Shirdi Sai Baba Miracles and Leela in this Post:

Always Bless Us All

Anonymous Sai Devotee from UK says: I live in U.K. Since last 14 years. I came to know of Sai Baba in 1995. My son is Baba’s blessing. I was first introduced to Baba by my friend, now husband in 1995. We went to Shirdi and the peace I felt in Samadhi Mandir, I have never felt it again. We have faced lots and lots of ups and down in life, but Baba has always been there for me. I don’t know what experience to share as everyday He is with me and blesses me with whatever comes along.

I used to read Satcharitra and fast on Thursday regularly but stopped all this few years back due to daily busy life. I would still ask Baba about many important decisions by casting chits, but I had stopped reading Satcharitra. I said to Baba that whenever I read, I am thinking something else so why read for the sake of it, so I won’t read it. But last week, I was submitting some very important papers and did some really silly mistake which could cost me my career. I didn’t think about it at that time, but later I was and am so worried. I don’t know how I could do such ridiculous mistake, which is small but if noticed by other officials could get me in big trouble. I then started reading Satcharitra and first time after so many years, I read it so faithfully, with full concentration, understanding each bit and even longing to go to Shirdi soon. I lived every moment of incidences described in Satcharitra and it was wonderful. I pray to Baba to please get me out of this mistake this time, after that whatever is the end result of that submission would be His wish. I sincerely pray Him to save me, He knows I don’t mean any harm to anybody and nor I am dishonest. I don’t know how I could do such a mistake. Now thinking back, I think it’s Baba’s plan for me to do such mistake so I would read Satcharitra and come out of worldly pleasures and gossips. I pray Him to save me and I know He will bless me and forgive me.


Few experiences to share: I came out of my parents’ house against my parents’ wishes to get married to my husband. I traveled in flight to Hyderabad, and when the flight was landing, the passenger next to me, tried to talk to me, but I avoided him as I was very scared. He then opened his wallet and showed me Sai Baba’s photo and said he will always be with you. Later, I used to attend Baba’s arti every Thursday in the temple after marriage, Baba helped us to move abroad, gave us jobs, and never gave us difficulties with money. One of us always had a job. We did have lots of struggle with career, relationship, house but Baba was always with us. For so many things, I had no support from Husband, only his criticism and opposition, but Baba gave me strength to carry on and is my supporter. He made everything possible and always was blessing us. Baba unexpectedly gave my husband a very good job when he was struggling. I prayed Baba for a child, as I was struggling for a child even 10 years after our marriage. He gave me a beautiful son, saved me from delivery complications, as it was prolonged labour, and could have had worst outcome. But Baba gave me normal delivery and saved me and my son.

Another incident, we went to Shirdi with my 6 month old son. When we reached Samadhi Mandir, the priest asked my husband to pass my son to him. He kept my son at Baba’s feet. Then as We Turned to go walk out, a man asked me to turn and look at Baba again, which I did. Then again I turned and started walking out, then another man who was security person present there said- do darshan again, see Baba to Your heart’s content. So I turned again, bowed to Baba and walked out. I didn’t think much of these people asking me to do darshan again and again at that time, but now I know it was Baba asking me to take His darshan as I have been trying to go to Shirdi for last 7 years, but I have not managed to. I and my husband were discussing how much money it costs for whole Shirdi trip and it is probably worth giving that money to a needy rather than going to Shirdi. So Baba heard it and since then I am waiting for Baba to call me to Shirdi.

Few years back, I lost a baby in early pregnancy, but again, I continued casting chits and always followed His advice. But was not able to read Satcharitra or do fasting. Baba has always shown the best outcome whenever I followed the answer in His chits. We recently went to a very remote place in non English speaking country for water treatment for my son’s eczema. My husband was not willing for us to go. But I forced all to go. I prayed to Baba and due to Baba’s mercy, the stay was brilliant and my son’s eczema- which he had quite severe since birth, is almost gone. I felt that Baba arranged everything for us and took care of us- I feel Baba took us in palki to that place, as it was such smooth stay-much more than I could have imagined. Baba, You have always blessed me, my family. I pray You that please be with all of us, shower Your mercy and forgive for our mistakes. What would I do without You? Please fulfil my wish to come to Shirdi, stay there and be able to attend every arti in Your Mandir. Save me from this mistake which I did last week, and help me to read Your stories with full faith. Baba, be with me always. Om Sai Ram.

