Mr and Mrs Bayaja Patil
The couple was an ardent devotee of Baba.
Right from the time they ‘found’ Baba as a young lad sitting under the neem tree, the parental feelings were aroused for Baba as if He was their son.
Mrs. Bayaja Patil showered love and cared for young Baba who abruptly would rush to the cactus jungle, an unknown old isolated place and actually pursued Baba to give Him bread (Bhakari) and salty smash of chana dal (Jhunka) and onion and chilly simple food items which Baba cherished most.
Baba also used to pay a visit to Patil’s house to have lunch (bhojan) of His choice.
When Bayaja expired Baba lamented over her demise.
So was the unthinkable tie of love between Bayaja and her family and Baba the love incarnate.
The present generation of Patil family still observe meticulously and very religiously the ritual of giving offerings of Thali (Naivedya) containing the above mentioned food items to Baba at Dwarkamai.
