Shirdi Sai Baba Miracles and Leela in this Post:

Baba’s Blessings

Anonymous Devotee from USA says: Thank you Hetal ji and team for doing this wonderful work by publishing devotee’s experiences. It really strengthens our faith on Baba. This is my third experience in this portal. Currently I am living in USA. I will share few of my experiences one by one here. First experience is my marriage was an arranged marriage. I was working in a different city and my husband met me there after the proposal came through family and he immediately said yes, I was not mentally ready for marriage that time, but without thinking much I too said yes, though I had other match options in terms family status and other stability what usually looked upon in an arranged marriage, I agreed to this proposal. Both of us were not talking much on phone as he joined a new job and spent lot of time at work, on the other end I was little shy to talk much. After one and half month we got married. Here came all the problems. We had lot of mutual adjustment issues and we had many fights. I lost my mental peace and used to cry always. Since I am the only daughter, my parents were also very stressed because of my situation. I used to curse myself why did I have married this early without a little longer courtship. I also took transfer to my husband’s city after my marriage. I was assigned a new project at work, though initially everything was smooth at work but later on several problems came.

Like they say when bad things have to happen, it happens from all direction. I was the victim of office politics and misunderstood by all. Neither I was happy in my marital life nor at work place. I was under tremendous stress and depression. My mother is an ardent deportee of Baba. Though I knew Baba since long but I never strongly worshipped Him. While I was going through all these stress my mother gave me Baba’s Photo. I put the Photo in my Pooja Mandir and started doing five Thursday Vrat. I read Sai Satcharitra every day and on Thursdays I used to go to Baba’s temple without fail. Believe me during that time everything started to get better in my life. I remember one morning around 5 am Sai came in my dream and told me to worship Lord Khandoba. That time I never heard of Khandoba and thought it could be another form of lord Vishnu. Probably in another dream I saw Khandoba and lord Shiva both are same. The same day I Google and saw an identical photo of lord Khandoba which I saw in my dream. I was clear about my dream and who is Khandoba when I reached the chapter of Sai Satcharitra where there is reference to Khandoba. Gradually I started to understand my husband and vice versa. My work environment was too got changed and I moved to a different project and performed really well. I got promoted at work which I didn’t expect that time. Now I believe everything happens for a cause and my husband is the best thing that my parents chose and I am leading a wonderful marital life by Baba’s grace. Many of us have undergone similar situations like me, trust Sai all the troubles will vanish.

Coming to the second experience myself and my husband used to work in different cities in USA for different organizations. For some reason, I was very stressed and could not work well, lost confidence and was very depressed. I thought of quitting my job and staying at home for some time. When I told my husband the same over phone he said not to quit and change the project as getting another job is always not that easy in USA. I asked my manager to transfer me to my husband’s location or else a better place with more opportunities where my husband can be relocated too. After several days my transfer process got approved and I was assigned a new project. The kind of work I had to do in that project was not my technical expertise and moreover I was not comfortable with team dynamics there. I decided to quit from my current organization and started searching jobs in my forte area. I got several calls for interview and immediately got job offer with good salary and better location. I accepted that job offer and resigned from my current employer and relocated to new place. Now the situation changed for my husband and he has to ask his manager to transfer for to my new location, luckily they found a project for him. The weekend, he was supposed to travel to our new location, Client put on hold for the project and his travel got cancelled. It was a Thursday. Meanwhile I booked a two bed room house in an expensive area near to my office and started furnishing it assuming we both will live together. After hearing the news of my husband’s project cancellation I was very sad and since it was almost year end and due to freezing period less project work will be there and it will take another couple of months more for him to join me. Till then I have to stay alone and bear the rent since the house lease couldn’t be cancelled. I started praying Baba desperately and started doing Satcharitra Parayan for 7 days. The same day I opened this site and read one of the devotee’s experiences where it stated how she was reunited with her husband in USA after long by Baba’s grace. I felt it was kind of Baba’s message to me don’t worry everything will be all right. On my fourth day of Parayan my husband called me and told me again the client created that requirement and he has to travel that weekend. It was like a miracle and by Baba’s blessings and he joined his new project and we are together after long.

