Shirdi Baba’s Presence In My Life – Anonymous Sai Devotee

Anonymous Devotee from USA says: My heartfelt wishes to this site’s Administrator and Editor as it shares each and every person’s experience with Sai in their life. To say about myself, I am currently working and residing at USA. I came to USA for my Masters. I am not a spiritual person but I am sure my experience will make each one of us associate a sequence of events related in their life. I believe more than logical analyzing of a supreme existence, your inner experience and connectivity with it brings more meaning to the events we come across in this life. I am sure Sai Baba made me to write this. I am happy to share my first most waited experience that I prayed I will share it here. I am sorry if my post is too long. I just wished as a part of my prayer to share it completely with all of you.

Year 2013 was most crucial year for me to get a job. Right after my course completion I moved to my uncle place for stay to start my job search. Until January end, I was surrounded by people and celebrations. It was by Jan end I got serious that I should start job search immediately. There were multiple personal pressures which I will share in my other post if things go on well. I had a very strong wish that I should get my job by myself without any one’s reference or help. I think people who were graduate students like me in USA will exactly know my situation. Getting a job in your same stream without any manipulation after masters is a very tough thing. I didn’t know anything and started all the work from scratch. I started my 9 weeks Sai Nav Guruvar Pooja sometime around Jan 3rd week. All the events I am going to share took place from January end to April and I have almost undergone every day and night crying.

Within few days since I started Pooja, I got a call from recruiter saying that they wanted to submit my resume to one of the top Pharmacy company. That time I was over joyous, I didn’t know there is much more steps involved and that only client interview & acceptance are important. Somehow I dreamt personally about this top company which became my dream company. After my submission to that recruiter company I did not receive any further calls. I left that and started my job search differently. This time I got a face on interview with a recruiter. I attended it and only after meeting them I came to know that the position is for a very small size lab and I will be one among three people of the total people involved in that lab. Though I was happy that I at least got a call, personally I felt weak, am I supposed to get just this kind of opportunity? I prayed Baba “I don’t have heart to say that I don’t like this opportunity, but I am not completely happy either. Just take care of everything”.

Two days later I received email from that recruiter that I was not selected for that position. I had mixture of emotions. Days passed and I continued my Vrat. I tried changing my job search. This time I wished that “It’s enough of making me long for useless recruiter calls. Please let me get at least one direct hire company call”. I still remember, usually I do Pooja in morning and have my food. But that day I cried and was sitting without doing Pooja and I ate my food too. Sometime later in noon I checked my email as my regular part of work. Believe me my first phone interview call request from the director of a direct medium size company. I can’t express my feel seeing the sequence of events. Still I do not know if it’s a miracle or just a coincidence. I do not want wish to analyze it anytime in my life. Because some moments and emotions in life are really unexplainable. I had a phone interview the very next day. It looked like everything went on well. But I didn’t get any response from them later. More than 2 weeks passed, I was fed up. I constantly check question and answer site. Just like a kid, I try hitting it so many times and if I get a response relevant to my wish I will take that as an answer. I believe many of us would have done it. One of the answers was” you will get help from an unknown friend”. Whenever my uncle refers to some of his friends related to Job. I keep searching if he or she could be that helping person mentioned.

I came across 2 such persons. The last one was indeed the one who I was searching for! But I was feeling inside me, I should not get a deliberate job help from someone and no one should say at any point in my life that I got the job because of them. I wished I should get placed only through my hard work. Meanwhile we took a week time and He helped me completely to work on my resume. He mentioned “start applying and I will also refer you to my colleagues for other positions”. I started applying for positions. I submitted my resume the very next day – Thursday (April 4th 2013) to one of the recruiter for a position at the same dream company I mentioned in January. This time somehow I was pretty sure that I will get an interview call from the direct client as I have worked a lot on my resume and it’s an exact match for the job profile. I still remember I had multiple answers to my many questions that I got from my favourite question & answer site. Few of them are: “Things will be done in 8 days”, “a boy baby will be born and you will receive a letter and start your work at a big city” But multiple things were running in my mind.

One of my close friend had a due date same week. But I had spoken to her on Friday and she didn’t get any labour pain until that day. I just related it to my answers and I remained silent thinking maybe I should not relate things and get upset. However on Monday morning April 8th 2013 I received a call from recruiter that my resume is selected and the dream company wishes to set an interview with me! They asked me to choose dates on Tuesday or Thursday. My heart wanted to go for Thursday. I agreed for April 11th 2013. I still can’t express my feel I had when I got the email. I just went near Sai Baba – Pooja shelf. I called my mom and I cried. No one knows how much this means to me as I was in a very crucial stage. Later in the evening I spoke to my friend and she told me she had labour pain Friday night and was hospitalized. She delivered a beautiful boy baby on Saturday. I hope you would have understood what I think to say. That moment I could not think as a common person who thinks logically and leave it as a coincidence. More than believing Baba with full conscience, my attachment to Him started as a kid’s love to her mother or father. That unknown, untaught trust which develops unknowingly creates an internal bonding. I am sure each one of us will undergo the feel I came across at some stage in your life. That personal connectivity when you feel it, it is a bliss!

