on my behalf the consulate did not give it but put it on observation. I thought my visa had been rejected this time also. I kept praying to Baba. One night I dreamt that some sadhu had come to my house and told me “Do not worry , you will get a visa” and disappeared. Then 2-3 days after which I got a call from consulate that I could go and collect my visa.I was very happy and thankful to Baba. However, while I went to the US, I returned prematurely within 2 months. This left me very disappointed and depressed as I do not understand why Baba did not make me settle there. Now I have so many responsibilities that I cannot go there though I still aspire to go.
I was married in May 2002 but stayed in Mumbai. I could not get a transfer to Hyderabad. In November 2002 I went to Shirdi and prayed for my transfer. I became pregnant in December 2002 and had to take continuous bed rest. Citing this as a strong reason I again applied for a transfer. I was facing difficulties in the process. Then on 7th February 2003 night I had a dream in which I saw a fakir and I felt he was Baba. He asked me for Dakshina, I gave some amount, he asked me for more, which I gave. I felt he was testing me to see if I would give him everything I had. He again asked me for dakshina, and I said I don’t have anything left. He then said: “Do not worry, your transfer will be done”. On Monday when I contacted my manager, he asked me to leave for Hyderabad. Now this was a miracle because none of my papers had been approved and signed, and were still pending but I was asked to leave. What is a greater miracle then this leela of Sai.In April 2003 I was in my 5th month of pregnancy. I was working in an office 5 km from my house. I received a relocation letter to another office which was quite far away. I was very tense as I was not keeping good health and the doctor had advised me rest. I was praying to Baba and was sure He would take care of me. I called one of my colleagues who worked in that office earlier. To my surprise and utter cheer she told me that the office just shifted on the previous day to some other place, which was 7 km from my house. I really thanked Baba for caring for me.
My mother in law had converted to Christianity and before I came to her house in Hyderabad she told me that I should not put any photos and I should not light Diya. But does Baba leave his kids? To my utter surprise when I came to Hyderabad my Father in law gave me a calendar with Baba’s photo. I had stuck that calendar on the wall with a gum. One day the calendar fell down, and I did not put it back on the wall. After few days I wanted to do parayanam of Baba. And I could not find the calendar photo. I searched frantically for it and thought that my Mother in law had thrown it away. It was Wednesday and I was wondering whether to buy a new photo of Baba since I wanted to start parayanam the next day.But can you imagine what had happened? While rearranging the clothes on the shelves my mother in law found that calendar and gave it to me. What a great miracle. Baba had not only come to me in time but also proved that my Mother in law was innocent by giving me calendar through her.

