I want to share my experience. I prayed to Baba for a job in a company of my choice and prayed for it every moment for the past 5 months. I read Satcharita in a week and after that I read it one chapter a day and did two rounds of this. I also did Sai Baba 9 Thursday vrat and prayed for my wish. On the last Thursday I made 101 sandwiches for the poor and distributed them. During the time I was reading Satcharita I got Baba in my dream. I felt elated. Recently after my 9 thursdays fast completed, there was a job listed in the company of my choice and I applied to it with a friend's help who works for that company. I have a book of Sai Baba where if you think of a number and ask a question, it gives an answer. When I did this, the answer I got from Baba was "Think of your favorite God and calamity will disappear. Take new work without thinking of any benefit." This kept circulating in my mind. My friend submitted my resume to the hiring manager and after 3 weeks I got an email from the recruiter saying they would like to talk to me. I was excited and thought something good will happen. So I scheduled a time and talked with the recruiter and recruiter asked me my salary expectations. I told him I what I was making currently and gave him a range. He told me that the position I had applied for paid half of what I was looking for and so I would not be a good fit for it. I was very disappointed. After this conversation when I checked my email, I saw an email from the recruiter saying that he had discussed my salary expectations with the manager and they still wanted to interview me! I was so excited! I prepped well for the interview and attended the interview. After the interview was over, I told myself that even if they dont match my current salary (which they probably would not in any case), I would still take the job for a lower salary because it was the right position for me and also felt confident that Baba's message told me the same - "take new work without thinking of any benefit". I prayed every moment since then and kept checking my phone and email every minute to see if there was any response from the company. On Wednesday night I dreamt of my mom and she was telling me in my dream that my late grandmom told her that everything will go well, since I prayed to God so earnestly. I felt so much more confidence. Today I got a call from the company telling me that they have selected some other candidate and moved forward with them. I felt very upset and dejected and cried a lot. For some reason, I felt Baba would grant me this wish, but I was wrong. I go to Sai Baba temple every Thursday and I did not want to go today. But when the evening came, I ended up going there. I still do believe that Baba does grant wishes if they are asked with an honest mind. I prayed to Baba that if he fulfilled my wish, I would post my entire experience here. Though my wish is not granted, I am still posting it. Om Sai Ram

\|\| Shree Swami Samarth \|\| Dear Devotees, SaiRam! I have put my head on Shirdi Sai BABA's charan last weekend at the Sunnyvale temple and prayed to HIM 'Let my devotion increase toward YOU and help my heart become pure and this is not possible without YOUR grace'. The same I have been praying earnestly to Swami Samarth for last few days. (BABA and Shree Swami Samarth are the same as per Sai Satcharitra) Then on Nov. 10, 2008, I read that Satsang helps you achieve the above faster, but thought to myself that I am not truly doing any Satsang, and then left that thought there itself. Then, yesterday, (Tuesday, Nov. 11, 2008) at around 7:45 p.m, I finished my pooja and was about to start cooking (papi pet ka savaal hain), I suddenly received a call on my mobile by one Mr. Mukundrao Hanumante. I was extremely surprised to receive his call, he being a great and accomplished Swami devotee, I thought why would he call me! This was the first time I was going to talk to him one-on-one and in a phone call. I had never talked to him or met him before. I had only e-mailed him so far to ask him to send his several copies of books several times. (Note: He is PhD, staying in Southern USA. He has writeen book in English under the explicit command of Shree Swami Samarth 'The Glimpse of Divinity- Shree Swami Samarth' and is in constant communion with Swamiji through his meditative sadhana. Details are at ** ). He told me that they are running Swami Satsang and asked me whether I would like to participate in it!! It would involve Rudra for Lord Shiva and said to me in Marathi ''Swami na rudra atishay priy ahe ani tumhala rudra che mahttwa sangnyachi garaj nahi'!!!!! (Meaning: Swami loves Rudra and you must already be knowing its importance). I just nodded humbly 'Yes'. (Note: Rudra is a gist of all vedas and is recited the very first time by Lord Shiva HIMSLEF to Lord Brahma. Brahma recited it from HIS south facing mouth (dakshin mukha), to HIS 'sapta putras', Atri Rishi, etc, who in turn, recited it to their disciples and so on). Once the call was over, in a few minutes, I realized that, the same day morning, I was reading chapter 34 in Gurucharitra where Sri Guru explains the importance of Rudra to a pious and devout couple!!!! and a momentary desire had crossed in my mind that I should recite this Rudra. ( I had done it by myself quite a long time back twice only alongwith abhishek to Shiva Linga). This is just in synchronization with what Mukundrao told me 'You must be knowing the importance of Rudra'!!!! and in synch with my desire to do Rudra after reading its importance!!! As if Mukundrao had got the message(thru Swami/BABA) that I had read it today only and want to do it!!!!!! I was extremely surprised by this fact, and at the same time thanked BABA (Swami Samarth) for allowing to get closer to HIM by reciting Rudra with the Satsang group! Thus, for last few days, I have been earnestly requesting Swami (BABA) to allow me to increase my selfless devotion toward HIM and here I get the call from devout and pure soul Mukundrao Hanumante to fulfill my wish!!! He earnestly wanted me to join from this thursday, but I told him that I could join them only from next thursday, since this thursday, I will be visting BABA's temple on the occassion of Karthik Pournima. Incidently, this thursday, at BABA's temple in Sunnyvale, there is Rudra Abhishek, I believe, and I could at list get to listen to a part of it!!! So, would not be missing it this thursday either!!! (Note: Shree Swami Samarth has told one of HIS devotees, from Solapur in Maharashtra that HE(Swami) is not different from Lord Shiva and gave him vision (darshan) as Lord Shiva. Also, BABA convinced HIS devotee, Megha from Gujrath, that HE(BABA) and Lord Shiva are the same.) Thank you for reading this. May GOD bless us all and the entire world! Best Regards, Avinash J. Tannu

