I keep going to Sai Temples always and to new temples as soon as I hear about them. I don’t fail to do pooja and abhisheka to Sai daily. He takes care of me every moment. When I had been to Injambakkam Sai Temple once I happened to see the administrators, a retired couple. I felt jealous about them for their having got such a wonderful chance to servie baba. I used to go to them and talk to them as it was a solace for me. During one of my trip to that temple, I prayed to Baba asking him to give me a chance like that couple to be of service to his temple and spend the rest of my life.
It it several years now and Baba gave me this chance this year Oct 2010. I had been to Bangalore for a relative’s house warming function. Some of my relatives told me that there is a Sai Temple which has come up nearby (Hulimao, Arikere) and we can go there and have his darshan. It was almost mid day and I agreed to go along with them. As we entered the temple it was noon arati and WOH! What a great privilege. We enjoyed the arati and after that the president made an announcement saying that they need a manager to take care of the temple. Immediately the bell rang in me. I thought it was a wonderful opportunity for me. That day was a Sunday and there was not much of crowd and inspite of that the president made the announcement the reason for which he did not know. He said he had been planning to make the announcement for 3 months and why he made on that particular day, he didn’t know. The next day I came back to Chennai and spoke to him over phone at 7 am. Normally he keeps his phone switched off during this time or does not pick up the phone. He keeps reading Sat charita during this time. Miraculously, he picked up my phone and when I expressed my intention to take up the post, He was so happy and immediately accepted my request. I went there served Baba for 1 month and came back. I had to come back because I was not able to accepted money in the form of salary from Sai temple. I told them that I will improve my status and come back to the temple to offer my services free of cost. So, Baba gave me exactly what I asked for.
Jai Ho Sai Baba
