Whenever I read about Baba's miracles automatically my eyes will start shedding tears because Baba came into my life & blessed us. Baba is my mother; He is my father & my friend with whom I used to share everything.
Until 2006 though I happen to cross a Baba's temple in Cambridge Road on my 2 wheeler I never used to step in. I just used to wonder the crowd in front of the temple & I will just go off. U know - some 1 year back my friend Sarika got a small Baba’s idol for me from Shirdi which was packed in a visible plastic cover which I had kept in my showcase as it is.
My 2nd daughter was born with nearly 70% hearing disability & with deformation of ears. But she was very beautiful & a fair skin complexion with extraordinary beautiful blonde / hair. Mentally also she was not as brilliant as her age kids. I brought her up with lot of difficulties. Among so many other small surgeries a major surgery was done for her by a doctor namely Dr. Hariharan, who is a deep devotee of Shirdi Sai Baba. There was a quite big Baba's idol in his hospital which did not impress me anyways.
My daughter was not able to finish her BA, requested me to join her for a beautician course. (She's a kind of person with servicing mentality who likes to help old people in my families in giving them a massage for their paining parts of their body, giving bath etc.,). I joined her in beautician course & after that she was working in beauty parlors for just Rs.1500/- to 2000/- per month. I planned to take loan from bank & open a small beauty parlor for her. (This idea was given by Dr. Hariharan, who was fond of my daughter & interested in her welfare)
I wanted to approach any Bank Manager to get to know how to go about for a loan. My friend Chandra (mischievous) told me that "the Manager in State of India in Indiranagar branch is a devotee of Baba U just act as if U are also a devotee of Baba so that he will help U” I asked my friend "Ok but how to act & make him believe that I too a Baba's devotee?". My friend laughed & told me "Ranju, its not a big deal. First thing what U should do is U should tell "Sairam" before even starting the conversation" I said OK & did the same. But this did not work out with that Manager at all. (Several times I have seen that if I try to pretend with anyone to get my work done - it will not happen at all absolutely). That Manager told me “your area is different & U have come here. U go & ask in your area bank only".
I did so & I got to know that for getting a loan first thing I have to rent a place to start the business for which I wanted Rs.35,000/- to pay advance as I selected a place on a main road for a cheap rent of Rs.3000/- per month. I ran pillar to rock to get this money, but nobody was ready to give me because none of them were ready to rely on my daughter's ability. At this time I was working in a school in a place called Sarjapur Road. The management transferred me to the school's trust office which was in Cunningham Road. As this place was very far from the existing place I was cribbing like hell to join the trust office. (Later on I realized that this was planned by Baba)
My niece Nithya told me that there is a Manicka Vinayagar temple in Cambridge Road who will grant any type of our prayers if we pray that we will do milk abishikam for him. As I had belief in Lord Ganesha I ran to that temple with my daughter & niece, prayed with tears to give power & strength & of course finance to start this business. While I was praying an old man doing pradhakshinam sneezed loudly & at the same time the flower garland fell from Lord Ganesha’s shoulder down which indicated a good sign for me.
After praying there we came out & my niece pointed out that Shirdi Baba's temple which was just 3 or 4 houses from this Ganesha temple on same road (the one which I used to neglect all these years) & asked me “Periamma (Badeema Or aunt) can we go there too”. I said OK & we went there. My first visit to Baba’s temple. when I entered in & when I went near Baba's statue I could feel some changes in me. Till now I don’t know how to describe that. After this, the very 1st Sunday I along with my niece went there to have darshan of Baba. Abhishekam & pooja were going on very grand with lot lots of devotees. I kept on starring at him without even flicking my eyes.
Next day (Monday) I reported in our trust office in Cunningham Road & I requested my Boss "Sir though I told U that I don’t want to come to Trust Office, I came here to help you & hence I request you to pls help me by giving a loan of Rs.35000/- which you can deduct Rs.1000/- from my salary every month." He criticized me for I told to deduct only Rs.1000/- per month & after a small argument he sanctioned my loan as per my request & I thanked him with rolling tears on my cheeks. As he has seen my daughter several times I explained him everything. That evening on way back to my house I ran to Baba's temple & fell on his feet & thanked him. I don’t know why – I wept like hell kneeling in front of him. When I went home 1st thing I did was – I took that small Baba’s idol given by my friend, removed the plastic cover, wiped him thoroughly & kept on my pooja shelf. When I’m writing this my eyes are shedding tears – U know.