Reading so many sai devotees experiences, I would like to share my two experiences. First experience, (three things happened in the temple). In 2005, in the month of January myself and my two daughters visited shirdi. Before we moved out of India we are used to visit shirdi, and Nashik Trimbakashwar temple almost every year. But after moving out it was not possible for us. That year I have been looking for marraige to my elder daughter. When we were in shirdi, my younger daughter has seen Baba in her dream, and said baba is at the door and knocking very loudly and would like to talk to her. She has the same dream thrice. Then the next day we went to shiva temple at Triamkashwar. In the main temple inside the temple when we were in the Que , there was a big Sitha Rama. photograph and our Que was moving ahead, and my elder daughter was praying to shiva with her folded hands and from the sitha rame photograph a flower has fallen into her hands. And I am always used to perform abishekam to Lord shive every year when we were in India. That time I have asked pandit to perform abishekam and the pandit told me because my husband is not accompanying me at that time I can't perform poja. I felt very upset and was all the time standing in the Que feeling very sad. We finished the lord's darshan, and came out of the main temple. Then there were no people around and we were all alone. Suddenly I felt that some one told me there is Ganga water coming out of the main temple and it is good to sprinkle it on our head. So picked up some water and as soon as i turned back there was a person standing behind me (and he took a cap similar to one marathi people wear) and asked to sprinkle that water on his head. I have been doing shiva abishekam every monday since last 25 years. Second Experience. I had seen baba in my dream, telling me to say Sai charanam, makika saranam. That means Sai feet, will save u. I had seen baba the whole night standing next to me and uttering the above words.

Hi all sai devotees, One miracle happened last week. As i lost my job i was praying baba to show me a good way. suddenly i took baba's pictured frame into my hands and asking him to help me. i noticed a gold ear ring to his right ear and surprised. because the other ear is not having the ear ornament (ring). When i got that picture, i noticed that baba was having neither of the ear rings. suddenly i found a gold ear ring to his right ear and i was thinking that why baba worn only one ear ring, i asked baba to look at my ears -- having both ear rings. But then i realized that i was having only one ear ring (right side)and the other is missing..... oops! So, baba also got only one ear ring to the same ear (right). 2) Baba is always with me. one night he touched me with his hands i really felt his hands also. I was frightened but was not able to turn back to see his face. i was totally frightened. my heart was beating very rapidly and thought of making myhus to wake up. but i did not do that. He is the only god....born for the devotees. Om Sri Sai nadha yanamaha... All the devotees please try to help me. My physician (job) ended last month 31. So, i was looking for the QA positions and i am a staunch devotee of sai baba. I am blessed. I have given my last job just because of my friend sai baba, he is my dearest friend in the world. i know definately he will show me a very good path. but still i want to get help from one of you. i know many devotees are in USA. if you have any QA positions in your office. Please do let me know. Youcan send your emails to lakshmi0809@gmail.com

I have recently moved to a new country. I had looked for a Shirdi Sai Baba temple and found none. There was a Sathya Sai Baba temple and I got a call from the priest that there are photos of Shirdi Sai Baba also. Thanks Baba. I know that if one looks hard enough God also can be found. I hope to my life will be set thanks to the help of Shirdi Sai Baba.

Sai Ram, I'm back again with another wonderful experience. This evening I had gone with my friends for a seafood dinner.Then as I was returning home,one of my neighbourhood friend called me on my mobile and asked me to meet her at a common place which we always used to gather to chat. As I was at the neighbourhood drug store getting some last minute purchases done, I agreed to meet her. As I was walking towards the place, I had this sudden urge to go to the restroom as I already felt the cramps in my tummy..but where will i find one as I was on the streets and my home is like a 15mins walk from the place that I'm supposed to meet my friend. I was asking baba at this time..baba,pls take away this pain in me till I reach my home safely..cos my friend was taking some of her relatives to introduce to me..but because I was controlling the pain, I was perspiring profusely so I asked baba to subside the pain so that I can be normal while I was chatting with them. Within 3 secs I dn't know where the pain went to..it was like it just disappeared as it came..then I was chatting for a bout 20mins or so with these gals and I was still feeling normal when I reached the basement of my apartment. Finally when I reached home..the pain slowly started to kick in..I laughed to myself and thanked bab..baba,,thank u so much to hold back the pain or else I would have felt uncomfy while talking to my friends...I would like to say the same thing that I always say here. Believe in him as he is there to help us. Thank you baba for coming into my life and I also pray that you bless all your devotees around the world. Sai Ram