I remember I was so adamant that I will not post a reply to the experiences shared here and I wish to directly share my personal experience first. Few days before my interview I had read in this blog a similar experience that was shared. I have replied to that saying it’s almost similar and I am waiting for my turn! I had a thought I will post to narrate my whole experience when things go on well. But somehow I kept postponing after I joined at my work place and I took a year time to post this. I do not regret for that. Because sometimes we feel “I will do this if I get that”. I assume Sai Baba never expects us back, even the promises that we made to Him. Just enjoy your personal connectivity with Him. He is the Life I am living. I wish I can share with all of you in other post the most important part of my life

  11. You are not alone in this journey as I am also jobless and nothing is going my way.All I can say is that all my interviews whether phone or in person are getting fixed on Thursdays.However,after interview I do not get any call.I have been exhausted with my job serach,however,I have not given up but one thing is for sure that due to exhaustion I have stopped looking at jobs online on a regular basis and I am waiting for baba to do something for me.No matter whether I get a job or not I will never leave baba as I know what he has done for me in the past.It is not easy for me as I am alone in a foreign land and only waiting for good days to come.I do not know how distant those days are but one thing i can say for sure that they are approaching due to baba's grace.

  30. Hi Devotee,

    Very nice experience of establishing connectivity with Baba. May baba bless all the good souls here and guide them in their life paths.
    I am living in this materialistic world only because of Baba and request him for being the guiding force in each and every action of mine.

  36. Dear devotee!
    "I assume Sai Baba never expects us back, even the promises that we made to Him"—it appears you have never read Sai Satcharitra where in numerous incidents Baba MAKES the devotee fulfill his/her promises..eg. the two gentlemen from Goa who promised first salary if they got job and Appa Kulkarni who wanted to give Rs.10 as dakshina..
    Baba is very particular that one MUST keep one's promises and vows.

  37. Sai Deva my wife and child depending on me. I am not a bachelor to stay away from my family. Please Deva show mercy on me

    • Don't worry bhaiya Baba will unite you with your family and I know your pain…..will pray for you !!!! Baba pls unite them soon beg you Baba !!!!!

  38. Om sai ram sri sai ram help all of us. My husband is now confused regarding his job and financial problems. Please sai help us to recover from financial problem. Give him good health and reveal from stress. We all bow to ur feet.

  39. Truly a blessed experience

    Baba please take care of my wish. You know I am waiting for long time… Please help me.. I cannot take the pain I am going through any
    more. Please forgive me for all my past sins and bless me.

    OmSairam
    Bow to ShriSai peace be to all

  49. Dear Hetal ji, My concern about the posting the comment, even if I click "preview" the program by default goes to "publish" and my comment just gets vanished. This has happened several times. I have no clue how this happens. And in the next "comment box" it does give option to "notify me" which is not available when we send the initial comment . Well, and in that comment when sent it does show up in my gmail account because I had selected "notify me".
    It is rather annoying to type the same thoughts once already posted in the previous comment and once they get lost like this, it's hard to get the same wave of thoughts.
    I request to correct this flaw and ADD "notify me" button on the same page where one is writing a comment as a response after reading the post.
    Thanks for your wonderful site and support to all Sai Devotees to express and read Sai Leelaas.
    Jai Sai Ram
    **** this time also it happened the same thing,I clicked "preview" and the screen message said "publishing".
    I had copied my text and now pasting it again in this
    next comment window where I get the option of "notify me".
    So if my post comes twice here I might prove wrong in complaining and if shows up only once, than it seems you need to look in the the problem that I have explained.
    Jai Sai Ram

  50. Baba u know how iam suffering by them…plz look in my situation once and change them, let them realise their mistakes and should not do this mistakes from tomorrow…Plz bless me to be happy with my husband..

  51. Sai Samarth..be babas blessings with all the people in need
    Sai Brahma! Sai Vishnu! Sai Devomaheshwara! Sai Sakshaath
    ParBrahma! Tasmaya Sri Saiyann Maha
    Om Sai Ram

  52. Sai baba,

    Please help my family and parents in all aspects..Please help my parents in every thing their life….Please baba,help my husband to get a good job with good salary…Please baba always save my parents,my kids,my husband and me(all my family)…thanks baba for every thing…

    love you baba
    om sai namo namah

  55. I'm writing this with heavy pain in my heart. I have been waiting for baba's miracle for two years now. Baba surely knows what is the priority in my life now. I & my whole family are suffering badly with this problem.Something which i wish for is always happening in totally opposite way. I feel i
    'm so unlucky. I did sai vrat pooja twice and also did sai prayana multiple times. I don't know why baba is silent in my case. I could feel baba's presence on other things in my life, but the one i badly wanted is not happening yet. I always feel may be i had very bad karma in my past thats why i'm not getting what i wish for. But still after reading sai satchitra i reached baba's feet and i don't know why my suffering is not ending. I really don't know what i'm supposed to do.I even stopped eating my favorite food sacrificing as a token for the wish i ask for. I even prayed to baba to give me accidents/attack as i can't tolerate this pain anymore. But this wish also is not happening.Today is very important day which will turn my entire life. Till now, i waiting to see baba's miracle on me. I don't know if im so lucky that whatever i pray never happens.I request you, Kindly please pray for me to solve my problem.I'm feeling so depressed and dejected.Baba, please please do some miracle today. I have no one else other than you.

    • DEAR DEVOTEE U R STRONG BE STRONG LIKE THIS WHATEVER IS HAPPENING IS JUST BECAUSE BABA WASHING UR ALL WEAK POINTS AND MAKING U PERFECT FOR FUTURE,,,,,BABA WILL BESTOW HIS GRACE AT RIGHT TIME AND ULL UNDERSTAND HIS WHOLE LEELA,,,,,JUST TRUST SAIMAA…LOVE HIM AS U MUST BE DOING…..
