SAI NATHA FULFILLS THE PROMISE MADE TO HIS DEVOTEE

B.B.DEV is a devotee of SAI NATHA who lives in DAHAN. His mother made 25 vows to fulfill those vows she decided to organize all the ritual at the same time and invited 200 Brahmans to have lunch in the ritual function. DEV wrote a letter to SAI NATHA and invited him to attend the function. ZOGU told BABA about the letter and invitation then BABA said " They remembered  and invited me then how can i forget them. tell them that you , me and other person will attend the function". ZOGU replied with the letter.

Few days before the function, one man with Bengali dress,other one as saint and 3 rd person who collects donation money came to DEV. DEV told them to meet him after 2 months. They went away. At the function time DEV was busy with the works and at the same time the person with Bengali dress came again to DEV telling that I came to attend the function , two more persons are there with me. DEV invited them with pleasure. They ate and went away.

In the function time DEV thoughts revolved around SAI NATHA only. SAI NATHA nor JOGU didn't attend the function. He was disappointed and wrote a letter to SAI NATHA saying that he didn't fulfill the promise.

ZOGU received the letter and went near BABA and read the letter then BABA said " DEV is disappointed because I didn't fulfill the promise. I pity him, to fulfill the promise i don't care about my life also. when i came in Bengali dress he thought i came for donation money to clarify his doubt I also said I came with two more persons for lunch. when he cannot recognize me why should he invite me ?" DEV read the letter and felt happy.

DEVOTEE BEST COMPANION IS GOD

DADA SAHEB KAAPDKAR and his wife are devotees of SAI NATHA. Every day in afternoon DADA SAHEB wife used to bring lunch to Masjid exactly at 12:00. After SAI NATHA finishes with the lunch, she used to eat. One day she sat near BABA and started to massage his feet at that time BABA smiled happily and massaged her hands. So many people saw this and SHYAM said " Its very nice to see this, God and devotee are helping each other so nicely".

Its true! God  also worship  his devotees in the form of  blessings. In BHAGAVADGITA also it is mentioned  "who ever adores and worships me in different ways in the same way i ll bless them with happiness in all ways ". "KRISHNA"  mean " who ever worships him he ll worship them also" That is the reason why he is know as GREAT "SHRI KRISHNA PARAMATMA"  We hope our SHRI SAI KRISHNA blessings will be there on us always.

 EXPERIENCES OF CAPTAIN HAATE WITH SAINATHA

Captain Haate is devotee of SAI NATHA lives in BIKANER. One day in his sleep he got a dream that he offered curry made with bottle gourd and dakshin to SAI NATHA. Then he woke up and decided to offer them really to SAI NATHA. So he sent 12 rs money to his friend through money order and told him to cook curry and give remaining 10 rs as dakshin to BABA. His friend helped HAATE , he cooked the curry and took to Masjid. On that day BABA waited for the curry and  ate only bottle gourd curry. His friend wrote the above incident in the letter and posted. HAATE read the letter and felt happy.

One more time Captain HAATE felt that he should have sacred coin which is used by BABA. So he gave 1 rs to his friend who is going to SHIRIDI. His friend went to Masjid and prayed and gave the 1 rs given by HAATE to him. SAINATHA took the 1 rs , looked at the coin keenly and played with the coin and said " Give this to your friend along with the vibuthi and prasadam. I don't want this. Tell him to live peacefully and happily". His friend told the SAI NATHA words and gave the 1 rs to him. He felt happy.

