Baba's Udhi - The One Medicine for all Diseases
Udhi, obtained from Dhuni, and lit by Shri Sai Baba in Dwarakamayi at Shirdi during his life time, is not a mere by-product of wood (ash) but a life - saving drug. During his life time, Baba used this Udhi for curing the various diseases of His devotees. Baba once sent this Udhi along with Arati song through Bapugir Buva to Nana Saheb Chandorkar, a beloved devotee of Baba, when his daughter Minatai was suffering from labour pains for three days at Jamner, a place 100 miles from Shirdi. After taking Udhi mixed with water, she had an easy delivery. Baba supplied Udhi on the affected portion of a boy, a nephew of a qualified doctor, who was suffering from tubercular bone abscess for a long time and after its constant application, the boy became quite well. Once, a doctor devotee of Baba at Shirdi suffered from guinea-worms. Without taking any other medicine but just taking only the udhi with water, the disease was completely cured in ten days. On another occasion, the wife of Bapaji, young brother of Shama was attacked with Bubonic plague and high fever at Sawool, a village 3 miles from Shirdi. Baba sent udhi through Bapaji and his wife was completely cured within a few hours. Similarly, an Irani gentlman's daughter suffered from fits and all medicines were tried, which gave her no relief. Her father obtained udhi from Kaka Saheb Dixit, Baba's devotee and gave it to his daughter mixed with water daily for some time and she recovered completely afterwards. An old gentleman of Harda (M.P.) was suffering from a stone in his bladder. He was too old to withstand any surgical operation. His son, on the advice of some friends, obtained udhi from Inamdar, a devotee of Baba, mixed it with water and gave it to his father. The stone was dissolved and the old man was soon relieved of his disease.
The above are only a few cases, where udhi was tried, used and applied, when Baba was in flesh and blood at Shirdi. Even after Baba's samadhi, udhi is now being used as a medicine and efficacious cure. Shri A. Krishna Bangam from Hyderabad reports that one day, when he woke up from bed in the morning, he noticed that his right eye's vision was not clear. He was getting some shade in the eye and when he applied udhi on the right eye, he got back clear vision within an hour and the shade also disappeared.
E. Perishta, a Bombay devotee states " Udhi" has cured me and my family from various difficulties and troubles. We do not use any pain-reliever for pain or fever. We are a happy and healthy family and Baba will stay with us for ever and ever". Smt. Sarojini from Hyderabad states that an old lady was advised to undergo cataract operation of the right eye by an Eye Specialist but later on, the need to undergo such operation was averted on the constant application of Baba's Udhi on the affected eye for some time. One Smt. Madhur Mathur of Bombay was travelling with her husband to cover holy places like Shirdi, Pandharpur and Mahabaleswar. The couple covered Shirdi and reached Pandharpur and had darshan of Vittal. At Pandharpur, suddenly she developed diarrhoea and vomitings and this state continued upto 4 a.m. The bus for Mahabaleswar starts at 7 a.m. from Pandharpur. Immediately Udhi mixture was given to her, which proved to be a miracle medicine. Afterwards motions and vomitings suddenly stopped and the couple could successfully complete their trip to Mahabaleswar, as per schedule. The case of Mrs. Uma from Kanpur is really wonderful, interesting and thrilling to the devotees. Both Mrs. Uma Das and her husband Dr. B. G. Das are great devotees of Baba and Dr. Das is also running a clinic at Kanpur in the name of Sai Baba. It appears that a tin box in which a small quantity of Udhi was supplied to them about ten years back is never found empty till now and they are using it as a common remedy for numerous ailments. Dr. Das tried, used and applied Udhi in several cases and diseases like scorpion-bite, bodily pains and injuries caused from fall, polio, etc. and found it the most effective medicine, Shri K. N. Baman from Ahmedabad reports that his urine trouble abated after taking Udhi-mixture.
The above cases are only illustrative and not exhaustive in the series. These above examples which are taken after Baba's samadhi clearly indicate, unequivocally vouchsafe and authoritatively lay down that Baba's grace is more active during the present day than before His samadhi. His Udhi's power is the only reliable medicine for all time.
In a nutshell, Shri Sai Baba of Shirdi is more alive to-day than when He was in Dwarakamayee in flesh and blood.
PURUSHOTHAMA DAS.
Baba's own point of view always was that he was Narayana, that he was Kabir, etc.—always spending out His energy for promoting the best interests of others 'Paropakaraya Satham Vibuthaya". It is for blessing others that Saints live or take birth after birth especially as a guru—Sadguru. He declared himself bound to look after the spiritual interests of his devotees in their birth after birth until he could take them on to their goal, i.e to the feet of the Almighty.