Sai Ram to all devotees, Last Friday I was supposed to have a conference in my office and since I'm the secretary for this meeting I was supposed to print the minutes and agenda as well as to do a presentation on my part. At this point of time, for some reason I couldn't print any of the stuff I was supposed to print and my PC was not behaving all of a sudden. The whole morning everything was ok,it was jus 20 mins to the meeting that this thing happened. I was praying to baba that the meeting should be postponed as I was stuck with everything. Even my colleague from the next cubicle was experiencing the same thing,can't print nor edit the power point slides. I was frantic when my boss informed called me into his office. I was tensed at this time thinking that I'm gonna get it but to my amaze he jus said..LOOKS LIKE THE ATTENDANCE IS VERY BAD ..POSTPONED THIS MEETING..i just stood there stunned..and I was so happy that I immediately thanked baba for this wonderful leela. Seems like my boss saw the attendance as a reason to postpone the meeting but what he didn't know was the network thing that was going around in the office.I was so happy that I looked at baba's pic on my table and the best part was my printer resumed as normal and net work was up again. See,baba is there to help us and also to guide us. We just have to pray with a sincere heart with full faith and he'll definitely help us no matter how bad the situation is. Jai Sai Ram

Today Saturday, Nov 8th, I planned to go to Shiva Temple. I was thinking to go to Sai Baba Temple next week. Then i asked my roomate if he wanted to come. He said that there is a Siva Linga prathista in Sai Baba's temple. Hence it was miracle that i could go to Sai Baba temple at and did abishekam to the Siva Linga. What a miracle this is, which shows Sai Baba is Lord Shiva. I pray Baba to be with me and guide me in my life. I love you Baba. Have mercy and your blessings on me. Om Sai Ram

I had read in Satcharitra many times that we should not follow astrologers and should have faith on Baba. Year 2008 started rough for me in every aspect of my life. It so happened this year that my job situation was not going very well and in spite of my hard work, I was not getting rewarded for my work. My company started laying off few employees in my department. I was much anxious with this situation and started looking for new jobs but that was also not working out. Another reason for my anxiety was the fact that,I am on a work visa in US and getting laid off from job means that I loose my visa status in the country. In spite of having read in Satcharitra that we should not go by what the astrologer says, I contacted an astrologer and went against what I read in Sai Satcharitra. I was much frustrated. I just prayed to Baba to forgive me for doing this - (as I cannot handle so much anxiety and I am not harming anyone this, so please let me go ahead and get a reading from an astrologer and get some answers from the astrologer). The astrologer is a famous one in India and his predictions are known to be very accurate. His reading my horoscope he told me that my timing are not good career wise and that until September 2009 it will be a tough period where I will not get any recognition for my work . Being in September 2008 and thinking of 2009, it meant a long wait for another year before my situation could improve any better. I was highly frustrated and mad at God thinking that I never do anything bad to anyone and always work hard, then why I have to suffer this ?. I started keeping 9 fasts for Thursdays for Baba and prayed to him to help me find another job which would be better and provide me with a better recognition and money. Simultaneously the lay-offs and budget cuts were still going on in my company. One Thursday evening (it was my 3rd fast), my new manager called me into his office and to my utter surprise informed me that starting October they will give a raise, based upon my performance and designation will also change too. And I was totally in loss of words with happiness.I immediately felt there is someone up there ,who can truly prove astrologers wrong. But it was so foolish of me to keep running to them . What could not have improved until one year was improved for me by HIS Grace much before what was predicated. I am so thankful to Baba to have heard my prayer and blessed me It is amazing that I did not have to switch jobs as the market is bad and the raise and money I got now is sufficient to my satisfaction and needs. Baba turned around my entire job situation and timings and proved that prayers and patience can truly improve our situation. Rather than looking for short cuts I need to put all my energy in praying to Lord. May Baba give me strength to keep holding on to him with Full faith and patience during my turbulent time .

Hi, This is my experience with Baba showing his mercy immediately on me when i asked for his blessings. It was in year 2007. I went to my H1 visa stamping to one of the consulates in Mexico. The immigration officer asked me to wait and i was not aware what the reason was. We went in a group and all of them got their visa and i was the only one left. I hoped and prayed for Baba's blessings and miracle happened. The officer told me to wait for my visa will be given in few mins. THis was a miracle happened. As i prayed for Baba's blessings, i got it. This experience of mine shows that baba give his blessings to whoever seeks his protection and mercy.

Sai Ram to All Devotees, I would like to relate 2 unbelievable experiences that I went through with Baba's grace. I have an important audit coming up in my organization and since I'm holding on to a finance appointment I have to make sure that everything is ready for inspection.Now the problem is,this audit is supposed to be next year January so I was taking my time to prepare when I received an information from my HQ asking me to be ready by November which means I have only one month to rush to prepare everything and that too it was just impossible. I was beginning to feel very nervous and I kept worrying day and night on how I was going to cope with all these cos Monday is the supposed audit. Then I started to pray and ask Baba for help. I was asking HIM to save me from this situation or else I will be in deep trouble for not getting things done early. This morning I made a call to my HQ and I was confirming on the dates of the audit and to my surprise the guy at the other end told me that it's actually not on Monday and it's postponed to somewhere mid of November,that means I have ample time to finish everything and not only that I didn't have to prepare lots of them only a certain amount of transactions need to be processed,which means less work for me. I can't describe how happy and excited I was upon listening to this news. I asked the guy why the sudden change and he told me that it was a last minute decision from the board. yes,it is last minuted indeed...Baba's leelas are all last minute as we know he will test us but will not forget or forsake us. I was praying and thanking him looking at his picture that was on my table. Then the other thing was,as I was busy I didn't realise that it was luch time and I was dead hungry. But to my dismay,I realised that I didn't bring my enough cash to get food from the canteen..I was wondering again how I was gonna get food and looked at Baba's picture again..another wonderful leela this time...my colleague called me on my mobile asked me to meet her at the canteen as her husband went out fo town to get some stuff and he was bring lunch and that too extra..so I said ok and went to meet her. She passed me a packet of Dosa and I was smiling to myself while eating and thanking Sai Nath that he gave me food through my friend. I was so happy I knew that Baba was taking caare of me every minute and that too with patience and faith...everything will be in our favour.Sai Baba , how can I thank you enough? I know you are there to look after us. Please bless your devotees like you always do Baba,may your grace be upon us forever. Sai Ram