Shirdi Sai Baba's Dubai visit
Sairam,thorugh Baba's grace the Dubai people got to experience the presence of shirdi Baba here! They?re no words to explain this, rather to say it's beyond words! One Mr. Vasu Shroff an industrialist is a devotee of Baba. About 2 years back he had gone to shirdi and prayed to Baba asking him as to when He was coming to Dubai. When he opened his eyes he saw a piece of paper on his lap. It said, " I will come on the 15th of April 2004"! . There is a Shirdi group, which conducts sathsang every Friday at a place in Jumairah [Dubai]. They had a got an idol from Shirdi and wanted to install that. Since Baba told MR.Vasu that he will be coming on the 15th of April, they wanted the installation on that day. Baba came in Vasu's dream telling him that he will give him darshan at 2am on the 15th. Round the clock preparations were going on for the installation. At around 1.30 am Mr Vasu asked all the people working there to go home. Baba had told Mr. VASU THAT HE WANTED SOLITUDE AND THAT ONLY 4 PEOPLE, CAN SEE HIM. MR. Vasu had slept off and Baba appeared in his dream and told him " I am waiting outside the villa when are u coming" [ Mr. Vasu's residence is elsewhere]. Baba also told him that he wanted his driver Sharma to welcome him.
So when MR. Vasu went to the villa he saw that the doors were open and all the lights were on at 2am! He saw Baba as 30-year-old man. Baba sat in the mandir and wrote messages in 11 slips of paper. Baba materialized rudraksha mala for Mr. Vasu.He gave one small vijayasthamb[for victory]. Baba said whosoever prays touching the vijayasthamb with pure devotion will get success in life. Baba wore old padukas and came there. Baba said that they belonged to, lord Siva. MR. Vasu asked baba to give his footprints in chandan.
A cloth was spread and Baba gave his footprints in them. About 9 of them are there going towards the shrine! Then he came out and went to the opposite room and said that he wanted to take rest for sometime. Now they have named the room as Dwarakamayi. Meanwhile one lady whom MR. Vasu had informed [one of the 4] called. Then Baba went and sat in Mr. Vasu's car. Then HE kept the padukas on MR. Vasu's head. Then MR. Vasu went around the car 7 times with Baba sitting inside. By that time the lady arrived. She got His darshan! Baba gave her 2 mangoes and blessed here. Then he asked Mr. Vasu to get into the car and take him the Sonapur temple. Mr. Vasu had lost his daughter about 7 years ago. When the car reached the temple he saw his daughter standing there at the entrance! Baba told him " u were worrying about her now she is with me!" then Baba got down from the car and went to the temple. His daughter merged into Baba and Baba went into the temple and disappeared. All things, which he has materialized, are kept in the temple for everyone to see. He also told that when he wants the padukas it would come back to him. The old wooden padukaas, the mala, the writings and the vijayasthamb can be seen by everyone. Baba also lit the akhanda jyothi there and it is still burning. They are going to convert the whole place into shirdi! The pujari from Shirdi has also come for this purpose. The installation is over and the regular aarthi goes on like it happens in Shirdi. What can be said about HIS grace!
As said before it is just beyond words!

Om srisairam gurudevadatta,Sairam to all the manifestations of baba sai.
Baba bless venkatji, for such a nice forum. Its great work. Baba sai is everything to me. I fell blessed to experience his divine love. Though I have many experiences of baba sai. The recent one being sai ma operated my tooth. My husband and myself we stay in Canada. I had a tooth ache, dentist suggested me to get root canal surgery done. I am scared of surgery, also it’s financially, not feasible for us. So I told my husband baba is there, so I was daily applying “UDI”. The other day, I had a dream, a doctor came to me and introduced himself as Dr.venkat.( since tirumala venkateswara swamy is our family diety, I call sai ma as om namosaivenkatesya namaha). He then called little girl, who was his assistant to prepare anaesthesia, but she broke the bottle. He then told me I will do surgery without anaesthesia. You won’t have pain. I said baba will take care of me. pls do surgery. He did. The dream ended there.Next day morning I could feel the pain in the tooth, and I see blood where the surgery was done.
Now I am fine.See the miracle of sai ma. Baba is with all of us.Baba bless all with peace and happinessOm srisairam gurudevadatta

My Dear most friends,
Today being thursday our BABA day, I want to share one more miracle which happened in September this year.My first son who lives in Austin was in the look out for a house, but nothing worked out to his liking/budget. Then, suddenly he got house which he wanted to buy from August 06... but some one had booked it and he lost it. The first guy who booked it could not complete the formalities and hence signed a release order and my son signed the agreement and got the keys in his hand on September 28.... which was our DEAR SAI'S birthday. It just happened in 2 days. My first son ashok is also an ardent follower of Shirdi Sai and we were so so pleasantly surprised that it happened on Baba's day. Baba blessed our family on this holy divine day!I am visiting my son tomorrow to see the new home.
My friends please extend your blessings and good wishes for the couple! I pray that BABA HELP ALL OF US, GUIDE US AND BLESS US ALWAYS!!OM SAI RAMSasikala

