Last night i got a good mare and sai came to my dream (on last night), usuallu he comes on thu day night dreams. Last night he gave me darshan along with his both eyes opened and had a bujji ganapathi on his left shoulder. That is really really a good darshan for me.

Last Friday, my gang of friends at office, were planning a lunch-out. so we were discussing of all the possible places we could go.. most of them were already visited by us. Among the ones talked about, in one restraunt, when u sit at the centre table and eat, inside, u can see a huge Portrait of Baba.. so, i personally thought to myself if we go there it would be nice.. but since we have all been there many times, my friends were suggesting a new place. so, finally the place was deicded and all of us were getting ready to go there. suddenly, i somehow felt that it would b nice if we go to the same place wheer Baba's picture is there.. and luckily.. the place where we decided to go seemed to have no reservations to accomodate all of us and so we had to go.. to this restraunt with Baba's pciture.. no other go. I was very happy  i thought Baba planned it that way..

and we reached thsi restnt happily.. and even if we stand or sit, all we can see is only HIS feet.. because that portrait is quiet big and is inside one of the cabins there. so, as soon as we entered had a good darshan of HIS Feet.. and enjoyed the sumptuous meal.. and wehn we were about to leave.. wondered, if i shuld walk inside to see the full portrait.. now, not until i go to the wash-area can i cross this cabin and only then i can get HIS darshan. and in a group.. i was a little hesitant to walk all the way to that end.. so as to see HIM.. somehow, everyone started and i aslo started along with them.. and veen before leaving i stood at that place and saw.. again only HIS feet. anyways left.

and we reached office and as soon as we reached, the news we got was about the bomb blasts. one blast was almost at the restnt where we were about to go. i thought it was only Baba who diverted our paths and brought us to HIS care..

and today early morning, i got a wonderful dream. as if iam at the same restnt and i bend down to see HIS feet there.. meanwhile, the restnt people are asking me what am i doing and wat i want. i dont say anything but i just bend down just like i did that day to see HIS feet.. but guess what.. as soon as i bend down hoping to see HIs feet, what i see is HIS Face.. i could see it clearly.. was wonderful!!

i am soo happy after that dream. because, that friday also i bent down and could see only HIS feet, but in the dream, got a wonderful darshan.

thank you Saimaaa.. i just lovvvvvvvvvvvvvve YOU..

OM SAI RAM!

I grew up in a family that believes Sai Baba.I also believed in him true to my heart ,but for every small hurdle i used to call his name and try forgetting putting my part in the work or trying to resolve the hurdle.Later i understood ...one should be serious in the effort with SHRADDHA & SABURI.


One night my Husband suddenly suffered from heart problem ,at the very moment ,instead of getting scared i prayed Lord SAI with all my heart.......To my belief my husband got right treatment at the right time,right place.


I also realised that one should fulfill all the prayers like reading parayanam etc...after BABA has bestowed his blessings on you.


JAI GURU DEVADUTTA!!!

Jai Sai

I have so many experiences of Shirdi Sai Nath in my life. I am thinking that baba has the power to change someone's luck if his devotee has full faith in him.
I started my devotion for baba since I was 12 years old. I was brought up and raised in a middle class family. when I was 18 years old my father lost his job and around two years we faced very bad time, we lost all of our savings but my mother had immense faith in Sai nath maharaj. Eventually, I lost my faith in baba when we were facing that bad financial situation but my mother told me that baba is testing us. It was only baba who helped us,and my father got a new job. With baba's blessings we bought a new flat.
With baba's support and blessings, I got admission in M.B.A. My mother started searching a good spouse for me but I wanted to help my parents financially and I knew that my father had no bank balance for my wedding.
I got three proposal together of the boys from well educated and well settled families, me and my family were confused to make decision that who is good for me, but I ask sai baba (I make three chits with all of their names and ask baba to guide me), I asked three times whom you like baba for me? and all the three times baba replied my husband's name, What a coincident. My husband came there from USA to got married in a very short period of time, we got engaged but at that time my family did not know that his family would like to arrange a huge wedding in just 5 days, my husband's father ask my father to arrange everything in just 5 days, they wanted a grand celebration on wedding day and ask us to give so many gifts to his family members (Like peharamani), I knew it was out of my parent's capacity but I don't know how baba arranged everything and in just 5 days I got married. Around 1000 people came in my wedding and we fulfill all of my inlaw's demands. One of my father's sister, who lives in USA came forward and helped my father and owed him money but the expenses were more then what she gave us, it was only baba who gave money for his daughter's wedding. Nothing is impossible for baba. My husband is a very nice person and I am very happy with him, now after 5 years of wedding if I think that why baba choose him for me, I am getting answers everyday when my husband loves me and take cares of my and my family in india in any situation.
Baba please stay with me for ever, give me your blessings to help poor people who need help.
Jai Sai nath