BABA's leelas continue in HIS own mysterious ways! I had a rather childish or foolish wish for lakshmi pooja.I do not know what made me have this wish..I just had it and being childish wish, you may want to mark that wish as one with a pure and selfless devotion:-) ...just like an innocent child would ask his/her mother! Please see details below how it got fulfilled. I wished and, as a child forgets it and then it remembers again, so did I forget after wishing it and then realized it only at the time of calling off the day and while going to sleep on the night of lakshmi poojan that, the wish, indeed was fulfilled! May GOD bless all its devotees! ===================================== I just said a day before lakshmi pooja "Swami and BABA, you must come for the pooja. I don't know how you want to do that but you must come."I kept Swami and BABA photos for pooja. Then I had invited only two single female folks- Vaishali and Manjula who live in our apt.complex to take the prasad. I had not invited any male folks, since all are with families and busy with the pooja.I had no choice. I was wondering, if I would have invited male folks, I could at least treat them as Swami and BABA. Once the pooja was over, this is what happened. With Manjula, an uninvited male guest, named Ganapathi showed up!He appeared to be a devotee of Saint Ramana!He told me few stories of Parashuram and Shiva, while we were chatting! Then within minutes, my neighbor, who saw a diya in my doorstep, was wondering if it is about festival of light. I told him yes and he was right at my door. He appeared extremely eager to know about it more and so I asked him to come in, showed him pooja and gave him prasad. He was very glad and very willingly took the prasad!!! At night, when everything was over and I was on my bed thinking, 'did BABA and Swami showed up?' That time I realised that 'Oh my GOD, I had two uninvited males, who showed up for Prasad!'. Then I thanked BABA and Swami for keeping my desire!Incidently, only a couple days before, I read Sai Charitra chapter where BABA shows up as Sanyaasi with two more guests for his Devotee Mr. Deo at Dahanu!I this way two males, whom I had not invited, showed up, and I must say that BABA and Swami thus showed up!!! Thank you. best regards, avinash j. tannu

OM Sai Ram I have been devotee of saibaba since some time. One recent experience I had of his blessings was when I had gone for my daughter’s admission for B.com. I had already paid the fees and specifically asked for accounts and finance as her specialty, which they had agreed . after two weeks they had called the first years with their parents for an informal interview. We went to the class room, and stood in the line waiting for accounts and finance dept. when our turn came to sign the papers, we found that my daughters name was not on the list. I checked with them, and after so much arguments and checking it was learnt that her name was in the B.Com general list. I had to fight with them because I had specifically asked for a&F. But they said they could not do anything since the number of students in a&f was full and no seats available. I came back home and prayed to baba. After two days the college authorities called and offered her seat in a&f. as one girl had shifted to another dept. and one seat was vacant. This was through baba’s grace and blessing and my daughter could join her stream. Baba never lets us down. Almost what ever I have wished for has happened. Now I pray to baba for my Childrens education and our health. I am having thyroid problem and gastritis. I pray to baba for his help in clearing all this as soon as possible with out any problem. I try to go to shirdi every year if possible. Baba, please keep us healthy , happy and peaceful sirdi satchidhananda satguru sainath maharaj ki jai

Hello Sai devotees, I have full faith in Sai baba but one recent incedent increased my faith in Bab many folds. On 21st ie 4 days back my husband went to Pune for official work and came back home at 11.30 night. We normally lock the outside iron gate on the 1st floor of the bunglow where we stay. He climbed the stairs and suddenly started feeling giddy. Now this is where Baba stepped in & my husband was able to dial my cell no. and he lost his balance and fell down from the stairs. On getting this call i came out to open th elock and to my shock saw my husband lying at the foot of stairs with his forehead and eye swolled and bleeding nose. We rushed to the hospital immediately. All the way i was praying to Baba that there should be no head injury. And he should come and cure him. My husband was admitted in ICU. The same night and next day all the tests like CT scan, MRI, various X rays were done and it was confirmed....... NO INTERNAL INJURY!!!. Infact all the doctors were surprised that inspite of falling from such a height, there was absolutely no injury.. not even a scratch. Only because of what we call MUKAMAAR, the body is paining and for swelling no medicines are required. I have been applying baba's udi and the swelling has also subsided. He was discharged from the hospital in 2 days and is back home and recovering from weakness. He wil infact join office immediately after Diwali. My faith in Baba has increased so much... because he came to my rescue as soon as I called him with my heart. He only took care... i cant even imagine what would have happened if my husband had not called on my mobile just before falling ! I had decided to post this experience as soon as my husband is back home and here i am fulfilling mu promise as well.