Sai Responds

Anonymous Sai Devotee from US says: Pranams at the lotus feet of my Gurus and Gods, Shirdi Sai and Sathya Sai. My sincere thanks to Hetalji for this beautiful service, which sustains faith and motivation during times of difficulty and hopelessness. I will present two recent experiences which shows that Baba always responds to heartfelt calls of help. Sometimes, the response is immediate and tangible, sometimes not so discernible, but be sure that Baba always listens.

My only refuge is Shirdi Baba. I would not have survived if Baba had not been with me. Challenges have been many and frequent but Baba has made His presence known at all times. The absolute bliss that one experiences when Baba responds to the simplest of requests is indescribable. Every time I face a difficult situation, the very base human that I am, I get caught up in the frenzy of the situation and subject myself to much stress and fear. I also pray constantly to Baba but I still am not able to surrender completely to Baba and allow Him to handle my life the way He deems fit. So, in my ignorance, I experience a lot of pain and feel that right now, I am in the throes of depression. I will go to the doctor but I pray that Baba takes care of me and brings back the sense of joy that I have lost.

Last week, for my younger son who works in a consulting firm, was the last week on the current project. He found out that the project may be extended for a few more weeks but his manager told him that he should now look for other projects. He was disappointed that another analyst was extended but not him. He had worked for several months on the project and is extremely hardworking and sincere. He’s had many challenges in the past year and my prayers to Baba have been for him continuously. On Thursday, the 9th of February, on Baba’s day, the partner on the project who was present for a meeting, told him in the afternoon that he would continue to work on the project and not the other analyst. How could that have happened without Baba’s intervention in the background! Thank You Sai for taking care of my son. Please guide my two sons in their lives.

My older son is in the process of buying an apartment. Please bless his choice of home Sai. We are also praying that he marries his girlfriend this year. On the same Thursday, my younger son was to return from his project site. We were having a major snow storm and all schools in the city were closed. Snow was coming down intensely at three inches per hour. I was sure that my son’s flight in the evening would be cancelled. But somewhere, I was sure that Sai would bring him home that night. There was an accumulation of 8-10inches of snow and about sixteen hundred flights in the city’s two airports had been cancelled during the day. Look at the wonderful miracle now! By 4-5pm, it stopped snowing completely. My son’s flight left absolutely on time at 5:50pm that evening and by 9:45pm, it landed at the airport. The flight is rarely on time. This was an incredible occurrence on a day with a severe snow storm. My husband is currently in India, to be with my parents because my father was having a surgery. (I will relate that experience in another post). I didn’t think I could go to the airport but when I left, the roads were clear and clean and I came to the airport much earlier than I thought. At every step, Sai was with us, clearing the way, and taking care of us. Thank You Baba. Lots of challenges remain and I pray to Baba to be with us and guide us always. Please bless everyone Sai. Be with all humanity. Sai Ram.

Sai Maa’s Auspicious Appearances In My Vision

Sai Devotee Aiswarya Mahapatra from India says: Sai devotees, We may fall short of words while describing the divinity and efficacy of this blog in connecting us with our beloved Sai Maa. Though I have a lot to share but in this post I would share how Sai Maa directly talks to me. You may be astonished as I am too. So hold on. Here I go.

You all may agree that each one of us have unique ways to feel Saimaa’s presence. I am no exception to that. I usually imagine Saimaa in my vision- Saimaa sitting in Dwarkamaayi, looking lovingly at me, listening carefully to all my worries, fears, and anguishes. To my every cry to Sainath, He replies that “Don’t worry, no matter what, I am always with you.” All these used to take place in my vision. That was no dream. My analytical mind sometimes comprehends these visions and justifies that it’s me, myself who is framing questions, followed by assurances on behalf of Saimaa. All this is an illusion. But my faith sternly states the visions as divine and testimony to Saimaa’s direct communication with me. Following 2 incidents gave evidence to my faith:-

Experience 1- On the new year eve of 2017, I prayed Saimaa to wish me a blissful year ahead. Suddenly in my vision Saimaa appeared and blessed me saying-“Naya saal mubarakho” and “Khush Raho”. To my utter surprise when I opened this blog in the evening, I found images of Saimaa wishing new year to devotees and blessing them success ahead. I was happy with the feeling of Saimaa wishing me and hence fulfilling the wish I made earlier. As I scrolled down, a particular image said-Naya Saal Mubarakho And Khush Raho. I was dumbstruck. I was unable to conclude whether my vision was just a coincidence of words or was it Saimaa talking to me in real through my visions.