DEVOTEES MUST HAVE PATIENCE

A person named HARI NAYAK SATE suffered so many difficulties, He came to SHIRIDI to take blessings of BABA. He did GURU CHARITRA PARYANAM within a week, next day BABA came in his dream and he was teaching the CHARITRA. He shared this incident with KAKA SAHEB. In Masjid KAKA SAHEB asked BABA regarding this dream and BABA replied " Tell him to read Paryanam one more time and he will be happy ". At this time HEMAD PANTH was there and he was massaging BABA feet and he thought in mind " HARI NAYAK did Paryanam within a week and BABA gave his darshan in his dream I m doing Paryanam since 40 yrs but he never gave darshan in my dream. He was in SHIRIDI for a week only and got BABA blessing and I m here and worshiping him since 7 yrs but he never blessed me" and felt bad.BABA sensed his thoughts and told HEMAD PANTH to meet SHYAM and spend with him for a while and sent him. HEMAD PANTH went to SHYAM and told him that BABA gave orders to meet him. SHYAM smiled and told " I have nothing to talk about. I know only SAI NATHA and his stories. If you have no objection I ll tell one story about BABA devotee who is a RADHA BHAI an old lady".

 RADHA BHAI a devotee of SAI NATHA who is  old lady came to SHIRIDI and thought in mind that she will not leave SHIRIDI unless BABA communicates an initiatory mantra to her. She started to do fasting also,  3 days passed. Since she is older she became weak due to fasting, BABA came to know this and brought her to Masjid and spoke 

" why are you so much determined? just listen my words carefully. I worshiped my SADDGURU for so many years but he never taught me mantras then how can I communicate a mantra to you? I always worshiped him only with meditation and in other ways with devotion and faith.  SADDGURU expects only two qualities from his disciples and they are 1.devotion 2. patience. We should worship our SADDGURU with so much devotion and we must have lot of patience to seek his blessings from him. We should not be in a hurry. Patience removes all sorrows and difficulties. we should have devotion and patience then only we ll get blessings from SADDGURU.I never asked nor expected from my SADDGURU. Don't expect any mantra from anyone and it is not necessary. Always concentrate on your SADDGURU in all your actions. You don't need any books or any other to learn Mantras. Just have faith and devotion and be patient."
RADHA BHAI changed her decision regarding this and left SHIRIDI. She worshiped BABA as her SADDGURU.  

SHYAM completed the story and HEMAD PANTH realized his mistake and thought " SADDGURU knows when and how to bless his devotees. We should have devotion with patience. we should never compare with others, if we do we can never feel happy." Mean while afternoon HARATI started and both of them went to Masjid. When he reached BABA called HEMAD PANTH and asked " what you spoke with SHYAM".HEMADPANTH told everything to BABA, HARATI was going on but both spoke without getting disturbed.and BABA spoke as below

WISDOM OF SAI NATHA
" My methods are unique. Remember this story you will learn a lot. worldly pleasure will not erase from our mind unless we stop caring about our outer appearance. At some point you will know who is GOD and what is permanent than you can reach LORD " Harati was completed with this words of BABA.

Than also he prayed BABA and took some agarbatti ash in his Pooja room and applied on the wound.He applied and removed his hand , strangely pain reduced.

Devotee noticed all this but he was worried for not having vibuthi with him and went to his daughter.Then he came to know that when NANA SAHEB applied vibuthi on his wife forehead and from that instant her daughter disease was cured.He was surprised and prayed BABA with gratitude.He felt happy.

Once SHYAM brothers wife got plague disease. Its getting worse. SHYAM asked for BABA help. BABA gave vibuthi and prasadam and told " you visit tomorrow, now you send this vibuthi and tell her to apply on the infected area and drink the water mixed with Vibuthi". SHYAM did the same. Next day when he went to see her , She is healthy and happy. SHYAM felt happy and prayed BABA again.

BIRTH OF MYNATHAI SON IS A MIRACLE

In 1904-05 NANA SAHEB lives in JAMNERU which is 100 miles from SHIRIDI.He has a daughter and she is about to give birth on that day but, her condition was not proper to give birth. She took so many medicines but there is no proper result. NANA prayed BABA to save his daughter from this hard situation.

In SHIRIDI there is a saint named " RAM GIRI BUVA" but BABA calls him " BAVU GIRI BUVA" He was going to " JALGAMU" so he came to Masjid for  BABA permission. Then BABA called  and told
"give Harati song and Vibuthi to NANASAHEB who lives in JAMNERU".Then BUVA replied "I have money to travel till JALGAMU only. JAMNERU is 30 miles from JALGAMU and I don't have money to travel more distance". BABA said " Everything will come to you only. don't worry,go fast" To solve his devotees problems he showed the interest and there is nothing strange in that.