Seeing BABA's murthy in California temple three consecutive Saturdays before it arrived from Shirdi SaiRam Devotees -I wanted to share this miraculous experience with you. I am putting down the entire e-mail communication in this regard. Thank you. regards, avinash SaiRam Venkat- My friend Suyog Kulkarni walked in today to drop his plants at my home so that I can water them while he and his family is in India.His family is already in India and he is going on Thursday July 24, 2008. It was around 10:30 -10.45 p.m. or so, Wed July 23rd night and I had ** site open on my laptop. He was just browsing it while I was geeting some cut fruits for him and with great enthusiasm, he showed me Baba's arrival photos at the temple on my laptop. I saw the heading as Baba's arrival on March 7, 2007. But I told him that how is this possible, I had visited temple for the first time approx. in Feb 2007 end and had seen the same murthy that day in my first visit and even before March 7, 2007. So, I called you and you told me that the arrivak date is correct and until March 7, 2007, chavadi murthy was there. After this, Suyog left and then I called you to talk about the dhoop and then I went to bed and around 12:00 am it started bothering me to check when exactly I visited the temple first time, because I always remembered seeing big and tall murthy in the middle. I found that I visited it on Feb 17!!!!!!(the e-mail inivitation for the program is attached, alongwith program details attachment.) I was called for Harinam saptah at the adjoing temple for Kalawati Aai and I was visting the premises for the first time without being aware of Baba's temple. I clearly remember that the very first time I visited, and thereafter always I had seen the big and tall murthy and the exact same setup as is today from Feb 17, 2007 onward!!!!!!!! In fact I had said this to my friend Milind Tamhane also that the murthy is just big like Shirdi who happened to meet me at the adjoing temple on Feb 17, 2007. I rememebr that, on that day, I visited temple, took darshan of Baba , and as soon as I sat down, I was handed a red rose. I had visited there again on Feb 24, 2007 saturday then again on March 3rd Saturday and have been visiting the temple at least every saturday since then and all the while I had seen the exact same setup, as is today, big tall murthy like Shirdi murthy in the middle, and then chavadi murthy at the right and dwarkamai frame at the left. But the website says Baba's muthy came on March 7, 2007. I had never noticed any different murthy or any change on or before or after March 7, 2007. I had always seen the tall murthy from Shirdi and the exact same setup as is today on Feb 17, 2007, on Feb 24, 2007 and on March 3rd, 2007 I mean three times before Baba's murthy came on March 7, 2007, I saw it sitting in the middle, with the exact same setup as one would see today.How is this possible? It is upto you to believe it or not but I always had seen Baba's tall murthy even before (as the website says) it arrived on March 7, 2007.Can you double check if it arrived before Feb 17, 2007? May be the date on the website is accidently put as March 7, 2007 instead of Feb 7, 2007..? If the date of arrival is indeed March 7, 2007, then I saw it three times sitting there even before it arrived !!!!!!Baba's leela's are unfathomable!!!!!!!..and I am noticing this after a year and a half almost!!!!!! Thank you. regdards,avinash j. tannu

I am an ardent devotee of Lord Sri Sai Baba. I have observed that if I see the photo of Lord Sri Sai and ask him anything for the betterment of my life, it is definitely granted. I was wandering without a definite job when I once saw Lord Sai's photo and felt I should ask him something. I asked him to bestow me a secure job and which has good growth potential, the very month, I attended an interview in an MNC company and passed the test and got the job. I also subsequently married after 9 months into that job... May lord sai bestow everybody good things in life.... I thank Lord Sai everyday every moment. Om Sai Nathaya Namah

