Sai Baba's Leelas
Unless Sai Baba Himself decided to invite a person, no one can come near Him. The arrival, stay and departure of any one to Shirdi depended upon the wish of Baba.
Kaka Mahajani once came to Shirdi with the intention of staying for a week. Baba ordered him to leave for Bombay next day. At Bombay Mahajani found his boss anxiously waiting for him and had posted a letter to Shirdi in this regard. The letter that came to Shirdi after Kaka Mahajani left was returned to Bombay.
Once Dumal came to Shirdi on his way to attend a hearing in the court of Nibhat. Baba detained him for over a week and then permitted him to go to Nibhat. There he found that the case had been adjourned due to sudden illness of the magistrate.
When Nimonkar and his wife were in Shirdi, their son at Belapur fell sick. Nimonkar, declining the request of his wife to spend a week at Belapur to see their son and relatives, wanted her to return at once. Before leaving Shirdi, she fell at the feet of Sai standing in front of Sathe Wada. Baba said: Go, Stay comfortably at Belapur for four days and return after seeing your relatives. Nimonkar's command was countermanded.
Mule Shastri, an agnihotri Brahmin from Nasik came to Shirdi with Buti. That morning, while on His way to Lendi garden Baba said: Take some jeru (material used to colour clothes to saffron) Let us wear saffron dress to day. None could understand as Baba always wore white dress. During noon arati Baba told Buti to go and fetch dakshina (Money offering) from the Nasik Brahmin. The annoyed Shastri, who felt that as an agnihotri he was superior enough not to give dakshina to Baba, came to outer gate of masjid and stood with flowers in hand, thinking that he would be polluted if he entered a Muslim's place. To his surprise he found his guru Golap Maharaj standing in saffron dress in the masjid and loudly shouting Jai Golap Maharaj, cast the flowers at his feet and prostrated. On getting up he saw a smiling Baba standing in white robe and asking for dakshina. The devotees now understood why Baba said in the morning Let us wear saffron dress today!
A doctor came to Shirdi declaring that as he was devotee of Rama he would not bow before a Muslim in the masjid. But he was the first one to rush in to fall at the feet of Baba, for, he saw Rama in the place of Sai. Then he vowed in his mind that he would not come to masjid unless Baba blessed him. On the third day along with a friend he absentmindedly entered masjid. Immediately Baba remarked Did any one invite this man here?The doctor was moved to tears.
Bow to Shri Sai Peace be to all
Chapter 13
Curing of diseases
Baba said: Those whose sins are obliterated and the lucky one get to worship Me. If you go on repeating Sai, Sai, I will take you beyond the seven seas. Have faith in My words. You will surely be benefited immensely. I do not need the nitty gritty of formal worship. Where there is absolute devotion, I remain there. What else assurance we need?
Bhimaji: A devotee called Bhimaji suffered from tuberculosis and was vomiting blood profusely. On the advice of Nana Chandodkar, he was brought to Shirdi and four people lifted him and placed him at the feet of Baba. Though at the outset Baba appeared to be disinterested, later He remarked with all kindness: Be patient. Cast off your worries. However much a person is trampled by adversities, he starts enjoying happiness immediately on stepping in to this masjid. The masjid maayi (Masjid Mother) is extremely kind. She will protect you with all love and kindness.While at Shirdi, Bhimaji had two dreams, in one he was beaten severely by his teacher for failing to repeat a mathematical formula and in the other some one rolled a stone grinder on his heart. By these two dream-life sufferings Baba fully cured Bhimaji. Bhimaji started celebrating every fortnight Sri Satya Sai Narayan Puja on the lines of the traditional Sri Satyanarayana Puja
Shimpi: Once Bala Shimpi suffered from shivering and fever. Baba cured him simply by advising him to feed a black dog with curd rice.
Buti: Shri Buti was once suffering from loose motion and vomiting. Baba menacingly shook His forefinger saying Now on, You shall not pass.The loose motion stopped! When Buti got cholera, Baba asked him to drink almond and dry fruits mixed in milk. Instead of increasing his discomfort, that mixture completely cured him!
Alandi Swamy: By merely blessing Allah achcha Karega Baba cured the ear pain of this Swamy and saved him from sure surgery.
Mahajani: Once kaka Mahajani, who was suffering from severe purging, came quietly to serve Baba as usual. At that time the portico work of the masjid was in progress. Suddenly for no reason Baba became angry and started hurling abuse. All got frightened and ran away and Mahajani joined them. Baba caught hold of Mahajani. Some one in the melee had left a bag of groundnuts and had run away. Baba ate the groundnuts, gave some to Mahajani, while continuing the abuses. Then he drank some water and asked Mahajani also to drink water and told him that his purging had stopped and he could start the repair works. Can water and groundnuts be ever a medicine to control loose motion?
The incurable stomach pain of DhanthoPant of Hartha was cured by the Udhi and blessings of Baba.
Once when Shama was ailing from piles, Baba cured him by advising him to take senna seeds. (Next time when Shama Patil had piles, he took senna himself and the problem only got aggravated!).
By just uttering “God will Cure You, Baba cured the stomach ailment of the elder brother of Mahajani.
Once when Nana chandodkar was suffering from severe stomach pain, Baba cured him by directing him to take burfi (a sweet dish) mixed in ghee.
Thus, in reality it was Baba's words and Udhi that were curing the patients and not tablets or other medicines.