Sairam to all Shirdisai devotees,
Baba, please give me words to share my experiences with all.
I did finish my shirdisai vrat for 21 Thursdays (7 for me, 7 each for my two elder sisters) on Jun 19/08 and have many small, but life changing experiences to share with you all. I appeared one imp.8 hr. licensing Exam and the whole night before the exam, I couldn’t sleep. So, I joined my husband who was reading sai devotees experiences on the net and heard the mantra OM SAI NAMO NAMAH, SHREE SAI NAMO NAMAH, JAI JAI SAI NAMO NAMAH, SADGURU SAI NAMO NAMAH! During the exam, this mantra kept on ringing in my mind. I thought, I should concentrate on exam but I couldn’t stop myself as if it was stuck in my mind. & I kept on singing for all 8 hrs... During the lunch break, I was praying BABA and one of my new friends whom I met on the exam center gave me BABA’S darshan on her cell phone page. The exam was multiple choices. The questions for which I didn’t know the answers, I clicked B, A, B, A in a sequence and I passed!!! Just b’cos of BABA’S blessings.
During this 21 Thursdays, I was applying for jobs as well and believe it, I used to get call either from agencies or from employer on every Thursday only. After all this, a thought came to my mind that why Baba is busy in me only and He is not taking care of my sisters. I remember, that was Thursday in India, I got call from my eldest sister saying that God saved my brother in law from car accident. My elder sister also called me on the same day and told me that they came to know in time about the short circuit in their shop which would have caused lots of damage to them. I thanked shirdibaba for this.
We own a house in Canada, which was available for rent, believe it, we got tenant who is Sai devotee that too, without any advertisement.
Though BABA did so much for us, I was getting very impatient and also feeling sad that Baba is not with me in finding a job for me. As after passing exam and talking to so many people for job, I couldn’t find any. But it is His kripa, I got a very good job offer after I finished my 21 Thursdays, on Thursday,July 10 only and I accepted it as His Prasad.
We go to Bhajans on every Thursday, and on 21 st Thursday (Jun 19/08), the flower dropped down from Baba’s photo during my Bhajan. The Thursday when I got offer, the flower dropped down from Ganesha’s Idol during my bhajan. He gave me indication to go ahead and join.My husband also started fasting on Thursday, he also got very good experiences. My both kids (age 10, 6) believe in Him lot. I learnt to believe that if we follow his teachings shraddha and saburi , no matter what, He is there for us always and everywhere. I thank shidibaba for being with me and my family all the time. May He bless us with deep,deep faith in Him and lots of patience!!! OM SAI

K.Parvathi - hyderabad,India   
I went to Shirdi for the first time in March 1992. Since then my mind was always filled with His memories.It was a Gurupurnima day,14th (Tuesday)of July 1992. My family members went to sleep. After I finished my kitchen work , I just laid down on the floor on a mat ,without bolting the front and the back door.And I slipped into deep sleep.It was 2.30 am. I was sleeping with my back against the floor(my face facing to the roof), usually I never sleep in this posture. Either I sleep to my rightor left. I opened my eyes, I was semi-conscious. I saw Shirdi Sai standing at my front door near the threshold of the door.He was a medium height person with kafni just below his knees. His kafni was torned on the right hand sleeve and near the wrist.His turban knot was not to His left side of the head (which is usually pictured in almost all the photos), but to His right.His joli is hung to His right shoulder, and not to the left. He was looking at me, and I too was staring at Him. But, when I came to my senses I was afraid and my body hair stood straight. As I was scared I started caaling my husband who was sleeping near me. For the first call His appearance became little lighter, and still lighter for the second and finally His appearance disappeared once for all. I started crying for He has left that place.It was a miracle that involuntarily the front door was kept open for His coming.One more observation was that the full moon brightness was extraordinarily bright. My husband said I am quite lucky to have SAI's darshan.Really, even today I think that my life is blessed with His darshan and recollect the memories of the pleasant events during His darshan.Though I am facing many problems and in neck deep difficulties from all directions of life.Prabably, I am being paid for my past birth sins.
May Sai bless all the helpless people.