SAI devotee - chennai India	Written on Monday, 20 October 2008 19:48

Hi , Iam very eager to read the sweet moments of experiences of SAIBABA.in 2006, while I was browsing the internet , I was trying to read some experiences of SAI baktas.That was the year I touched soil of shirdi. After reading some of the experiences, I thought that I should also share some of my moments , But later for some reason, I dint post my experience even that thought remain in my mind, Now , this is 2008 , Thanks to Baba that I found this site! and now again while reading some of the experiences of sai baktas, I really feel sorry that I still dint post the experiences and now I write this for all sai baktas ! I too experienced some of the miracles of baba , which I would like to share … I got a good job in a MNC by the grace of baba. I attended that phone interview on Thursday praying baba that I have to get the job, and while the interview was going on , I was looking at baba’s photo and was answering the question ! but I dint answer the questions in the interview well… after the interview was over, I thought I will loose that opportunity of getting the job. later that the moment I cut the call of interview, I really dint ask baba to get me the job. . but I just saw the photo of baba without asking him anything but consoled myself that as per baba’s wish let it happen. Within a week, I got a call that I got selected , and got the job … Since that time I have never been to shirdi... But I have an very great desire to go to shirdi… after I joined the MNC company ,after few days ,in office I found a friend, who is also a sai devotee… and one day, we were speaking about her shirdi visit, she said she got a mail where it has the photos of shirdi.. I was eager to see that and asked her to open the mail box and I saw the photos with anxiety that when I would touch the soil of shirdi… and after a week I got a call for a project in Mumbai (currently am at Chennai) , where I have work in Mumbai for 2 and half months…when I get the call, it striked in my mind that if I go to Mumbai, I may go to shirdi.. I have never been out of my home for a long period, and my parents will not allow me to stay alone as they afraid … so I was in a dilemma , whether to accept to go to Mumbai or leave that opportunity as in my home they will not allow. So I just called to my mother , praying saibaba to make my mother to accept to go . She never accept much easily for these cases, but with wonder, she said I could go… I called my sai devotee (office) friend through phone , I was sharing my happiness that I may go to shirdi as in my home they accepted to send me to mumbai… and she said, it sai’s call that u have to go there ..( I felt very much happy) and she reminded me that just a week before I was watching her mail box with photos of shirdi .. I was too happy but then I don’t know anybody there in Mumbai... I am the only girl to go there... so I was thinking in my mind that only if I get another girl to accompany me, I would go, otherwise not ! I reached mumbai and there was girl in my own team, so I gave a try asking that shall we go to shirdi , but she doesn’t show much interest on the trip and then after two weeks she left the place. So I thought that is there anyother girl who could accompany me and the days are passing. After a month a girl joined as my roommate , and while some discussion was going on, I came to know that she is also sai devotee.. One day , She was discussing with her team member about the trip to shirdi in office and when we meet on that day night she said their team were talking about their trip. I was very eager to join them and said that if they go, I will join them without fail, and pleased her to accompany me… she said it’s not decided fully, it was a plan and may be executed. Then days passed on and there was only one week left out of my 2 and half months period to return to my home place (Chennai). On Friday night while returning from office , I had to wait for bus, there was a stair where I sat and waiting for bus and was talking to baba from my heart that , “ Baba , I came here to Mumbai only because I wanted to go to shirdi , if I do not get a chance , how will I reach my hometown back without seeing you , if it is so , for the purpose which I came to Mumbai is not done , Please baba, today is Friday , I really don’t know what u will do , I have to touch the shirdi soil on Saturday ( the next day ) or by Sunday morning “. I was keep on thinking and speaking my grief to go to shirdi with baba and the bus came and when I reach my room , a surprise was awaiting for me !!! it is that , my room mate (sai devotee) has booked ticket to go to shirdi , but by the time I reach the room she cancelled my ticket as because after booking the ticket for me along with their team member to visit shirdi , she was searching me in the place where I used to sit in the office , but unfortunately , when she came to search me , I was not available there … so , they decide to wait for sometime and let me know about the booking when I come to the room, she was waiting from 7.00 , but as the workload was heavy on that day , I reached room by 9.00 PM , as the time was running out , before I reach home, their team and my roommate decided to cancel my ticket as I may not reach by the time they leave to the place to catch the bus…and there was no communication between us for some reason … so just few minutes before I enter the room , they called the travels and cancelled the ticket, and at the moment I reach the room , my roommate said “ where are you, we are planning to go to shirdi ( i felt extreme happiness) , but we cancelled your ticket as we expect that u may not reach by the time we leave ( I felt extreme sadness) .. Then I asked her to make a call to travels and ask her to book the ticket as because I Can’t speak Hindi fluently...When she was speaking to the travels person , in my room I was crying a lot, asking baba to allow me to come to shirdi . She called and by Baba’s grace, we got the ticket. But the ticket was not confirmed until we reach the place of departure, after we reach, it got confirmed and to my surprise we reached shirdi by Saturday morning ( this was the prayer I did last night that I wanted to touch shirdi soil on Saturday morning ) Now again a wonderful experience is , I have a thought while I was reading satcharita , that , in some adiyaya ( sorry I forgot the chapter number) , the baktas has realized baba in a form of Rama , shiva etc .. But I used to think in myself that how could it be possible, because in front of them, while their eyes are to the baba’s image, how could they see other god’s image… Though I have faith in baba. But It was the day I touched shirdi soil, I experienced that moment … We reached shirdi by 5.30 AM. The bus was parked in front of a hotel where there is a idol in front of that hotel. In that early morning, when we get down of the bus, when I saw the idol, I saw Ganesha’s idol there, and I turned my face . The moment I turned around my face, I was thinking within me that , how come in shirdi , a ganesha’s idol would be , why not BABA’s idol , and again I turned my head to see the idol, I saw SAIBABA’s idol there…. I really don’t know what made me to see the idol again after I turned around my head !!!! This was my great, wonderful experience , I ever had and I never forget until my life… sirdi satchidhananda satguru sainath maharaj ki jai .