Experience 2- On 9th Feb (Thursday), I was sharing my fears and self-doubts with Saimaa regarding my UPSC exam. In my vision, He was lovingly looking at me and hearing me patiently giving expressions to pacify me. Suddenly He broke the silence and said-“Don’t worry. Today you will have darshan of Akkalkot Swami”. I started wondering how. As soon as I opened the post of 9th Feb, it had an image of Akkalkot Swami. I got goose bumps. At very rarest are images of other Sadgurus posted on this blog. My joys knew no bounds. My faith emerged victorious over my sceptical mind. My visions were no illusions, but were a testimony to my faith. I felt blessed and privileged to directly communicate with Sai Maa and seek His assurances, guidance and infinite love. May Sai Maa continue to bestow on all of us the strength, purity and love to carry Him in our hearts and hence seek Him when and wherever we pray. I wish my experience may emanate faith (Shraddha) in some hearts. If so, I would feel privileged and Thank You for bearing with my lengthy post and going through it with patience (Saburi). Jai Sairam!

Our Baba’s Miracle

Anonymous Sai Devotee from India says: I consider myself as Baba’s small devotee from India. Baba pranams to Your lotus feet Baba. Thanks for the admin who is maintaining such a wonderful blog. May Baba bless you for your wonderful work. I would like to narrate my experience with all Sai Baba devotees here. I am in a relationship since 5 years and for 2 years everything went smoothly and later started misunderstandings and after letting our parents know about our relation they didn’t accept as we both are from different castes. This was the tough time in which I was and still going through. I was missing him badly and was doing Satcharitra parayan and completed it successfully and during this tough period I was searching for Baba’s answers in Sai Baba question and answers app. I got an answer like donate food. Immediately after I was done with my Satcharitra parayan I went to Baba’s temple and donated food.

Last night I was crying at Baba’s idol to save my relation and bring him back to me. Baba heard my prayers and today he messaged me and again had a small fight. Later in the night I messaged him that I was missing him badly and to my surprise he said that he will come and meet me one day as he have something important to discuss. I promised Baba that if he would talk to me I would write my experience here. So as promised I am writing down it here. Baba I don’t know what He will talk to me but please make that conversation positive, please Baba. I am tensed and have left everything to You as I have surrendered to Your lotus feet. Baba, please bless all Your devotees and fulfil their wishes. Om Sai Ram.

The Ultimate Saviour- Our Baba

Sai Devotee Vidya from India says: Pranams to all devotees here. I am a small devotee of the Lord from Bangalore. This is my sixth experience being published here. This experience may seem vague to some people, but very important for me.

I am studying in final year dental course. This is the year in which a lot of technical and hand skills are required in treatment of patients. But unfortunately I am not very good at it, which makes me lag behind in the works. The processing of complete denture is very complicated but I somehow managed to get through it. But partial denture was a disaster from my hands. Please do something Baba and set everything right. May the patients feel happy and satisfied and stay healthy with the dentures. I am also undergoing other tensions like attendance shortage in college and my health related issues like PCOD. Family problems are no where getting better which is becoming troublesome to my studies. Clearing 8 subjects in one go is very important for me which is not possible unless Baba showers His blessings on me and does miracles. My family is tearing into pieces Baba, and I am not able to do anything. Please give me strength to hold on to all the pieces and make it a complete happy family like before. Forgive my mistakes and wavering devotion my mind towards You. I am a stupid kid Baba, please take care of Your kid. Everything is in Your hands Baba, please hold my hands steady and never let me go. Please fulfil the wishes of people devoting their souls to You. Sri Satchidhanandha Sadguru Sainath Maharaj Ki Jai! Bow to Sri Sai Peace be to all.

Baba Made Me Victorious

Anonymous Sai Devotee from India says: Om Sai Ram to all the cutest children of Baba. I am a tiny child of Baba. I will share one of the most incredible leelas of Baba.

I decided to participate in the fest that was to take place after 15days. I convinced my friends that we will participate in group and I will handle everything. It was already getting difficult for me to handle it as we work in office and taking out time is a tough task but due to Baba’s blessings it was going well. But suddenly my mom fell seriously ill and I was not in a normal state of mind and could not give time to practice. I begged Saima to cure my mother and help us to give our best and trust me Saima was there at each point of time handling everything. Finally on the day of performance my mother’s health was a bit better and I could reach there. We realised that others had put more money and time into it and it was damn hard for us to win but still Baba was there with us. In between our performance power got off and it was a huge set back. We had to perform again. All were losing hope but see the greatness of King Sai He made us secure 3rd rank in the competition. No words are enough to thank Him. Baba bears the pain of His children. When Thank You Saima for everything. Please forgive us and guide us Maa. Love You. Om Sai Ram.