Sujata - Chennai, India   
Om Sri Sai Baba Namaha!! I would like to share my experience with all of you. My late mother was a great devotee of Sai Baba. At New Delhi, she often took me for Sai Bhajans at her friend's house after my school hours. Soon I was attached to Sai photos and became a devotee to Him. (a) When I was 8 or 9 yrs old, former Prime Minister Smt. Indira Gandhi was arrested and sent to jail. As I was fond of Indira Gandhi, I prayed Sai to release her from jail. Within one hour, she was released from jail. I was very happy and thanked Sai for His help. (b) When I was 10 or 11 yrs old, news spreaded that sky lab would destory the earth. I became very anxious and prayed Sai to save our lives. After one hour, sky lab fell on the sea and saved the people of the earth. I thanked Sai for His help. (c) Last week (on my birthday) my daughter's school bag fell down while cycling to school in the morning. Her bag consisted of new books, house key, Rs. 10/- and rain coat. She informed us only in the evening. We searched everywhere and unable to find the bag. I was very upset for three days and my office friend asked me the reasons. I told her the whole story. She told me that we should pray Sai to help us. Within four hours, my husband sent sms to me that he got school bag. I was very thrilled and thanked Sai. I vowed that I would go to temple with my daughter on Saturday. We went to Sai temple yesterday (19th July) and thanked him. I was prayed Sai to get my husband a very good job at Chennai itself. I hope Sai will help my husband to get one soon. Oh Sai Baba, please help my husband to get his job soon. Please, Sai Baba, please. I told my husband that if he got his job by Sai Baba, I would definetely go to Sai temple every Thursday without fail. Om Sai Baba, Om Sai Baba, Om Sai Baba.

Yesterday on the account of GURU POORNIMA i went to sai temple by 05:00 AM in the morning. on this auspacious day sai made me know the importance of guru in everyones life.

I used to go for tuitions in my degree, today whatever i am, its because of my tuition sir. He taught me everything and helped me get good percentage in my degree. it been 2 years since i completed my degree ansd after passing out i did not even call my sir neither i met him.

Yesterday in the morning in sai temple i was shocked to see my tuition sir beside me, i was feeling ashamed to speak with him as i did not even call him for past 2 years. with lot of courage i spoke with him , he was very dissapointed. i could make out from my face. i was feeling ashamed of myself, i was feeling guilty. sai made me realise the imp of guru and i did not give respect to my guru. Thanks sai for making me realise, going forward i will never forget the people who have helped me get where i am now.....i have decided i will change myself....from this moment i am going to breathe a new lease of life, i am going to quit all my negetive thoughts and will live life in a gud way...thanks sai once again...
om sai raam.

In my childhood many a times my parents planned to go to Shirdi but we could never make it. Once in my graduation, I visited Baba temple near my college and it so happened that a woman handed me book which had to be completed with "Om Sai" for about 1008 times or so. Although I took it hapily, I never knew what to do and how to proceed. I kept it to myself for a very long time.

Once I started writing the book and I took long to complete (just started filling in my free time). The day I finished writing, I never thought that I am going to visit Shiridi, so I have deposited that in hundi in a nearby temple.

To my surprise, we visited Shiridi within a week after I have put that book in hundi. Till that day how many ever times we planned it always failed. But that first time, we never had a plan, but it just happened. It could be a coincidence, but somehow I never forget that.

Thanks Sai! It was so peaceful at Shirdi temple. I will never forget the first time I saw your shrine at Shirdi...it was amazing, peaceful and it made me happy.

Devotee Experience - Mrs. R.N.Kumar (Nice one)-Hetal Patil

This is another incident of Shirdi Sai Baba which His devotee wants to share......

Last year I had the fortune to go to Shirdi during Rama Navami. Its my practice to read the Sundara Khandam during the 9 days of Ram Navami and on a Thursday evening during Ram Navami , my friend Pushpa called and asked me to go with her to Shirdi the next day and said we will leave early morning and return the same evening. We live in Mumbai. My immediate reaction was, I am reading the Sundara Khandam and how can I go? But then I realised I can get up early say by 3:00 am and finish my pooja , so I immediately accepted and we left the next morning after I finished reading the Sundara Khandam and had excellent darshan at the temple. Since we keep the cell phones off inside the Sanctum Sanctorum, I came out and phoned my husband in Mumbai and conveyed to him that we had excellent darshan and very fulfilling. Within about 10 minutes after that I got a call on my cell and the name came was that of my friend Rekha from Bangalore, who is a staunch Baba devotee, blessed by Baba many times and she had just visited me in Mumbai about 10 days prior to that and I was surprised to receive her call.