I am an avid follower of Sai Baba. When ever I see baba my eyes fill with tears for some unknown reason. What ever and whenever I have called out to Baba for help, he has always answered my call. There has been many many instances in my life that if I have wanted something and asked baba to help all my wantings have come true. The latest blessings was I went for a good well paid job recently and I really wanted this job. I had gone for 6 interviews with local and US officials and eventually someone else was offered the job. I prayed to baba and thanked him for his blessings and took the no into positive. Unknown to me my wife actually prayed to baba and I silently did as well that why did I not got the job. It was unbelivable that a week later the job agency called me to say that the company rejected the other person and offered me the job. This was a miralce in it self and later my wife told me that she was very adamant that I would get the job and she also told me that someone told her this fact. Jai Shree Sai Ram

My experience with Sai Baba I know Saibaba from childhood, i used to visit Sai temple along with my parents on thursdays. Even I had been to Shirdi once. After moving to another city for education, visit to Sai temple stopped. I moved to B'lore, got job, got married. This year my parents had come to my house in June. I usually do not watch TV, but that day my father was watching some news channel in which there was a program about Shirdi Sai baba. I too watched the program, after watching I felt like knowing more about Sai baba and I started reading information available on the internet every night. I was getting very much interested to know life and teachings of Sai baba. During that time, my parents were about to go back and I went to railway station along with them. On the way back I saw Sai baba idol in one of the car at traffic signal. One day on the way, I saw poster of Sai baba. I was very glad to see this, and was feeling like Baba is calling me. Eventually I decided to visit Sai temple and also came to know that there is Gurupurnima festival in July month. I visited Sai temple along with my family and was very happy after having Sai baba's darshan, after that, in next week I went to Sai temple on Gurupurnima day, I was going thru many ups and downs in my professional as well as personal life, while aarti was going on my eyes filled with tears and I asked Sai baba to remove all my miseries. Also I asked him to give me his darshan. After aarti was over, I took prasadam and came out of temple, and there saw an old man wearing white dress, he was saying "Om Sai Ram" to everyone who was coming out of temple, he was doing "Namaskar" to everyone and also giving blessings by showing his hand. From his cloths he was not looking like he is poor and wanted something from people. He did Namaskar and gave blessings to me also, and was smiling, his eyes were filled with love and smile, I was thinking of offering some coins which were in my hand but was not sure whether I should give him or not as he was not asking for any money. I was feeling like he is Sai baba, I did namaskar to him and stood at some distance and was looking at him , then suddenly I saw a person giving some coins to him which he kept in his pocket, I too went and gave him coins, he again said “om sai ram " and blessed me. He gave me wonderful smile and looked straight into my eyes, his eyes were filled with love and smile, I feel he was Sai baba who gave darshan to me. This month I came to know about Shri Sai Satcharitra , and thought of reading it sometime later. Eventually I started it reading it online and completed my reading in one week. While i was reading it, one day just after finishing reading one of the chapters from Shri Sai Satcharitra in the afternoon, I was about to take nap and laid down on bed, then someone came at the gate which was locked, thinking that it may be salesman i was about to ignore him but after hearing sound of gate, I got up and went to see who is there. A person was there who was doing checking of LPG Gas leakage in every house and was asking me do get it done. Usually i do not entertain strangers when my husband is not at home but that day I thought of letting him to do checking and asked for his identity card, he gave me his identity card, to my surprise there was a photo of Sai baba in one corner of his I-card and the name of agency was 'Shree Sai Krupa agency'. I was very much delighted to see Baba's photo and felt that he is telling me that he is with me. On sixth day when I was reading Sai-Satcharitra online, as I finished the chapter, the internet got disconnected and I was trying various options (in laptop) of connecting to internet (connect , disconnect, find wireless network etc) as I thought the wireless network (between our wireless router to my laptop ) might have got some problem, suddenly I saw my latop, it was showing a wireless network whose name was 'sairam'. I tried to connect to that network and it was showing following lines -'you are connected to wireless network - sairam'. I was very happy to see this. One of our neighbours name is "Sairam" and it was his wireless network which my laptop detected and since it was sunday he was at home and might have enabled it. But what a coincidence it was, I never saw my laptop detecting this network earlier and the day I was reading sai-charitra and finished one of the chapters I had above experience which showed Sai baba is with me. After finishing reading of Sai-Satcharitra at the last day i wanted to give food to poor people but was not able to cook at home so I decided to give prasadam to people at nearby Maruti/Hanuman temple. So one day before I went to temple along with my husband and gave money to priest and asked him to prepare Prasadam and also asked him to give it to all people coming to the temple as well as to the poor people sitting outside the temple. I was feeling very guilty and nervous that I am not able to prepare and offer food myself, while handing over money to priest I just looked at the wall just in front of me, to my surprise again Baba was there in the form of Calender, I thought he is telling me not to feel guilty. After reading Sai-Satcharitra I am feeling very happy and peaceful and was thinking of posting my experience after few days, but today i started to write the experience and finished it and also posting it here. I pray to Baba to shower his love and grace on me and my family and also on all Sai devotees. I also pray to Baba that I become a good human being and travel on the path shown by Baba.

I am Baba devotee for the last 10 months. I had been reading devotees experiences on the web, and many times i read that people, when in deep troubles read the Satcharita in a single day Baba used to solve their problems. Once i was in a deep financial mess and remembering the devotees experiences i read the Satcharita in a single day (thursday, Aug 14th , 2008) and the next day i got a mail from the bank stating that they will consider my loan application. Actually this loan application was previously rejected. In the next week my loan was approved After a couple of months i was not sure if my project would be extended , so i again read the Satcharita in a single day (thursday, Oct 2nd, 2008) and the next day i got a mail from my vendor saying tentatively my project is extended for another 6 months and the follwoing week Manager himself told me that my project is extended for the next 6 months. If we completely believe Him and always follow the path of truth, He is always with us giving us eternal happiness

