sairam friends,

It is my humble request to everyone who reads this

” try to read books written by pujyashri H.H. Narasimha swamiji ” on shirdi saibaba. Books such as “Life of saibaba” “Devotees experiences” are truely beautiful.

I was reading about the life of Narasimha swamiji and his books about shirdi saibaba from 6.4.2008 …i was hooked by the wonderful service rendered by Narasimha swamiji to spread Baba’s glory from 1936. It was Narasimha swamiji who created a country wide movement to spread the name and fame of our shirdi saibaba.

Though i was too depressed thinking about my career and personal life, my faith in sai baba made me survive by reading Baba’s life written by Narasimha swamiji.

On 8.4.2008, i hugged the book “Life of saibaba” to my chest and slept praying baba ..i was deeply worried and in pain thinking surely the next day onwards my life will be good.

That night i had a dream like this..

“I am walking some where between few houses in a cement street between the 2 row of houses. Suddenly i fall down and got hit exactly on the back of my head …

I was shocked by the blow …and i could see people running to me and wondered how could i standup when lots of blood is bleeding from the head.

I am also shocked but i myself wonder if i have pain or not..

I woke up in the morning and wondered what does baba mean by this dream..Infact i never saw saibaba in the dream..its my firm faith that we doesnt have to see babas form to learn its a dream from saibaba’s blessings.

In evening while i was walking in road, felt i must request my sister to take care of her baby. I also felt probably baba has protected me from being hurt in any accident.

Then i came home n was searching for few saibaba materials . I came across this leela of baba which happened during sai baba’s life time

Baba has blessed Sai sharan Anand during his life time the same way when he had a injury on head …

read the incident which happened during baba’s life time..

Prangondji and his wife, Manigori had gone on a pilgrimage to Shirdi. Baba blessed them and Sai Sharanand was born on 05.04.1889. The village was Mota, Bardoli Taluka in Surat. He was named Vamanrao Prana Govind Patel.

At the age of three, he was seriously ill and his parents were worried about his survival. Baba appeared as a Fakir and gave his mother Udi. He asked her to give it to her son as Tirth. He mentioned that there was a scar on his back towards the right side. “He will be a great Satpurush,” said the Fakir. The mother followed the instructions and the child recovered.

Vamanrao did his primary schooling at Surat and Ahmadabad. He completed his B.A. in 1910 from Elphinstone College, Bombay and subse­quently passed LL.B. in 1912.

Vaman had a questioning mind and he kept asking his professors and other saints whether God was real or a nebulous phenomenon. No one could give him a satisfactory answer. His father took him to Shri Balakrishna Maharaj, a disciple of Swami Samarth. When he asked the question, the Maharaj flew into a rage, but gave him two books, the Life of Akkalkot Maharaj and Eknath Bhagavat. Still unsatisfied, he went to Shirdi on his father’s advice in 1911. Baba seeing him said, “Why do you worry about God; there is God.”

Sai Sharan AnandAfter joining a solicitor’s firm in 1913, he came to Shirdi during his vacation and stayed there for one year, as Baba refused permission for his return. The parents were worried about his whereabouts and welfare. They consulted an astrologer who said,

“He is safe in God’s paradise (Shirdi)”. Permission was finally granted to him so he returned home. In 1916, he came to the station to see his friend who was bound for Shirdi, when he too suddenly decided to join him. He stayed at Shirdi for 21 days.

One day, he sustained a severe head injury when a huge bolder stone accidentally fell on his head, as he walked past Butti Wada. He started bleeding profusely and was semi conscious. By Baba’s grace he recovered without even a scar or internal damage.

When Vaman Rao was questioned about his injury, he said he experienced divine bliss. From that day, he became a staunch devotee of Baba. He wrote Guru Smriti in Gujarati in 1932. In 1946, he wrote Baba’s life called ‘Sai Baba’. Baba gave him Sanyas in Dakor, appearing as a Fakir and named him Sai Sharan Anand. In 1961, he wrote ‘Sai Baba the Superman’.

A devotee gave him Baba’s Padukas. At first he refused. Later he accepted them and installed them at Ahmadabad where Baba’s temple, called ‘Vishnu Dharmalaya’, houses them. Thousands of devotees flock there, to have darshan, and many healings and miracles are witnessed. He states that from 1952, after his sanyas, Baba was with him all the time getting His service done through him. On 25.08.1982, he took Samadhi.

thats the Leela which happened during babas life time.

when i read the above incident of Sai sharan Anandji who never had any pain when a stone fell on his head and even blood came out…he answered “He felt a divine bliss”

Friends, i was worried about my life and wondered if saibaba of shirdi has some thing good in store for me and true to my feelings baba has infact blessed me through this dream…Sai baba of shirdi has blessed me by giving this blow on my head in dream, made the blood come out and shocked me but true to the above leela during babas life time

“i feel saibaba has really blessed me whole heartedly and surely sai has washed away the sins i had done in past by making me feel the shock in dream”

Baba i am thankful to you for this beautiful dream and also answering me with the incident which happened in your life.

Baba please make me do things as you wish..I am your child …all i request is please bless me to make my parents happy and satisfied that i settled in my life

Sai ki jai