So my first sentence to her was what a timing Rekha..... cause I thought she must have called Mumbai and having known I am in Shirdi, had called me. But to my surprise she said that she did not call Mumbai but was just sitting and reading the newspaper when she heard Baba telling her in Marathi "Thila Phone kar “meaning “You phone her. She asked "Khonala Phone karun" meaning whom should I phone . Then she heard Baba saying "Tujhi Maitrin aahe na Mumbai madhe thila phone kar” meaning “Your friend is there in Mumbai , you phone her” and she said so I am calling you. I just could not believe and tears started rolling from my eyes. I was really blessed by Baba and my friends also were very surprised and happy and that Baba has blessed all of us. Even now I remember that event and thank Baba for this. My Pranams to Baba.

Mrs. R.N. Kumar

MAY BABA BLESS ALL.

SNEHA

As you talk about your experiences i also have experienced Sai's presence in my life. Whenever I have any problem in my life I read Sai Sacharitra and in the adhyay which i read i find the solution for my that problem. In Sacharitra they have mentioned about some slokas of Bhagvad Geeta in many of adhyays (like according to Bhagvad geeta) SO whenever i used to read Sacharitra, i used to feel that maybe someday i shud read Bhagvad Geeta, but then second thought used to come to my mind that Geeta is in Sanskrit and I wont understand. But i felt I shud read. One saturdaymy husband I went to S.V. Temple in Malibu, CA. Initially we did not have plan of going but anyways we went. ON the way it was raining very heavily. I thought we can't reach but somehow we managed to get there. Once we reached there, we got from the car and came towards the entrance of the temple, suddenly one stranger came from somewhere. He first gave a small Bhagvad Geeta and a self realization book to my husband and then he gave a big Bhagvad Geeta As it is book to me and said this is for you. He handed the book and before i cud react he vanished. And the important thing is book is in English. I really believe that it is Baba's gift for me which i will cherish lifelong. Baba makes me his presence felt in my life by always helping me. I know he is within me. I talk to him, I feel him and yes i feel I am blessed one. Thanks Baba for everything that you have given me and my husband and blessed. Be with us forever.

JAI SREE SAI RAM!