Now the third experience, I had a planned C- section and during my delivery operation I prayed to Baba in OT. I don’t know what happened all of a sudden I became very calm during the operation. I felt Baba was standing near me in His usual saffron colour robe, smiling and patting my head. The operation was smooth, though my baby had a little initial breathing problem but by Baba’s grace he became stable and healthy. Another experience was I had stomach ache and severe gas problems and doctor recommended for sonography. In sonography, radiologists insert a thick tube into stomach through mouth which is very painful till the removal of the tube from mouth. When they started to insert that device I felt lot of pain, the medical staffs were trying to sooth me. I don’t know in between what happened, as I could not see, I felt someone was holding my hand very soothingly, and the pain started to ease away. I thought it could be my husband, hearing my cry he might have come inside and hold my hand. When my experiment got over and I realized one of the medical staffs with a very pleasant smile and composed face was holding my hand throughout the experiment. I have a strong belief he was none other than Baba Himself. Baba has always shown His presence whenever we needed Him. I can’t thank Him more or thank will be mere word for His miracles in our lives. He has been with us through out and showing the right tracks whenever we lost track. I would like to pray to Him, I want to focus more at my new work, studies and more responsible in everything I do which I lack at this moment. With His mercy anything can be possible, please forgive me for all my wrong deeds and bless us in achieving our goals. I will stop here and will share more experiences in other posts. Om Sai, Bless all.

How Sri Sai Ram Entered My Life, Gave Me Love And Made Me Have Faith In Him

Anonymous Devotee from India says: Hello All, I am one of the small devotee of one and only Sai Baba [My current love]. I would like to share my experience here. I was in relationship with a guy [Who is a devotee of Baba as well and had been to Shirdi to pray for me to agree to his proposal] And yes it did happen, I agreed to his proposal and 4 years just passed by. During these 4 years, I started worshipping Sai Baba, [Usually i rarely go to any Temples], but once i was in relationship, I started going to Sai Baba Temples every Thursday every prayer of mine I had Baba in mind asking rather begging Him to give this guy for life long, I felt he is the perfect match for me and thought that he is Sai Baba’s gift to me. I went into this relationship only when my guy promised that he would convince everyone in my family because we were belonging to same native but different Caste and in my family there is not even an example of inter caste marriages and my father is a heart patient, mother is very emotional and I have a younger sister who is still studying and I have many people in family like uncles aunts who interfere in every small thing. My father is a person who has utmost respect in his native, society and family, so due to this he did not want any person to point a finger to his daughters with this love and all.

Though I knew that this is a tight situation, I knew that this relationship does not go until marriage, the guy kept on giving me hopes that nothing would happen, if it does also, he would talk to my parents and convince them. If i have to tell about the guy, he is a gem of a person who is matured enough and I trusted him completely and used to get all positive thoughts and he has semi-settled in his life, so though he could somehow convince my parents and I could get married to him with Sai Baba’s grace. But unfortunately a day came, when we had completed 4 years of relationship, a problem started from his Family, there were forcing him to get married to a girl of their own caste, his mother cried in front of him, his aunts, his dad were against this relation and changed his mind completely. A guy who was ready to go against his and my family, get registered to me, gave all kind of hopes to me had changed drastically. No calls no message, full of ignorance, which an unexpected behaviour from his side, he has never been like this. It’s been 3 months, I was shattered in life, since i have always been unlucky in many aspects, i do not get things what I like, but thankfully I have Shirdi Sai Baba with me, I pray Him every day, every hour. He is the one who have given me hope to live my life for myself and my parents. In this situation, He gave me good set of friends around, but somewhere still I feel down why did it even happen to me, why did the guy leave this relation as soon as his parents said.

I had made my parents cry when I told about our relation, they literally requested me to quit due to caste issue, but i was stubborn and went on with the relation. The guy was always ready to speak to my dad and convince, but i was delaying that, but finally he failed to convince his parents and backed out. He didn’t even think what a girl can go through, Everyday i cry in front of Baba. I wanted to read Sai Satcharitra book, but i did not have. I had a doubt that my mother has it but did not want to ask her, because if I ask, she will know I will read it for this relation sake, so i was asking Baba shall i read from website but in my heart i always felt i should have a book. So this miracle happened to me one Sunday evening, all of a sudden I get a message on Whatsapp from my friend’s friend saying she has done Sai Satcharitra Vrat and she wants to distribute one copy to me, that day was a miracle for me. How soon Sai Baba responded to my wish, there was no bound for my happiness. I need to start with the book and aiming to finish within 7 days. I have put all my problems to His feet, I strongly believe, He is there with me in every step. I had been Shirdi with the guy i fell in love with along with my other friends and that was my first visit. Due to these problems currently what i am facing through along with small health issues of mine, I badly want to go to Shirdi and I know Baba is calling me there. I am planning to go in Feb. Let all blessings along with Baba be there with me and my family. Baba really does miracles, believe Him. My parents are also devotees of Baba, they might be praying to get me out of this relation, but they are not aware the guy himself left me in the mid of nowhere. I have decided just to follow the way Baba is showing me. Om Sai Ram Om Sai Samarth. Attached is picture of my Sai Baba [My colleague got this for me at the right time from Shirdi]