Today being a thursday, I feel like sharing this incident with you all (I have posted this in saibaba.org some months back).When we moved to our new home, we did the house-warming ceremony. The priest had given us the good time between 6 and 8am. Since none of our relatives and friends were here with us, I prayed to Sai, "Sai, it is just the two of us doing the pooja with the priest. I have none to invite except You. You should come to our home in any form on the day of the pooja and accept food from us. But then, Sai, when You come, please let me realize it is You, for I have no wish to let go of You like Mr. B. V. Dev did." Though I know Him to be all-pervasive, yet this simple mind took delight in inviting Him.The pooja went on well, with just me and my husband there. At that time (so early in the morning), not even a postman would come to deliver mails. So I consoled myself saying it was stupid of me to look for Sai outside when He is the very reason for the beating of my heart. Shortly afterwards, the priest got a call from another devotee in the same area saying he is coming to pick up the priest from our home for some function in his house.
Initially it meant nothing to me except I was thinking it saved us a trip back to the temple to drop the priest. But just as I had prayed, the thought of me inviting Sai in any form flashed in my mind and my happiness was indescribable. The pooja was over and the prasadam was packed with all love for my Sai who was going to be there soon.The devotee came inside, stood in the middle of the hallway, looked around the house and said "The house looks nice. Congratulations on your new home." All of a sudden, he glanced at me and stood cross-legged just like our SaiNath (in a picture) and thanked us for the prasadam. I looked at him, then at his feet and was pleasantly surprised. It was as though Sai was telling me it was indeed He who had come.
I mentally placed my head at the feet of my Sai (the devotee who had come) and thanked Him for fulfilling an earnest desire of this simple devotee.
Thank you, Sai.Jai Sairam!-Nandini

Pranams to my sai friends,
My second son Anand was in deep trouble when he got 2 Fs in the 2nd sem. in NY, USA. He missed his family back in India and due to cultural shock, although he was a very bright engineering student, lost interest and started sulking and avoiding masters degree and failed in 2nd sem. A point came when he was thrown out of the school and my first son who was living in Vermont, took him to his house during Aug 05.
You can imagine the amount of trauma we all went through and worst was, he gained weight, no $, no studies, long hair and depressed. He will not answer our phone calls and will eat junk food all the time and gained weight like crazy. I tightly held our SAIMA's feet and surrendered to him completely. After he landed in VT, the same day he had a telephone interview with one of the biggest corporations in the world (IBM) and the very next day, he got this job.... and believe it or not, the guy who hired him was an Indian and is an ardent devotee of shirdi Baba. He has even released a SAI calander for 2005. Then there is no looking back. He did very well in the job, bought a Honda car and now he looks so charming, lost 37 lbs. travels throught out the US and very goal oriented. He has become a strong believer in SAI and when we go down, he cheers up saying sai's name.
My son's change in his life could not have happened but for the grace of our SAI. I have more miracles which I will post in instalments.BHOLO SADGURU SAINATH MAHARAJKI JAI!!One thing I must tell... Baba definitely tests people's shraddha and then only blesses us. So please dont loose your faith and confidence. Keep chanting SRI SAI always. BABA WILL BLESS US ALWAYS!Om sai sri sai jaya jaya saisasikala

DEVOTEES EXPERIENCES:
Date: 12/19/2003 04:35:51 +0000
From: "shoba sridhar" :
Sairam, I am a follower of Shirdi Sai and have been constantly guided by Him through the help of Uncle Saibanisaji. Our prayers to Sai Maharaj and Uncle Saibanisaji. I would like to share one of my experiences that put a dramatic change in our life. Last year from August, I was laid off for four months nearly, after a six years of service in a reputed company. That shattered my faith and hope of existence in this country, and constantly I prayed to Baba, and even thought about going back to India. At that time Uncle Saibanisaji used to advise that Baba is aware of my situation and He is presenting a good opportunity. I could not believe, as we started spending from our savings.
On the Thursday 19th December last year, I had a dream of Shirdi Sai, which I vividly remember even now. It was early morning around 2 am or so. I was walking with lot of people in a spiritualistic place, and someone shows me the footprints on the grass, saying that Baba has walked through this way. And he says, if I want to see Shirdi Sai, I must take that path and follow. I go through that path, and it leads me to a big tree with lot of branches and huge shade underneath. I see people walking around in circle of the tree, where a big tomb is kept. The tomb top is open and see the body of Shirdi Sai lying there. His structure looks wooden and as if He has been there in that state lifeless. When I approach his body, to touch for Blessings, suddenly Sai wakes up and throws a wood or something at me angrily saying "You wanted this, take it" and immediately .His angry face turned into a smile, with His teeth showing and wrinkles in eyes. This is happening while all the people of going around in circles. I was startled and woke up suddenly.
Exactly one week later, I was called for an interview and was placed in a position in Chicago by a company, amidst confusion of pay, visa etc. I started working from there, and continuing with His Grace, moved my family etc. I am now under the strong influence of Sai that nothing happens without His will, and if we have full faith in Him and worship, there will always be constant happiness and peace in our lives.Thank you,Sairam.

