Baba made him have faith in HIM .

Dear Readers
The following leela is told by Sai devotee Shri Ramchandra Amritrao Deshmukh of Shirdi about his elder daughter and how Baba made him have faith in Him by his other miracles.Please read the following leela as narrated by Ramchandra .Jai Sai Ram .

I was not accustomed to go to Baba’s Mandir even though I resided in Shirdi.

My eldest daughter fell ill with typhoid in 1961. She was admitted in the dispensary (now called Sainath Chhaya guest house). The fever did not abate even after medical treatment in the dispensary.

My wife gave her Baba’s Tirtha daily, morning and evening. Even though she was given treatment for 45 days in the dispensary, there was no improvement and she was not fully cured. Vexed with the treatment, we took her home in the same state, as we had admitted her.

Relying entirely on Baba’s Tirtha, my wife administered it twice daily by mixing it with Baba’s Udi and without using any other medicine. I told my wife that where even medicine had proved futile, what would Baba’s Tirtha and Udi do ?

Three days after being discharged from the dispensary, my daughter became alright and started to eat. She became hale and hearty within a month.

My wife compelled me to believe that Baba’s Udi and Tirtha alone had cured my daughter and no other medicine could do the same.

My mother had seen Sai Baba. She used to attend each and every Aarati and take Baba’s Udi and Tirtha daily.

One day, in 1961, at around 4 a.m., while going to answer nature’s call, she accidentally fell into the well by the side of our house. No one noticed. At about 5 a.m., those who came to draw water from the well saw her and took her out. The depth of the water was 48’ deep. She was fully drenched in the cold water, where she had remained for about an hour in her old age. After taking her out, two doctors examined her and immediately they said that her survival depended on Baba’s blessings, as her body was severely cold.

Even though she fell from a height of 48’, not even a wound was found on her body by Baba’s grace. Doctors were full of amazement as to how the old lady escaped without hurt and thrived after being severely cold, which was all due to the wonderful Leela of the almighty Shri Sai Baba.

After ascertaining that Baba alone had saved my eldest daughter from typhoid and my old, aged mother from her mishap, I got full faith in Baba and began to worship Him.

I began a daily ‘Parayan’ of at least one chapter of Baba’s Satcharita in Marathi every evening.

As soon as I began to read, a very big frog used to come and remain by my side till my reading was over. This went on till the ‘Parayan’ of Baba’s Satcharita was complete. The day after my ‘Parayan’ was completed, it never came again. Not only our family members, but those who visited us also saw this. We all decided that it was Sai Himself Who came in disguise to listen to my ‘Parayan’ in order to strengthen my faith in Him.

Later, there was a big problem of my eldest daughter’s marriage. I decided that, whatever by my position, I would perform her marriage in 1974 at any cost. At that time, I fell ill and was in no financial position to perform her marriage. I heartily prayed to Baba, “O Baba, even though I had no faith in You in the beginning, You Yourself relieved my family problems. Now, I pray from the bottom of my heart to fulfil my eldest daughter’s marriage and cure me of my illness.” Baba heard my prayer.

One fine morning in Jan. 1975, my eldest brother came along with the bridegroom’s parents to my house for talks and we settled the marriage on 18.5.1975. The wedding was performed in a simple and fit manner in Baba’s Mangal Karyalaya. We prepared food for 500 people – more than our expectation. Unexpectedly 800 people came. If we did not feed them, our family honour was at stake. There were no ways and means forthcoming to me to resolve this problem.

With complete faith in Baba, I hurried to Baba’s Dwarkamai, prayed with all my heart, asking Baba to save my family honour, took Udi and returned to the Mangal Karyalaya. I put Baba’s Udi in all the vessels containing food and began to serve the guests. To the amazement of all, not only 800 people were fed, but food for almost 200 people remained.

The omnipotent Baba by His Leela thus magnanimously saved the honour of my family.