Conversion From Sceptic To Firm Believer

Anonymous Devotee from India says: Om Sri Sainathaya Namaha. I am a PhD student in one of Indians most prestigious institutions. It is human nature to forget God and take credit for our self when everything goes smoothly but in the times of distress or need we cry out for God’s help. I was one such self absorbed creature. Throughout my life I have appealed to God in my times of need. I have been blessed to have most of my major prayers answered. God has blessed me with most things that people generally pray for, Good health, sound mind, decent income in the form of my PhD stipend. I am eternally indebted to You my Lord. Now my major problem is my personal life. I want to get settled with my boyfriend. I started praying to God, mostly Shiv ji, with devotion around September 2014. I also started observing Monday fasts around this time. God granted more than i could have wished for. In the months of April-May 2015, me and my boyfriend had to undergo an internship. We thought we would get placed in different locations and would have to be away from each other for two months. But by Gods grace, both of us got internships in the same city. It was a delightful and extremely smooth experience. I started praying to Sai Baba when some issues started creeping into my relationship. I prayed that if these issues got resolved, I would observe 9 Thursdays fast and Lo, those issues got resolved very soon.

I started 9 Thursdays Vrat but even as I was doing this Vrat, I was not surrendering completely at Sai Baba’s Feet. I treated it as a barter system where Baba would grant my wishes because i would observe the 9 Thursdays Vrat. As if Baba was gaining anything by my fasts! I was doing fasts and reading Katha mechanically. In spite of this, Sai Baba was always with me. One such incident was when my boyfriend got severe stomach pain. He was considering travelling 80 Kms to visit his family doctor. He wanted to avoid travelling so much and asked me to pray for him. I prayed that if his stomach pain disappears by the next day, I would put 108Rs in Sai Baba’s Hundi and Sai Baba proved His presence once again, The next day when my boyfriend woke up there was no more pain. Though I put 108 Rupees in Sai Baba’s Hundi I still did not understand His greatness. It was only yesterday, that is on my 6th Thursday of 9 Thursdays Vrat that I started feeling strongly that Baba is with me. I could feel His presence all around me. Due to some unexplainable reason I started getting pulled towards Baba. I started feeling guilty for my attitude towards Sai Baba. I started reading Sai Satcharitra from yesterday itself. I intend to do Saptah Parayan. I feel myself slowly being immersed in His ocean of love. I have surrendered myself totally to Him. Dear Sai Baba, You know the problems which I am facing. The odds are insurmountable and it would indeed be a undeniably stupendous miracle if my wish was to be granted. Nothing can make me happier. Please see if You can. I will definitely share my experiences here as soon as something concrete happens. I love You Sai. Please don’t leave me. Om Shri Sainathaya Namaha.

Baba-Our Dear Father

Anonymous Devotee from UK says: Dear Hetal ji. Jai Sai Ram. I wish to thank you and all the devotees across the world who are doing the kind service of spreading the name our Baba. Baba is very kind. He is our true creator and protector. He is always with His children and would do anything to protect them. He has showered His Kripa on me always and I pray that He blesses all His children. I had promised that I will surely share these miracles with everyone. One day while working in the kitchen, I was taking the washed dishes out of the dish washer. During that I did not realise that there was a big knife between the dishes. While taking out the dishes the knife made a very deep cut on my right hand. Mountains of blood was coming out of hand and I got scared to bits that I would surely need stitches. As I have a young son and it was Christmas eve I was quite apprehensive to get stitches as I knew that I would struggle to look after my son with stitches and also a lot of time will be spent at emergency.

Then I called the real doctor Baba. I sincerely prayed to Baba that please help me and bless me that the doctor says that I do not need stitches. While crying and praying to Baba, I applied Udi on my finger and kept on praying to Baba. Wonders of wonders the blood stopped coming out and I was bit relieved that now probably I would not need stitches. Later my husband took me to his friend’s wife who is a doctor and she told me that you are lucky as you would not need any stitches now and the cut will be cured on its own. I thanked Baba lots and lots of saving me. Baba came running when I called Him and He could not see His daughter in pain. I love You Baba. Love You lots.