Sairam to all,
I would like to share one of my experiences with you all.This happened to me last year.. I was travelling in an auto and I left my purse in the auto itself. My debit card and some amount were there in the purse. I also had a photo of Saibaba pada (which is a very rare photo). When I reached my home, I realized that my purse was missing. I immediately started crying. I was very much worried about the photo as that was very precious to me. All my friends were with me. They assured me that I would get another photo of the same kind. But I wanted the same photo. Then I was taken to the bank by my friends to block the debit card. While traveling to the bank, I was continuously praying asking Baba to help me and get back my purse. Then we went to the bank and blocked the card. I also thought of applying for a new card but the staff there asked me to wait for two days saying that I might get my card back. Then I came back from the bank just to know that the purse was returned safely by a stranger. It seems that a person who boarded the auto had seen the purse and asked the driver about it. The driver had said that it was his purse. But the passenger not believing him, as it was ladies purse commanded him to drop him at the place where I got down. Then the purse was got by my friend. On knowing this, I was in tears thinking about the leela of Baba who has come to the rescue of an ignorant person like me.In normal cases people would have taken the purse..but in this case it was Baba who came in the same auto and returned my purse. I do not have words to explain the greatness of Baba.
Baba is the savior of all.Sairam bless us all always!!!!!!!!Meenakshi

Sairam to all Saibandhus.
This happened a few months back. I have been working with tight deadlines in the project and obviously stretching myself in the office. One of the nights, I was returing late from the office as usual.I was driving at high speed may be more than 75 KM/Hour. It was a double road and all of a sudden, out of the blue, a dog jumped over the median right in front of my car. I hardly had any reaction time and I tried applying brakes. I could hear the yells of the dog. My car had travelled considerable distance by then and I didnt have the heart to look back. I was very disturbed over the incident.
I was praying to Shirdi Sai's moorthy in my car that the dog should be safe. If at all I had ran over the dog, I prayed to Shirdi Sai to forgive me as I was definitely not in a position to apply brakes when a dog was jumping right over the median. All I was doing was praying to Shirdi Sai to wipe my sins for doing this.
After travelling 1 KM or 2 KM, my car had to halt at a junction. Another car came from behind and the person parked just adjacent to me. He was trying to converse with me. I opened the window. The gentleman said - "Sir, Please relax. The dog is safe. I can see the tension in your face. Do not worry at all. The dog is absolutely fine". I was so relieved and thanked the gentleman for letting me know this information.Thank you Sai for listening to my prayers.Bholo Shri Satchitdananda Sadguru Sainath Maharaj Khi Jai!Sairam,Jagadeesh
This happened a few months back. I have been working with tight deadlines in the project and obviously stretching myself in the office.

Om Sai Ram.
Sai Baba has been very very kind to our baby girl who turned one year old a few months back. She is still under lots of medical supervision due to her health issues. Some time in September, one of the doctors got very worried about her and wanted to do an urgent surgery on her. We were so panicked and we wanted to follow up with another doctor but that doctor did not want to wait and the clinic tried to force the surgery on us through various means including filing a complaint about us with the local authorities that we are medically neglecting our baby. That became very serious as that could have meant a court case and all that. It was real bad time for us. We went and showed our baby to another doctor and he was happy with baby’s progress and told us that we can wait till next January for a follow-up and there is no urgency of the surgery.
So we were vastly relieved but still the case with the local authorities was going on. And Sai Baba is very very kind and very very great that he resolved that case also and the case was closed since the second doctor nullified the first doctor’s complaint. THANK YOU VERY MUCH SAI BABA FOR EVERYTHING. Please be with us and all your devotees always. We pray to you with full Shraddha and Saburi. Om Sai Ram.

