Shirdi Sai Baba's Grace-Experience Of Sai Devotees-Part 29.

Sairam ,
Happy Baba's day to all,
Though Shirdi Sai is invisible still devotees believe in Him,they get the experiences from Him in different form.With these experiences and love of Baba the devotees witness the living -visible form of HIM.

Mere chanting the name of Baba and taking His darshan free devotees from the shackle of Maya. It is necessary for devotees if they want to experience the love and blessing of Baba they must surrender to Him and always remember His name no matter where they are and what they are doing .By practicing this the devotee will witness the presence of Lord always with them. Here are few experiences reflecting the same essence of the above message. Jai Sai Ram .

Baba's blessing:

Shri Sayee Charan

Baba's blessings in abundance to all. Would like to share this small yet significant leela of baba. Thanks to sister manisha for this web seva to instill faith and devotion among all and for sharing this leela of baba. When you find no other person to help you in a situation with little time and strict office rules, your prayer to baba makes your task easy. please post the image sent herewith.

We have family card for the purpose of LPG gas refills. We need to renew this card in fair price shop. We can renew them only in the mornings within due date. We cannot opt any other time. There will always be rush for this process. I have none to send for this renewal process due to certain situations.

One thursday, safely i went bit early to be in front in the queue, so that i can finish it and attend office with little delay. But to my dismay i found some 50 persons standing in the line.

Shirdi Padayatra Experience- Sachin Nath.

Sairam ,
Happy Baba's day to all
I received a mail from Sai devotee Sachin Nath narrating his padayatra from Mumbai to Shirdi (Padayatra means travelling on foot ).The details are provided along with pictures and videos .It would be very informative and a guide to all the devotees who are interested to walk(padaytara) to Shirdi .Below is Sachin's mail with all  necessary details.Jai Sai Ram .

Sairam this is Sachin Nath from Hyderabad.
Please find attached a document wherein I have related my experience of Mumbai to Shirdi Padayatra along with pictures and links to videos and also do's and dont's of the yatra for those devotees who may want to pursue padayatra in future.

Document jots down the details of each and every day of the padayatra which I am sure will be helpful to many devotees who intend to do such a yatra or it may motivate few other to go on such yatra. There is not much information on such yatras on the net despite lakhs of devotees undertaking such padayatra every year.

Document also carries pictures and video links and do's and donts of the yatra. I will be grateful if the pictures are posted along with the experience as that will be really interesting for Sai Devotees.

I will have no issues if my email and my contact number 09666682162 is put along with my experience just in case if any devotees wants to seek more info from me directly.

Hoping to see this experience on your website along with pictures soon. Jai Sai.
Sachin.

Shirdi Padayatra 2012 (Shraddha Padayatrik Mitra Mandal)

In the year 2010, during one of my visits to Shirdi, I saw a big group of people (Padayatris), who had walked the distance of Nashik to Shirdi, a distance of almost 100 km. After that, I read about Mumbai to Shirdi Padayatra online (it was a very brief article) and I became very interested in participating in one such Padayatra myself. Since I stayed in Hyderabad, getting in touch with Padayatri Mandals and groups in Mumbai was very difficult and more so there was not much contact information about such Padayatras on the internet .

I used some websites like Fropper, indiadivine.org and also www.shirdisaibabkrip.org to let people know of my intent to do Padayatra with a hope that someone would contact me to join them for a Padayatra. But nothing came out of it until June/July of 2011. One gentleman named Nivas contacted me and informed me that there is a group leaving for Shirdi in the next couple of days. But that was too short a notice for me to take a break from my work for almost 2 weeks. I had to let go off that opportunity at that time, but Nivas did inform me that there will be another one in December.

Shirdi Sai Baba's Grace-Experience Of Sai Devotees-Part 28.

Dear All,
Happy Baba's day
Our Shirdi Sai Baba is the Abode of Mercy ,HE is deeply affectionate towards His children and is always by their side in the time of need. He is present in every atom of this universe be it animate or inanimate.And HE can be seen and witnessed by those who sincerely pray ,desire for HIS darshan and have immense faith on Him.Sai Baba is the only helmsmen in today's time for His bhakta ,by His mere darshan,He does away with fear,problem and pains of human's worldly life .

Today I am sharing 6-7 Sai leela shared by Sai devotees across the globe expressing the love of Sai Baba for His children.Before we proceed to Sai experiences I would like to mention a anonymous Sai devotee has left her query in the comment section of the following post http://www.shirdisaibabakripa.org/2008/10/sai-vachanthe-absolute-truth.html
and needs input from other Sai devotees on the dream the devotee had. I am copying the comment and would request the readers to leave their view in the comment section for the anonymous Sai devotee to read and understand .Jai Sai Ram .Manisha

"Last week, I saw baba in my dreams. The small murti of baba was draped with a shawl. As I uncovered it the baba comes alive. As if i woke him up from the sleep. His eyes blink very fast. I get scared and step back. Further he turns around and looks at me. Again today i dreamt of baba wherein we (my neighbours and other people from the building where i stay) were not able to complete the arti of Sai baba. And after 2 attempts i, holding the diya, look into baba's eye directly. And he blinks as he did in my previous dream (fast). This time he smiles at me - not a complete smile but just a gentle curve on the lips. Pls tell me what to do and what does this mean. - Shri SAI Devotee".

Baba came as Lord Ayyappa:

Happy Baba's day to all.

