A Couple of Sai Baba Experiences – Part 719

Sai Baba Blessed Me With A Job

Sai sister Shweta from India says: Jai Sai Ram to all. My name is Shweta and I live in Gurgaon. I have always believed in God and worshiping. I always knew about Sai Baba and knew people who followed Sai Baba but I started following Him last year. My mother introduced me to Sai Baba and asked me to do Sai Baba Vrat. And this is how I got connected with Baba and day after day my faith in Him has got increased. I truly believe that Baba does everything for His devotees and gives them what they deserve. I have got two different experiences to share with you all. They might sound very small to others but for me they are Baba’s blessings.

First Experience: I am in a relationship from past 3.5 years and we love each other. We want to get married, but his family is not in the favour of our marriage because we are not from the same caste. He is a Brahmin and I am a Baniya by caste. My family likes the guy and wants us to get married, but his family isn’t ready. Since 2011 we have been trying to persuade his family to agree for our marriage. We have seen a lot of ups and downs in our families and in our relationship but we both have stood beside each other in every situation. Last year in September, his mother matched our horoscope and it didn’t match, but still she tried talking to his father but his father said no for our marriage. We both were shattered and for his family’s sake he decided to end our relationship because we both don’t want to take any step to hurt them. I was heartbroken and didn’t know what to do. I was doing Sai Baba Vrat during that time and after this I cries in front of Baba very badly and begged Him to do something so that we can be together because we really love each other. On the next day itself, I got a call from his mother asking me to talk to my parents if they are ok with Name matching for the marriage. This was Baba’s way to show that he cannot see me crying and he cares for me. My joys knew no boundaries. Though it is a small hope, but we both are still together and still trying to persuade his father for our marriage. I pray to Baba everyday and read Sai Satcharitra every day. I have even done Saptah Parayan once with my one wish. I know Baba will give me what is good for me. Please Baba always be with me and bless me and everybody.

Second Experience: This is my most recent Baba’s experience. I lost my job in February, 2014 and was desperately looking for a job. I live in a rented house and was facing a financial crunch as I had no money and did not get my salary from my previous company as well. Every day I use to pray to Baba that please get me a job and my salary from the previous company. I struggled for two months and decided if I do not get a job by April, 2014 I will give a notice in my flat and leave Gurgaon and go back to Jaipur. Baba knew I did not want to go back and want to work here only. In the last week of April, on Sunday I prayed to Baba to get me a job as soon as possible and my salary cheque by coming Tuesday because I was in a great mess. I was very disheartened because I did not get any positive response on Tuesday and cried a lot in front of Baba. I know Baba can’t see me crying so He blessed me with two things I prayed for on the next day. I got an offer letter from a very good educational company and also I got a confirmation from my previous company that they will release my salary on Thursday which is Baba’s day. Baba always listens to our prayers and fulfils all our wishes. I truly feel that if we have Shraddha and Saburi Baba always blesses us. Thank you Baba for everything You have done for me, my family, and his family. Always be with us and guide us. I surrender myself in Your Lotus Feet. I know You will fulfil my one wish for which I am struggling from such a long time. Love You Baba. Ananta Koti Brahmand Nayak Raja Dhiraj Yogi Raj Par Brahma Shri Sachidanand Sadguru Sai Nath Maharaj Ki Jai. Jai Sai Ram

I Surrender To Sai

Anonymous Devotee from US says: I live with my family in New York City. I have two sons, aged 26 and 20 years. My husband worked with the United Nations and has just retired. I work as a teacher in an International school. Sai is my Guru, my God, and my Saviour. He is a living presence in my life and now I seek Him for out every problem in my life, big and small. My life would have no meaning without faith in my Baba. The year 2013 was extremely difficult for me and involved unexpected incidents involving my younger son who is generally a wonderful person. I was so traumatized, I went into a deep depression. I couldn’t eat, sleep, or had any motivation to do even ordinary, everyday chores. It was an effort to communicate with anyone. I did not think I would ever recover but I was fortunate to come back to my Sai for solace, peace, and healing.

Over the summer of 2013, everyday, I watched the online live Darshan in Shirdi, read a chapter of the Satcharitra, went to a Sai Mandir 30 miles away every Thursday, and chanted Baba’s name all the time. It was Baba Who took care of my son, and the rest of my family during those dark days. Slowly I recovered enough to allow him to go to study in Oxford, England. Baba saw to it that my fears and anxieties did not come in the way of my son seizing this wonderful opportunity in his life. Every day, every moment I pray to Baba to protect my son and guide him to make the right choices. I will relate two recent incidents. In his second trimester, one morning, my son noticed a white spot on his pupil. The eye also was very irritated and painful. The pharmacist advised him to see a doctor immediately. My son enquired about a medical centre from his college, made calls and finally got an appointment for 8:30pm. I was very worried, it was almost the end of the trimester, he was alone in a different country and none of us were in a position to go even if necessary. My husband was in the process of getting his green card, my passport was in the UN for an extension of my visa, and my older son was in Business School. The doctor told my son that he had an eye ulcer because of using contact lenses and gave him drops to put in his eyes every hour throughout the night and for the next two days. He was given an appointment with an eye specialist two days later on Monday. The eye doctor also advised him to continue the drops and come back in three days. His eye recovered and he completed his trimester successfully. All I did was to pray to Baba to take care of my son and He did.