Shri Sai Blesses Those Who Surrender to Him
In the present days, when the people are being more materialistic in natureand are having little or no faith in the existence of God, Shri Sai LeelaMagazine is doing the best of the service for the propagation of Shri ShirdiSai Baba's divinity to various people of different mentalities. Though ShriSai Baba had left the body in 1918, His devotees are experiencing His leelaseven now in times of need and necessity.
My entire family is devoted to ShriSai Baba for more than three decades. With confidence that this simpleexperience would intensify the existing faith in Sai devotees, I amnarrating this in the name of Shri Sai Baba.My daughter Kum. Niveditha after passing her X Class, discontinued herstudies. After a lapse of two years, I got her admitted in Intermediatecourse. She appeared for the first year Inter Annual examination in March,1980 along with her dear friend Kum. Sri Devi. The results were publishedand Lo ! Kum. Niveditha failed in all the five subjects while her friendpassed in all the subjects. My daughter with grief and disappointment askedme to allow her to discontinue her studies as she could not face her friendswith such a total failure in all subjects.I consoled her and convinced her not to give up studies on the cause of herfailure. I encouraged her to go ahead with immense devoted faith in Shri SaiBaba.
I assured her of her success in the ensuing examination in September,1980, in case she cast her burden on the shoulders of Shri Sai Baba withcomplete surrender coupled with Nishtha and Saburi, I also advised her todo parayana for seven days as prescribed in the sacred book "Shri Sai Babas,Jeevitha Charitha" in Telugu, readily available in our house.
I also assuredher that Baba is there to look after the needs and comforts of those whosurrender even now.Kum. Niveditha too is an ardent and sincere devotee of Shri Sai. She made avow to visit Shirdi in case she passed in the ensuing examinations inSeptember, 1980. Completely surrendering herself to Baba, and with firmbelief and confidence in Him, she completed the parayana of the sacred bookin seven days as prescribed. She was regularly studying the lessons of allthe five subjects in which she failed, in addition to the regular classlessons of the current year.In September, 1980 on the first day of the examination, casting her burdenon Shri Sai, and with sacred Udhi on forehead, she answered the questionpaper to her satisfaction. This gave her enough of courage to answer thepapers on other days.In was a surprise for her to know that she passed in all the five subjectswhen the results were published, while many of her friends passed in one ortwo subjects only, After the Marks list was received, it was noticed thatKum. Niveditha got appreciable marks and in fact more marks than her friendKum. Sri Devi, who passed in March itself. Our joy knew no bounds and ourfaith in Baba created abundantly.
To fulfil the promised vow of Kum. Nivedetha, we all the family membersmade pilgrimage to Shirdi and offered our humble pranaras to Shri Sai Babafor His kindness. Eversince that dayKum. Nivedithas faith in Shri Sai hasbeen boundlessly increased. She is observing a complete fast on Thursdays toher own satisfaction and she is not experiencing any weariness on that daythough she is attending the college for a continuous period of five to sixhours. Has not Shri Sai come to her rescue and blessed her with a completesuccess? The consequences of her disappointed failure would have been fataland quite unexpected. But Baba did not wish that. He never deserts the onewho surrenders to Him.
He with His ever blessing hands favoured her with acomplete success and not only intensified her deep devotion and faith in Himbut also made many a devotee of Him to be assured of safe and sure successif one ever casts his entire burden on Him with complete surrender.Shri Sai is ready to shower His blessings on the trusted even nowwithout any discrimination provided the appeal is sincere andfaithful.D.L- Kanta Rao,Nandyal TalukKurnool District.(Andhra Pradesh)

Ashwini pradhan:
Ashwini pradhan:Dear Sai Bandhus:My recent mammogram report showed that I had a fibroid and a cyst, onfurther consulation I learnt that its in the BIRADS category 2. Thismade all my family members very anxious as we had just lost our dearfather, a month back due to cancer. I consulted few oncologist to decidethe next steps and was very much anxious about what the docs would say.Finally I decided to consult Dr. Suresh Advani,Indias leadingoncologist, I was praying Baba fervently, that Dr. Advani should allaymy fears.
And when I finally met him, he told me exactly the same, but with somecaveats like exercise and nutritious diet as against unhealthy diet. Ithink its all due to my Babas blessings that the report was not aworrying one, though I treat it as a timely warning to not neglect myhealth any further.Koti Koti Pranams to my mother Sai, who is my sole refuge in this worldfilled with maya to the brim.