Sairam to my Saifamily
I just wanted to share what miracles happened in my life which gave me strong faith in SAIMA & encouragement towards life & which made me to correct many mistakes which i have done. I have experienced many miracles in my life from the time i am reading saisathcharita. With this miracle i promised Saima that i will tell this Baba's leela to every one. Saima helped me a lot in my education.I am an average student & i prepare for exams in last moment.i always used to get scolded from my mom then to i used to behave the same. From my Inter level Saima helped me.My inter 2nd year i was facing problem with my physics & chemistry paper i concentrated more on maths i was fond of maths, i had too much interest in maths & i used to do maths always & didnt prepare for these two papers properly i thought i will fail but with Saima's grace i cleared those subjects my mom was praying for me that time i was not a devotee like how i am now but i used to go to temple bow before Saima. Then with Baba's grace i have joined BCA & started reading better than my Inter level my mom was happy with me.But when i was in final year i was facing problem with java subject & i was facing tension in my house keeping all this in mind i could not prepare well for my exam, whole night i was reading i did't had sleep, i was tensed, next day i went to give exam in exam hall i was fully blank. I dont know what i was doing there then i wrote some rubbish and came out.i reached home started crying didnt know what to do, i felt like ending my life.My mom was tensed seeing me then she told we will pray Baba nothing will happen to ur subject u will clear Saima is thr with u dont worry pray to Baba. Then every thrusday in college i used to check tht results have come or not, one day i saw in news paper some other branch Bcom students got zero marks then i went to college that was thrusday where i saw all in our class people every one got zero marks thn college authorities told me tht they will check out in university thy told us to come some other day. Again i went after leaving 2 weeks to check my results & i was surprised to see i have cleared my paper many people failed, i was with tears of happiness called my mom told her she thanked Baba, during those days she was doing Saisathcharita parayan even i started but didnt finished but my mom finished parayan once she used tell me about Shevedekar who experienced Baba's leela when Baba was alive, how baba helped him to clear his paper even he didnt do well but prayed Saima with full devotion. when i came out of the college after seeing my result i was very happy near my vehical i met a fakir where he asked me for money i gave him 5/- i know he was Saima after that i never saw that man anytime.This was 2nd time were Baba showed me his presence in my life.I went to Shirdi to thank Baba & promised i will never repeate what mistake i have done before. With Saima's grace i have joined MCA my mom & Saima encouraged me to join where i was facing problem with lecturers, my mom used to do parayana when i went to college she used to finish her household work sit for parayan, she told me always what ever problem u face say SAI SAI SAI SAI Saima will help u in some or other way, same thing happen i started reading well than before as i promised Saima before & problems with lecturers was some how getting solved by Saima's grace sometimes Saima used to come like external examiner & helped me it was all SAIMA"S GRACE i was blessed by Baba's grace. But we had lot of problems in my house but baba helped me to come out of those problem but in final year i could not write 2papers well & i got back i was very upset but i felt it is my fault so i should say sorry to Saima & read well but problems in my house increased to such a extent & i have health problem which made me very sad, and i had project of final sem where will lot of struggle i got a company with Saima's grace but company created lot of problem they didnt taught us so i was concentrating on project whole night & day i was with that project i struggled a lot for project bcoz i was tensed for project but at the end of my sem i didnt prepare properly for my 2 backlog subjects & i landed in problem my mom used to scold me a lot for this but i didnt listen to her i told her with attiude that project is imp bcoz of this kind of attiude i landed in a problem exams where near, during exam dates we were shifting our house i requested dad pls dont shift house at this time he didnt listen & many other problems in my house ultimately i landed in big problem before 1 week i started preparing i was tensed for 2 papers & felt it was better i could have listen to mom, (never ignore what mom tells u) i felt like even Saima is angry on me bcoz i didnt listened to my mom.
Then i went to exam whole week i prepared day & ngt before exam may be one day before i opened a website where if v ask questions to Baba we will get that answer it was from the questions & ans by Shirdi Sai Baba book. I asked Saima what will happen to my papers i got ans u will not do anything it will be grace of Baba only. Seeing this i was surprised & i felt i will write my papers well & it will be Baba's grace. I went next day for exam there i went to examination hall will gud encouragement & gud attitude that i will do it this time well as i was nearing examination hall i was feeling low i was depressed & thinking i will fail before writing my exam i was with negative thoughts, thn i went inside the hall & i was blank nothing inside my head seeing tht question paper & i was feeling week not able to write not able to think i felt like leaving the examination hall at tht time, i started praying to Saima pls help me i always carry a pen with saima's pic i was seeing tht still i could not come out of negative thoughts in my mind i wrote somethg what all i could recollect but i was sure i will flunk lose one year & i have to live my life with guilt. I started crying as soon i came out of my exam hall,i was very upset & ashamed of my self, told my mom she started scolding whats wrong why u did like tht what made u do this etc: Then myself & mom v decided to do parayana.Then next day i prayed saima give me strength & encouragement to write another paper well, i always listen to saibhajans i remembered one bhajan MERE SAI MERE SAI KARTHEE MERI NAYA PAR whole exam i was singing this bhajan & wrote the exam i remembered everything what i read & i had strong will that i will do well & i did it.i wrote that paper very well will Saima's grace.Before that exam actually i had kept my book from which i was reading on silky's(my pet dog) hand she smell it, it was like Baba blessed me before my second paper, i strongly believe that in my silky's heart Saima resides.I told my mom she was very happy but i was worried for 1st paper which i did rubbish.I was very frustrated all these days.
Then i started parayan, v shifted our house so there was lot of work at home so could not do parayan properly i vowed Saima that i will do parayan 20 times but could not didnt even finished once i was tensed what will happen? i was always busy with house hold work or some other problem at home but i started parayan and i was 36chap that night i opened saisansthan website saw Saima thr and open results website to the wonders of wonders i have cleared both the subjects and got good marks more than what i expected. It was Saima who corrected my paper THANKYOU SAIMA SADA APKA HATH MERE SAR PAR HO
I felt i am blessed & i have promised SAIMA i will publish this leela & what vows i have taken i will fullfill it & complete the parayan as a wote of thanx to Saima. SAIMA MADE MY LIFE.I also promised SAIMA that i will always think positive & be brave in sad time i will not mix personal life with professional life.
Workhard & leave everything on SAIMA. Now i am applying for jobs and with Saima's grace i will get. Saima is always there with me many people have discouraged me never trusted on me but Saima is always there with me. I always thank my mom & my bro who always supported me who are gifted to me by SAIMA thy are there with me in my sadness & happy times, supported me always,loved me from the bottom of their hearts.I have learnt from them what is true devotion.SAIMA IN EVERY BIRTH I SHOULD BE UR CHILD if i am born as an animal also i should be ur child SAIMA.