Again last week, my son cut his finger accidentally in the gym at 10:30 at night. It was a deep cut, it was bleeding quite profusely and he received first aid at the gym. The finger was so tightly bandaged that it turned blue in some time. My son called to ask me what he should do. I was scared that if he loosened the bandage his finger would start bleeding again. It was midnight for him and I was very anxious. I told him to put some Udi on his finger and then loosen the bandage. With Baba’s grace, the bleeding stopped even after the bandage was loosened and in some time, the numbness in the finger was gone and it regained its normal colour. Baba takes care of all our problems, small and big, except that we may not immediately comprehend His methods. At this time, in our lives, we are going through major transitions, there are a number of problems and till recently, I used to bargain with Baba, becoming angry when something did not happen as we wished. Now, Baba has presented me the wisdom to place all of our problems at His feet, and to ask Him only for strength and guidance. Ever since I did this, I feel liberated and at peace. I know that Baba will test us in many ways but He will not leave us rudderless, He will continue to be our anchor, our saviour. Sai Ram.

Sai Baba Solved My Problem

Anonymous Devotee from US says: Sai Baba showed me the path. I stay in US. Please don’t mention my name and id. There are many instances in my life where Sai Baba is ahead of me and showed the path. I would like to share two of these. One thing is I am searching for a job over few years, keeping the faith and patience on Sai Baba. Finally I got the job. But when I got the job, the commute to my work location is very far. And I can’t drive such a long distance. I was praying to Baba to solve my problem. I also promised Baba that if this problem is solved I will post it here. I was searching online and everywhere. I stay in US where if you don’t drive, there is nothing you can do by yourself. Suddenly a miracle happened, just few weeks before I start my job, I found a carpool guy who stays near to me. He posted online that to share the gas and toll. Lucky I met him and he said, he will charge $** daily as expense and we met their family and they are from same state as we are from India. I could able to talk to them in my mother language, which made good family friends. I have started carpool with him from day 1 of my job. Please I am praying Baba to shower blessings on me and my family and on every Sai devotee. Sai Ram. Sai Baba Ki Jai

  4. MERCIFUL SAIBABA

    (Shri Sai Leela March 1986)

    The Leelas of Saibaba who is the ocean of Mercy are many in the lives of His devotees. I wish to share one such Leela with the devotee readers of Shree Sai Leela through this maiden article.

    It was on a Tuesday of June, 1960, (I do not remember the exact date) a tall and well built Fakir with a joli stood near our Shri jewellary shop, Pot Market, Secunderabad. He had to wait for more than half an hour as I was busy with the customers. When I was little bit free I asked "What do you want?" "Five annas" was the immediate reply of the Fakir. I searched the cash box but did not find one anna to make "Five annas". He refused to accept either more or less. Suddenly he asked "Are you not suffering from severe stomach pain?" On hearing this I was shocked and surprised for a couple of minutes. I wondered as to how the beggar could know my ailment. It was a fact that I was suffering from pain and no specialist treatment could give me complete relief. He agreed to give me 'medicine' on certain conditions. First, I should stop other medicines. Second, I should start pooja of Shirdi Sai Baba from Thursday after getting relief by that day. He had given some concession regarding pooja. If possible I could offer sweets as naivedya otherwise I should light atleast two agar-batties and offer namaskar. A simple pooja was advised by him. I expressed my willingness to carry out all the conditions. Then he wanted me to spread my palms before him. I obeyed. He put 'Udi' (sacred ash) taking out from his joli into my hands with instruc­tions to take a little quantity inside the mouth and also to apply on forehead. He wanted me to follow this treatment for two days only i.e., on Tuesday and Wednesday. As assured by the Fakir I got complete relief on the third day i.e. Thursday. In this connec­tion we may remember Baba's assurance vide Chapter 13 of Sai Satcharita "If you surrender to Me with devotion, I will ever be with you day and night". As stated in the same chapter of Sai Satcharita, I feel "The real medicine that cured the various dise­ases permanently was Baba's word and grace and not any medicine or drugs".

    Regarding his consultation fees, now he enhanced from five annas to one rupee four annas. The four anna bits I was having earlier were now not available (perhaps given to customers) to give one rupee and four annas "fees". He again refused to accept either one pie more or less. While I was searching he slowly slipped away. We made hectic search. But did not find him anywhere. We may here note Sai Baba's declaration to Megha "I require no door to enter. I have no form nor any extension. I always live everywhere" {Chap. 28 of Satcharit) Such being the case how was it possible for a human being like me to find Him.

  5. The readers may note that Baba was always demanding and accepting from certain devotees specified amount only. He was accepting neither less nor more. What Baba demanded from me might not be five annas but (1) five senses (2) five pranas, (3) mind (4) intellect and (5) ego. If it were money He would have accepted whatever was offered by me.