Having faith on BABA BUVA started and reached JALGAMU. He has only 2 anna and its not sufficent to travel till  JAMNERU. He was thinking how to go then a horse cart came near him and asked " who is RAM GIRI BUVA" then he replied its me only than horse cart driver told him " NANA SAHEB sent me " and they both started to JAMNERU. They reached JAMNERU , BUVA went to refresh himself and when he returned again horse cart was not there. He was surprised seeing missing horse cart and some how reached NANA SAHEB house.

They felt happy gave vibuthi to her and sang harathi, In few minutes she gave birth to a son and she was also safe. BUVA heard the happy news and said " Thanks for sending the cart. Now i will leave" to that NANA replied with surprise " I don't know that you are coming. I did'nt send any cart to you.".They both came to know this was also a miracle of BABA and felt happy. Both prayed with gratitude and devotion.BABA is present everywhere. 

SAI NATHA FAVORITE DEVOTEE-MEGHADU

SAI NATHA devotee H.V. SATTE told his friend MEGHADU to visit SHIRDI and pray SAI NATHA. He went to Masjid but as he was a BRAHMAN  he thought why should I pray  a Muslim saint? Having ego feelings in his mind. He went to Masjid and when he was about to pray SAI NATHA scolded “ you are a BRAHMAN I m a Muslim.If you worship me you ll go to hell! Your caste will get bad name. Why you came? go away”.He was startled hearing the words of BABA as he thought the same . BABA didn't  allowed him to Masjid but , DADA KELKAR interfered and convinced BABA then he allowed MEGHADU to stay and worship him.

One day MEGHADU was doing meditation in his house,BABA came sprinkled some sacred rice grains and said “ write TRISHUL symbol” and went away. When MEGHADU opened his eyes and saw no one was there but sacred rice grains were there.He immediately went to Masjid and asked BABA to explain about that dream than BABA replied “ Its not a dream. I only came there and told you write trishula symbol”MEGHADU was surprised and said “ I locked all my doors from inside than how can you come inside my house” BABA smiled at this question and said “ I m present everywhere, I can go anywhere and I don’t need the houses to be opened so that I can come inside.who ever prays me with devotion and faith I ll help them in all their problems and I ll solve them.when I want to go near my devotees no one can stop me, wall and doors are nothing to me. MEGHA immediately write TRISHUL.  SHIVA will come to you” MEGHADU went to his house and wrote TRISHUL symbol, returned Masjid.Meanwhile one RAMA devotee came from PUNE and gave SHIVA LINGAM to BABA. At that time only MEGHADU came to Masjid, BABA looked at him and said “ look you wrote TRISHUL symbol and your LORD SHIVA came to you. Take this and worship “.He did the same worshiped both BABA idol and SHIVA LINGAM daily.In 1912 MEGHADU died. BABA touched him and said “ he is the true devotee of mine,I can never forget him” .

He was so vexed and told " Tell BABA that my pain is unbearable and let me suffer this pain in my next lives also". BABA heard those words of BAVU ANNA and told him to "Come Masjid , I will cure and pain gets reduced".

All his friends brought doctor to the Masjid. Immediately BABA said " remove those bandages on the boil otherwise you ll die.Now one crow will poke on your boil and your pain will be reduced." and they removed the bandages.

While everyone are speaking the person name ABDUL who cleans Masjid walls and lit diyas came over there. By mistake he put his feet on the boil and puss came " Doctor cried with pain for a while, everyone consoled him later he smiled as his pain reduced". Than BABA said " BAVU is smiling that means his pain got reduced". and BABA also smiled happily. Then DR PILLAE asked BABA " where is the crow? when it came?" then BABA replied " You didn't see the crow? ABDUL is only the crow. you go home and take rest apply vibuthi on the boil for 10 days and drink vibuthi water". He did the same and his boil was cured completely.