Sai Sevak Manishaji, thanks for sharing leelas of baba through many devotees, for sharing new albums in your Bhajans website and inputs in your Temples website with the grace of Saibaba. Thanks to the devotees for their share, without which we as a Sai family cannot find ourselves in positive spirit and as answers from baba, when difficulties surround us. It reflects Sai's grace for all of us. Baba bless all, as always.

Baba's grace, would like to share this leela. Please post the two pictures enclosed herewith. In Chapter-20 of Shri Sai Satcharita, devotees would have studied, "How Das Ganu's Problem was Solved by Kaka's Maid-Servant" and reads....

"...The people who were present then and heard this, thought that Baba was joking and said, "How could an illiterate rustic maid-servant solve the difficulties of this nature", but Das Ganu thought otherwise. He was sure, that whatever Baba spoke, must come true, Baba's word was the decree of the Brahma (Almighty). Das Ganu was taught the "lesson of contentment by the attitude of mind" practised so simply by the maid-servant........ HIS Unique Method of Teaching, "It is impossible to describe all the methods, that Baba used in imparting instructions to His Bhaktas. In this particular case, He sent Das Ganu to Vile Parle, where he got his problem solved, through the maid-servant. To those, who say that it was not necessary to sent Das Ganu outside and that Baba could have personally taught him, we say that Baba followed the right or best course, or how else could Das Ganu would have learnt a great lesson, that the poor maid-servant and her Sari were pervaded by the Lord."

This reminds of a similar experience on my part. We are undergoing lot of worries in the family. When this was going on everyday, I went to Sai temple daily, to keep off my burdens.

The flower-seller who is a rustic women, not much read, used to be kind would enquire about my family's welfare.

Sai Baba Saved Me and My 30 Week Old Premature Baby -Experience By Reena.

Sairam ,
Happy Baba's day to all

After reading todays experience readers will be choked with tears.They will feel strong wave of love for Baba and will be left spell bound acknowleding how Karunamayi is our Shirdi Sai Baba.The same happened with me as I went through the experience shared by sister Reena.

I would also like to mention that it is not only the grace of Baba on His bhakta but also the unconditional love and faith of His bhakta that compells the Lord to come running for the welfare of the devotee.I am reminded of Baba's word as stated in Sai Charitra ,where Baba says "It is My special characteristic to free any person, who surrenders completely to Me, and who does worship Me faithfully, and who remembers Me, and meditates on Me constantly." It is always the test of Bhakta to hold on steadily to the holy feet of His guru no matter what the situation is,when this is realised by Bhakta the Lord reveals Himslef and carry His bhakta in His own arm across the worldy afflictions .Similary in this experience shared here , same kind of faith sister Reena had in Baba and Baba graced her and her baby with His blessing .

Sister Reena has sent another mail where she mentioned about devotees who came in touch with her after reading her Sai experience in the website "Sai Baba Blessed us with Child" and after interacting with her their faith increaed many fold in Baba .They became hopeful and kept their patience and faith strong in Baba.Someone who lost patience and could not hold on to Baba for long lost Him. Others who held on to Him went on to have children and are happy that their desire was fulfilled.

I would request readers to leave comment for sister Reena just below this post in comment box .Jai Sai Ram .

Manisha sister,

Sairam.

Hope you remember me, we spoke many times through emails and I can never thank you enough for doing such a great job of creating and maintaining the blog. After so many months again I have an experience to share with all Sai devotees. It is about how Baba saved my 30 week old premature baby (I delivered the baby at 30 weeks) and how He saved my life too....!! Posting the same here...Can you please publish the same on your blog?

Om Sri Sainathaya Namah:

“Sai Baba, Thank you very much for everything”. Here’s a story based on an experience of how Baba helped me through pre-term labor, saved me and my baby girl.

With Baba’s blessings, I have a 2-year old boy (I have posted my experience on this blog, (Sai Baba Blessed us with Child)-( http://www.shirdisaibabakripa.org/2010/02/sai-baba-blessed-us-with-child.html). As soon as he turned 18 months old, I started to look out for a job. It was a pretty dicey situation since we are settled in the US and it becomes challenging for parents, mothers especially, to take a decision on whether to stay back at home and take care of the child or go to work. I personally think there are pros and cons to both.

I was working for most part of my career before I conceived my first child and then decided to resume work after he was a year and half old. Working was important to me since we have a loan in India to pay off and I thought the sooner I take up a job, the more I would be able to support my husband towards this responsibility. But I left this decision too to Baba.

Sweet Leela Of Sai Baba:

Sairam Manisha

Happy baba's day to all. Reading Sai devotees experiences are energy boosters. We seek more of it from Baba to keep shoo away our worries. Manishaji whenever i read new experiences in your website, i understand that baba is giving answers to many devotees for their prayers and giving hope, faith to all. I must also say, i enjoy listening to new bhajan albums being updated in your Bhajans Site. Baba bless your family. I wish to share one more sweet leela by our beloved mother Sai. Please post the sweet looking Frankfurt baba photo attached herewith and also thanks for same photo which you shared in your bhajans site.

Photo above:Frankfurt Sai Baba Temple -Germany.

On a thursday I went to shirdi sai temple nearby in the evening. After having His darshan, one unfamiliar Sai devotee advised me to do Dhuni pooja which is very powerful. He also advised me to offer Nava Dhaanya (nine variety of seeds which is available as a packet set in all pooja material shops to our budget) in the dhuni fire and said it will remove all dhoshaas, pitthru dhoshaas, obstacles, diseases etc.

On that thursday, i collected the sweet rice prasad made in jaggery and came home.