One more experience is that one day while sitting on the sofa I did not realise that my ring slipped from my finger and got stuck deep in the sofa from where it was impossible to take it out. My husband tried all means to take it out but no success. I was worried as to how the ring will be out. I prayed to Baba and asked for His help to show me a way to take out the ring. 1 hour passed and nothing happened. Then I took Baba’s Name and put my hand in the tight space in the sofa. I was having lot of pain as my hand was squashed and I took Baba’s Name loudly and I realised that my finger got hold of the ring and I was finally able to take it out. Baba’s Name again did wonders. Thanks Baba for showing me Your presence always. I have one more wish and If Baba wishes I will soon share that experience too. Baba is very kind. He always and always loves us no matter what. All He needs is our unconditional love and devotion. Such are His kind Leelas. I have dedicated this life to Baba and Baba only. I am Baba’s and Baba is mine. Love You Baba. Jai Sai Ram Baba bless all.

Miracle Of My Sai To Make Me Feel His Exclusive Presence

Anonymous Devotee from India says: Jai Sai Ram to all the devotees, Mere Sai Ki Jai ho, Dear Hetal ji and team a big Thank you to you for this platform, I think me posting this miracle is one of my Sai’s Leela, I am a small devotee of My Sai Deva since my childhood, I have experienced His numerous miracles in my life, had it not been my Deva I would have been trapped in many difficult and horrible situations in my life, Thank You my Sai Deva! Coming to my experience, I have developed a practice of having Sai’s Live Darshan online every day, throughout the day till night time my Deva’s live Darshan is on my laptop. Sai’s Live Darshan is available from Morning 4 to Night 11. Post that if you login it simply shows video loss message. However today at night the Darshan screen was on pause at around 1.15 am and I was just praying to the screen seeing my Sai’s Paused picture thinking that if I refresh my screen it will go blank as the online live Darshan time has passed, so I prayed to my Sai’s Picture on the screen and also requested Him, Sai please if possible once give me Your Darshan or presence.

Without realising that my Deva was listening, the miracle happens and when I clicked the play icon on my screen the Sai video “Live” gets on by itself and you won’t believe it’s still on while I am typing this. Tonight the whole time this video is on with me that too “Live” Darshan of Deva exclusively for me as if Deva has recorded it for me, to test my Deva I also logged in for “Live” Darshan URL from other fresh window on my laptop thinking today must be some special day so Darshan is still on may be, but that screen as usual displays the message “Video loss” as its time out, but on the first window screen of my laptop, the “Live” Darshan of my Deva is still on. Today being a Thursday, it’s a big blessing of my Sai for me. It’s like an exclusive Darshan for me type of feeling. I am generally very lazy and there are lots of miracles I could post of my Sai, but never did that, However this experience just made me post this miracle immediately, as though it’s my Sai’s wish and a message to all those who feel that Sai does not listen to their hearts. My friends and all Sai devotees our Sai listens to everything we think and feel, He just needs our true love, so just love Him and feel His beautiful miracles all around you. I Love You Sai, Please bless all. Om Sai Ram!

Got Pregnant After 5 Years Of Marriage With Baba’s Blessings

Anonymous Devotee from US says: I have been married for 5 years and did not get pregnant after so many treatments. From 6 months after marriage i had been taking treatment to get pregnant but it just never happened. I met multiple doctors. I spent Lakhs of rupees but all in vain. So i stopped taking treatment in 2013. A year and a half back i heard about Baba’s miracles through a few friends who advised me to take the 9 weeks Vrat. I started the Vrat for my pregnancy but at that point in time i had faced a lot of other problems. Every time i prayed those problems came as priority in my prayers without my control. Baba solved all those problems for me. Later in the beginning of 2015, i started treatment but my body never responded to anything. So again i took a break. I don’t really know why i did not get the thought of the 9 weeks Vrat. But when i went back for my treatment after a break Baba gave me the thought of the 9 weeks Vrat. I followed the Vrat sincerely and took my treatment. The Vrat ended and the very next week i got a positive pregnancy test. I prayed to Baba with all my heart that me and my baby should be healthy and now i have completed 3 months without any problem. This wouldn’t have been possible without the blessings of Shri Sai Baba. Om Sai Ram.
