    (BABA'S PROTECTING HAND)

    Lord Krishna in Gita says those devotees however, who knowing no one else constantly think of me and worship Me in a disinterested way to those ever united in thought with me, I bring full security and personally attend to their needs (G-IX-22).

    Sai Baba said at His 7th saying out of Eleven sayings as I am ever living to help and guide all who come to me, who surrender to me and who seek refuge in me.

    Baba lived in the mosque Pujya Narasimha swamyji has said.

    Baba first used it as his home. It underwent a marvellous transformation by the reside­nce in it. He dug up a small cavity in its centre and deposited burning embers there and kept up the fire from day to day. That unbroken fire continues up-to-date and is known as "Dhuni Mayi" (Mother fire), that is how it is effectionately and reverentially termed by the bhaktas.

     Though, at first, Baba went about healing ailments with drugs, he soon gave up that habit and substituted the ever present ashas of that 'Dhuni' for the drugs. When any person with any trouble or grievance cameto him, he took up a bit of the ashes and presented it to the sufferer, saying "Allah Achaa Kaiegaa" which means 'God will bless and remedy'. And the villagers noted with joy and surprise the fulfilment of Baba's prophetic or blessed words in ever so many cases.

    Saipadananda Sri. Radhakrishna Swamiji said on 27-3-71. "What is wanted is complete surrender to the Lord, when only he will come to our rescue, Remember how Droupadi was saved by Him when she felt that he was her only rescuer Similarly, was the case of Gajendra. The moment he felt that he was unable to save himself through his own self-effort, there was a complete seif-surrender to the Lord who came to save him forthwith".

    Sri Hemadpant in chapter XXII of Sai Satcharta describes how a devotee of Baba was saved by Him from the Snake bite.

    Balasaheb Mirkar :

    Balasaheb Mirikar, son of Sirdar Kakasaheb Mirikar was Mamalatdar of Kopergaon. He was going on tour to Chitali. On the way he come to Shirdi to see Sai Baba, When he went to the Masjid and prostrated himself before Baba, the usual conversation regarding health and other matters commenced, when Baba sounded a note of warning as follows. "Do you know our Dwarakamai" ? As Balasaheb did not understand, he kept quiet, Baba continued, This is our Dwarakamai, where you are sitting. She wards off all dangers and anxieties of the children, who sit on her lap. This masjidmai (its presiding Deity) is very merciful, she is the mother of the simple devotees, whom she will save in calamities. Once a person sits on her lap, all his toubles are over. He who rests in her shade gets bliss. "Then Baba gave him Udi and placed His protecting hand on his head. When Balasaheb was about to depart. He again said
     

    "Do you know the "Lamba Baba" (Long gentleman), biz. serpent" ? And then closing the left first He brought it near the right elbow and moving His left arm like tha hood of a serpentj He said, "He is so terrible, but what can he do to the children of Dwarakamai, When Dwarka-ma i(iis'presiding deity) protects, what can the serpent do" ?

    All that were present, were curious to know the meaning of all this and its so reference to Mirikar, but none had the courage to ask Baba about this. Then Balasaheb saluted Baba and Left the Masjid with Shama. Baba called Shama back and asked him to accompany Balasaheb. and enjoy the chitali trip. Shama came to Balasaheb and told him that he would come with him, according to Baba's wish. Balasaheb replied that he need not come as it would be inconvenient. Shama returned to Baba and told Him what Balasaheb s-aid to him. Baba said "Alright, do not go. We should mean well and do well. Whatever is destined to happen, will happen".

    In the meanwhile Balasaheb thought over again and calling Shama asked him to accom­pany him Then Shama, going again to Baba and taking His leave started with Balasaheb in a tanga. They reached Chitali at 9 p.m. and encamped in the Maruti temple. The office-people had not come so they sat quiet in the temple, talking and chitchatting. Balasaheb wassitting on a mat reading a newspaper. His uparane (upper dhotar) was spread across his waist, and on a part of it a snake was sitting unoberseved; It began to move with a rustling sound which was heard by the peon. He brought a lantern, saw the snake and raised an alarm, 'serpent serpent'. Bala­saheb was frightened and began to quiver. Shama was also amazed. Then he and others moved noiselessly and took sticks and clubs in their hands. The snake got down slowly from the waist and it moved away from Balasaheb, it was immediately done to death. Thus this calamity which was prophesied by Baba was averted and Balasaheb's love for Baba was deeply confirmed.

    Now, I describe, my own recent experience regarding Baba's Abhay Hastha.

    On 9th Feb. 91 I got a vision of Sri. Ramachandra and on 10th the vision of an luminous bright light and well decorated horse Syam Karan On llth morning Baba prompted me to visit Sai Bandhu Sri Ashoka Bhambore. I went to his house at 9 a m. He gave me Sri Spilidis prasad and Baba's calander of 1991 in which Baba's figure is as Baba holding a japamula in his abhay hasta.

    I returned home at 10 a.m. and took my food and was taking rest. I came to know that daughter's daughter Miss Meera of 22 years old was suffering from severe diarhorea from the morning. At 11 a.m. her younger sister Roopa came to our house from her typing class but returned immediately to house withought taking food though we offered it. She sounded a calling bell at her house but there was no response, either from her sister or her mother. She went to a side window and got her sleeping mother awakned she asked about her sister Meera. When they could not find her in the hall in kitchen. They searched and found Meera lying unconsious in the bath room. Roopa with the help of neibouring lady brought Meera in a auto to our house, and took her grand mother also in the auto to the nearest nursing home. There the doctors treated Meera as an emergency case and administered oxygen and gave injections.

    As no body was in the house I stayed back and phoned to my two sons and my two sons and my daughter-in law who is also a doctor.

    In a worried mood I prayed to Baba why are you testing me. I have surrendered to you fully. What can I do. If you make me to weep, I weep if you make me laugh, I laugh.

    I am nothing

    I know nothing

    for me you are every thing

    I know only chanting

    your Holy name morning and evening.

    I sent Shirdi's udi to the nursing home to apply it on Meeras fore head it was applied.

    I began to chant Baba's name Om Sai Ram Om Sai Ram looking at the picture of Baba. By Baba's grace and blessings Meera regained her conciousness at 4 p.m. but could not speak. Doctors also pronounced that they could not give hope till 48 hours passed and she was kept by glucose drips. Her condition was precarious for 4 days on   15-2-91 evening her case became again serious. The doctors had a opinion that some food poison had entered into her stomach.

    I got her forehead applied with Udi and prayed Sai Baba with chanting His holy name. The words of H.H,  Swamy Kshavaiahjee resounded in my ears.  The Bhakta is safe in the heaven of Guru-God A. sadguru takes great care of his disciplies as  Sri  Sai  had assured".   My eye is on those who love me, whatever they  do and wherever they are. Bear in mind I am always with you whenever you think of me. If one meditates upon me I stay by his side always.-If one thinks of me and makes me his refuse. I am his doctor.  If one tastes not food without first offering it to me, I am his slave, I am bhakta Paradhina. I  will   be with you,  inside and outside you and all around you".

    From the next day her condition was being improved and on 21-2-91 she was discharged. She is keeping normal and attending to her studies.

    Our compassionate Baba saved Meera from the jaws of death.

    O Baba the savoir of inflicted and sufferers I bow to your lotus, feet.