    His instruction to put atleast two agarbathis reminds us of the two coins viz., Faith and Patience which Sai demands from the devotees. The emphasis on the word 'atleast' reminds us of His declaration in Chap-13 of Satcharita "I do not need any parapher­nalia of worship either eightfold or sixteen fold. I rest there where there is full devotion".

    My beloved parents Late S. Megharaj Jain and Srimathi Keli Bai were devout persons doing regular pooja of our family dieties. Shirdi Sai did not find a place in the Pooja Mandir till this incident. After completely getting relief I started Sai pooja on the very day He wanted me to do. In the month of August, 1960 (date do not remember) we visited Shirdi for the first time. The Fakir clearly told me to worship Shirdi Sai Baba and directed me to go Shirdi only. Dear Readers! The Fakir who came to my shop was found sitting on the throne in the Samadhi Mandir of Shirdi. Perhaps to confirm to me that the Fakir was none else than Sai Baba, He was sitting till I put one rupee four annas in the Hundi and later disappeared I saw the attractive marble statue only in place of the Fakir after offering the dakshina.

    The above experience affirms the truth stated by the author of Sai Satcharita vide Chap. 33 "Was Baba living because He was in the body and is He dead because He left it? No, Baba is ever alive, for He transcends both life and death. He who loves Him once whole heartedly gets response from Him at any time and at anyplace."

    If Sai permits I shall narrate the Sai Seva I was made to render all these 25 years in due course.

  6. We were having a comfortable life after my marriage. Except for my husband's short temper everything was going normal. After some time it also got reduced by baba's grace. I did a mistake in that joy period. I believed a relative lady and gave huge money which was our hard earned money for 2 years for a nominal interest. I am not able to believe that I believed her so much to give such a huge money.This is my first time to give money to others. Since she was our close relative and we know her from our childhood, and they have huge properties I had no doubts in getting the money back. But ll of a sudden we came to know so many things which she hided to her mother and her own bothers etc., when we asked her back our money, she kept on postponing the dates. My husband got his short temper back and he is keeping lot of pressure on me she is my relative from our parents side. I agree with his tension because it is not a small amount. We(me and my parents) atleast have a hope that money will come back since it is a hard earned money and we know her from past. But my husband didn't know her from long and he was shocked to see her lieing so many times. We have a promisory note and cheques given by her, but afraid of going around courts to get this settled. Now we are in debts and paying interest every month from our pocket since we bought a site. Now I am afraid of this debts and house construction. Baba you are my saviour every time. You used to solve our problems though I committed a mistake. It is my mistake to believe such a cunning lady. We know that she is having properties, but unable to get the money. Baba its my mistake that I did't ask you before giving to her. Please suggest us a way to get back our money. You are the only source to change her mind and give back our money. Baba more than tension of loosing money I am worried about my husband's tension. He is going to work in this tension and driving in this tension. Please teach her a lesson and get back our money soon. Please she is showing night mares to us and we are not able to sleep. Baba I agree I was keen on interest money, that is a blunder I can say. Now on I am keeping a promise that with out asking you I will not do any thing. I am sorry for not remembering one experience in Satcharithra, that one devotee asked to invest in one business by writing a letter. I would have asked in this website whether to give money to her or not, then surely I believe you would have given a correct answer to me. But now everything has gone wrong. She is not lifting the calls and she is using bad words to us. she has grown up in our house for some time, with that belief I believed her blindly. Baba please save us, please save my family from this disaster. I have surrendered completely to you. Whatever you have decided, please get back that money soon. I am not able to bare this tension and pressure for so long. Please show me a correct way to get back our money.

    • Jai Sai Ram. Plz do pranayam of Sai satchritra again n again. U ll get mental peace n surely baba ll solve ur prob. Plz do it. If u can keep fast u can do this. But Sai satcharitra ll solve ur prob n u ll b tension free. Jai Sai Ram

    • Do not worry dear devotee baba is there and sure he will help you…. My mom did the same error and after sometime money came back….. Om Sai Ram !!!!

  16. 1st Devotee,

    I had really sudden urge to advice you on this aspect.I have seen so many people crying and also taking hard steps to meet/marry their partner. Regarding your 2nd prayer (for job) saibaba replied soon but at the same time for 1st prayer (to get united to ur partner) response is getting delayed,may be for some good reasons. Baba knows our destiny but not we so please ALLOW him to take right decisions for you,STOP pressurizing him. I am telling with my own experience that "just ask baba to do whatever is best for you AND ACCEPT it from ur heart". I have seen my friends,cousins taking drastic steps,eloping,suicide attempt to get married to loved one but the same people after few years start cursing saibaba for their marriage.They keep saying that if saibaba knew future then why did he allow their marriage to happen :-). Most of the time we may think some job,people right for us but later it might not proved to be right so for now "leave it and go with the flow of life".
    please take my advice in positive way.

    Regards
    Preet

  18. Sai baba,