\|\| Shree Swami Samarth\|\| SaiRam Devotees- A couple of months back, my sister got a dream that she is offerring 1.25kg pedhas (sweet), to Akkalkot Shree Swami Samarth, in my name at HIS temple at a place called Dindori, near Nashik, Maharashtra (Akkalkot Swami and BABA are the same as per Shri Sai Satcharitra). She ignored it first, but then she again got the same dream. She is staying at Nashik, Maharashtra, and she called me to USA and told me this. She had once offerred 'barfi' to Shree Swami and that time someone in the temple told her that Swami likes pedhas. So, she said she would offer them but then forgot about it. Swamiji reminded her the same thru dream. I told her that she can offer the pedhas to Shri Swamiji at Dindori temple, near Nashik 1.25kgs in my name and 1.25 kgs in her name. I also told her that I will offer pedhas the same way to Shirdi Sai temple at Sunnyvale California. I decided that I should offer 1.25 kgs on 9th October at the temple in my sister's name and then would offer 1.25 kgs in my name some other day later on. On the day of Dasara (9th oct), I called mithai shop in Mountain View, California and enquired about the availability of pedhas, sometime in afternoon. I told him that I would need 1.25 kgs (2.75 pounds). He said that he may have it that much but was not sure and asked me to stop by directly and hung up. I started at about 4:45 pm and on the way, I thought I should also offer another 1.25 kgs in my name as well, so I would totally need 2.5 kgs of them = 5.50 pounds. I started worrying a lot that he may not have that much and that I should have booked order a couple of days earlier. I still went and thought, if not 2.5 kgs, then I should at least get 1.25 kgs so that I can at least offer it in my sister's name. I went to the shop, he weighed the pedhas and told him that I would need 2.5 kgs, do you have them? He collected all pedhas that were left in the shop. He weighed on electronic weighing scale and it turned out to be exact 5.50 pounds (total 2.5 kg) not a gram less , not a gram more!!!! (1 kg = 2.2 pounds) This certainly was BABA's leela!!! and HE acknowledged my desire to offer HIM pedhas on the day I wanted to offer HIM. Om Sai Ram!!!

Dear all… Here is my experience… My sister was counting her days to deliver a baby in the last week of Sep 2008. Few days back; the doctor told us that, it will be normal delivery for my sister. On Wednesday evening 24th Sep, my sister started getting her labor pain. My sister was hospitalized immediately. The doctor who consulted her told that, she might deliver the baby before 12 Midnight. But, that didn’t happen. Later they gave another time at 6 in the morning, that’s on Thursday (Our Baba’s day). But, this time also there was no sign of delivery. Finally doctor gave a final time at 9:30 in the morning, and also told us that, in case if she doesn’t deliver on or before 9:30, she has to undergo cesarean. When doctor told this, my mom was quite worried. Because, my sister had struggled a lot for about 14 hours and if it is a cesarean, all her struggle will go vain. Me, my mom, my brother-in-law and all my family members prayed a lot to Baba. Doctor and nurses waited up to 9:15, but then also, their was no sign of delivery. Finally, the doctor decided to go for cesarean. Nurses were getting my sister ready to the operation theatre. Friends, as we know that, Baba won’t leave the hands of those, who believe him. The same thing happened on that day. When my sister was about to be moved to the operation theatre, she delivered a boy at 9:22. Everybody heaved a sign of relief and thanked Sai for his gift. I’ve personally experienced many miracles of Sai in my life, and used to share those experiences with my mom. My mom was felling very happy and used to tell me that, Sai is there for me. The moment, my sister delivered a baby normally; my mom realized that, Sai is there for her also and in fact for those who pray him and surrender to him. Friends, this is all about my sister’s story. Now, I’ll like to share a bit of my experience, without which I can’t wind up!!! Actually, when my sister delivered the baby, I was at office. I was tensed. I opened this site, and started reading the experiences of others, and that moment, I prayed to Baba that, if my sister delivers the baby normally, I would post my sister’s experience in this forum immediately. The moment I thought this, I got a call from my aunt, telling that my sister delivered a boy normally….I was completely exited and was very happy. I immediately opened this site and started to pen down the experience, but I felt very lazy to pen down all those experiences here…and I thought it’s a waste of time to think and write all those here… and I didn’t kept my promise to SAI on that day. As the days passed on, Sai reminded my promise to me on various occasions in many ways, but I took it very lightly. You know friends; I’m paying hugely for whatever I’ve done. From the day I’d promised Sai till now, I’ve lost the peace in myself. I’m disturbed, perplexed and I’m feeling I’m loosing something in my life and I’m feeling nobody is there for me. It’s very difficult to explain my feelings! I never experienced like this in past. This is the first time; I’m going through this kind of hard phase in my life. I went to Baba temple, offered some money to poor-feeding; I spoke to my closest cousin and to friends; I watched movies. I did everything, and then also I was not able to overcome from this very bad phase. Finally, I went to Sai temple on Wednesday, the day before 90th anniversary of Baba’s Samadhi. I prayed him from my heart about my situation. Then also he reminded me about my promise. At that moment, I felt that at any cost I need to fulfill the promise I made to Baba. And today, I’m fulfilling my promise to Sai. Hope at least now, my situation will turn better. Sai, please forgive me; I won’t do this kind of mistakes ever in my life. Sai Ram. Yours, Sai Devotee.