EARLIER MAIL WRITTEN ON 30th AUGUST 2007
Om Sai Ram,Baba is everything and we are nothing. As Baba has said "Always remember Allah. Everything is Him. We are nothing nothing, He is evrything everything"I would like to share with all Sai Bhaktas my experiences. While there are so many so I am writing one just now:
I was working in a high position & high salary(By Baba's grace) in a company. I used to deal with the top industrialists and top CEOs only. This was also arranged by Baba. Then the atmosphere in the office started changing. I also started to loose interest and finally it was a point of no return. My daughter was also born around the same time and in an impulsive moment I decided to put in my papers. This was just 10 days after my daughters birth. I did not have any job and did not know what next. But Baba was arranging things differently for me. I tried through consultants etc but no job offers. I told my wife that I will perhaps take a salary cut of about 30% and get into some job.Separately I was called by Baba to Shirdi in February and had very good darshan.
Then in March there was a ceremony of my daughter for which lot of my relations had come down. For that I had to be present round the clock at my home for 7 days. After all this was over I suddenly got a call from a friend that there is an opportunity in a company. I went with him and immediately I was appointed. And my salary was exactly 30% higher than my last job (while I was looking at a 30% reduction). It was all due to Baba. But I must confess that I had tried on my own and got nothing. But when I left my fate in His hands and just played along with Him, Baba then took care of the entire situation.Today I am in a similar situation. I am looking at a job change. Infact I have already put in my papers and working in my notice period now. Another month or so is left. I have tried and again failed in getting a break. This time also I ma thinking of a salary cut since I am at relatively higher salary.The only hope and strength that I have is Baba. I have left everything in His hands. And I am sure that He will get me another good break. Till then I will play with Him and pray to Him. Baba is my friend, my saviour, my mother & father.
He is everything. Shraddha and Saburi is required and I am sure He Himself will help us - His children, to get his Grace and Love.I pray to Baba that He should always shower His Love & Grace on all Sai Bhaktas.May Baba bless all of you.This is a wonderful forum and I hope that more Sai Bhaktas come here and enjoy the bliss.I will inform all of you when Baba gives me another job.Om Sai RamAnanta Koti Brahmanda nayak rajadhiraj yogiraj para brahma shri sachchidananda sadguru shri Sai nath maharaj ki jaiOm Sai Ram Recently by his grace he got one more jobOm Sai Ram,I wrote the following mail almost 4 months back. The same mail is at the end of this mail.Today as I write I have got a job with one of the biggest company in India and globally by Baba's grace.
I wanted to share this with you because we may doubt ourselves and forget Baba but He never forgets us and removes all our doubts. He always stands by us.He had indicated to me that I will be getting a good job and He has given me that. He also told me earlier the terms on which I will be hired and exactly the same has happened. He has given me everything that I desired. And He only arranged everything. I did nothing. He is our Antaryami and knows the inner most secrets. He is God. He is everything.Now I am going to join this job on a Thursday as indicated and ordered by Baba. I am in the process of submitting my documents and medical examination. I hope and pray to Baba that all goes well with that also. He has told me that all will be ok.Baba is everything and we are nothing. Only we have to have faith.
Shraddha and Saburi are not just two words but they are the treasure and way of life. If we all can only hold to the lotus feet of Baba and have total Shraddha and Saburi then the impossible becomes possible and the mystery of life is solved.Baba you are great, you are my everything. Aapko koti koti pranam, koti koti namashkar Baba.I had promised that I will inform all of you when Baba gives me another job. He has given me another job and I want to share this with you.Ananta koti brahmnda nayak rajadhiraj yogiraj parabrahma Shri Satchidananda Satguru Shri Sainath Maharaj ki JaiOm Sai RamJai Sai RamSai sai sai sai