Then next Thursday onwards I started going to Ganapathi temple & Baba's temple every Thursdays. Every Thursday I noticed number of devotees & ‘Q’ keep increasing & there were so many hurdles for me to visit. But I took an oath in front of Baba that whatever may be the hurdles I will come to U every Thursday till my death & U should support me to make it" As I have to come from Cunningham Road I have to pass a nearby road from this temple which made very easy for me to visit all Thursdays both the temples. And Head Offices of the Bank (SBI) from where I planned to take loan was near to Cunningham Road (All Baba's plan only) which made it easy for me to meet the bank officials whenever they called me. By Baba's grace, loan was sanctioned & I was able to successfully open the beauty parlor.
I kept the 1st invitation of the inauguration on Baba’s feet in this temple in Cambridge Road. While distributing the invitation cards I went to one of my friend’s Kumuda’s house to invite. Though twice or thrice I had already been there to see her aged mother & though there were Baba’s pictures & calendars in their house this time only I felt like touching Baba’s feet & praying. After inviting them while I was about to leave their house my friend’s bobby came running behind me with a Sai Baba’s idol in her hand covered with a visible plastic cover, little bigger than that I had in my house. This idol which she gifted me I had seen in there show case. She told me “see I want to give this to any Baba’s devotee only. I understood you are his devotee, so please take ot & keep it on the pooja shelf in your new beauty parlor”
The business in beauty parlor picked up very soon.
I started craving to go to Shirdi & when I enquired with some clients who visit my daughter’s parlor if they have any idea about how much it may cost if my daughter & myself want to go to Shirdi they used to tell different amount – while one person will tell it would be 2000/- per person the other would tell it may cost 4000/- per person. Every time I go to Baba’s temple I used to literally cry begging with him to help me to go to Shirdi at least once in my life time but to go as soon as possible. As I remembered my friend Sarika used to go to Shirdi every year with family her day I decided to find out from her how to reach there & when I contacted her she told it’ll cost Rs.800/- per person to & fro for train + stay & food it may cost 1000/- per person & I decided to go to shirdi as guided by her. From then on (Jan-2007) I started going to Shirdi every year in Jan. I only beg Baba to bless me to visit Shirdi till end of my life. 2nd time when I had been with my 2 daughters & grand daughter on way back I lost my purse with more than 7000/- rupees 2 mobile phones many gifts, my vehicles RC book, DL, original pan card, etc. This happened in the midnight. Though I cried for that moment like hell, I immediately opened Baba’s question answer book & asked why it happened like this & will I get back my back my bag. Baba said that I have done prostitution sort of mistakes & hence this is the punishment for that & I will be compensated much more than I lost. (Then I remembered my worst actions while I got into this train-I told roughly with other to remove their baggage from under our seat. I told harshly to move to their place & above all when I laid on the top berth I was peeping secretly the lower berth opposite to me where a girl & boy were lying too close in non-comprising postures which I shouldn’t have done) From then on I started behaving properly as per Baba’s wish & I was of course compensated much more than I lost. All Baba’s grace & blessings only.
As my daughter was crossing her age for marriage I started sending details about her in Matrimony websites for which I started getting responses. As I had mentioned my daughter was partially handicapped the responses I got from all were handicapped grooms only. I was totally broken. By rolling tears I took Baba’s question answer book & asked what only to do. I got a answer “U don’t simply worry about anything which is not in ur hands, but its already through by Baba” I was totally confused with this answer. But as I have strong belief & faith in Baba’s words I thought to wait & see what’s happening. After some 2 months after this when we were on way to Shirdi my 1st daughter Priya told me “Ma it’s a secret – Lavannya (my 2nd daughter) is in love with a boy for more than 1½ years & they have planned to marry with all elder’s blessings”
After Baba accepted me I started telling all my family members, relatives & friends about Baba’s great miracles. My daughters son-in-law, his brother’s wife, my sister, my mother, my close friends, etc., all started having faith with Baba & of course Baba helps & guides them.
Except the time am sleeping I keep telling inside myself "Sairam" "Sairam" "Sairam" I keep experiencing lot of Baba’s miracles. I keep reading Sai Satcharithra. While reading Baba’s miracles & the problems he faced, I used to shatter in tears telling “Oh my Baba how much pain U have undergone”. I realize its not pain for him but he wants us to learn to accept all pains to reach him.
Let us all have faith with Baba . . . praise about Baba’s life & miracles to all & keep praying "Sairam" "Sairam" "Sairam" to overcome all our obstacles. Help all needy as much as possible. Be kind to all. NEVER hurt anyone. Tell “sorry” immediately if U hurt anyone - may be younger or older to U.
