my experience in shridhi!

[sree sai]

hi all
ia m a new member to this group!
i am  a baba devotee from childhood.i started believing him through my father and mother.
i would like to share my recent shridhi experience with u all.
i got visa in first attempt by god's grace in july 2005 and i left usa for my higher studies.my dad prayed for lord sai baba and we thought of going toshridhi after visa.as the time was short we could not go.
so when i was back to india in dec 2005 we planned to go shirdhi.
i heard reservation was tough for trains and buses as it was time for sankranthi and chirstmas holidays.
i thought still i didnot get time to visit shridhi and felt much bad and started cursing baba for not calling me.i even started cursing my dad for not making any plans for getting reservation.i didnot even go anywhere else to darshan baba as i want to darshan him at shridhi.
so finally one fine day we got tickets in aptourism bus for shridhi and i felt much happy.
me and parents started for shirdhi.i heard rush was terrific adn it is hard to get darshan.reached there finely and got refreshed.
ready to darshan baba.
i took my digital camera with me and the temple security didnot allow me inside the temple as per security rules.there is no safe place where i can put this camera.not even shop nor anywhere.lodge was 10-15 mins walk from temple.so my father told me i will put this in lodge, u can go for darsahn later me and ur mom will join the line of darshan.so i went away for darshan leaving my parents at the entrance of the temple with a bunch of flowers in my hands.
i thought they will be at the back of me somewhere in darshan lane.i came out after seeing baba and taking his blessings.rush was too much and it is taking much time.as the time is increasing people in the line are also increasing.when i came out i saw my mom standing out with camera in he rhands.i asked her and she said dad could not go to lodge as he is much tired(due to journey in bus)  and he could not go to lodge through walk to keep it there.he went for darshan and i was here standing for him and u.
i felt much bad nad it was all happened because of me bringing the camera to temple.tears started coming from my eyes and felt very bad.
my dad came out after sometime getting blessing of baba.
we got bus around 4 in the evening and dad was out around 1:30.only 2:30 hrs left and i thought darshan will be tough in these 2 hrs  and tried for specials darshans.nothing was posiible.so again i took my mom and joined in the darshan lane.rush was much.
but everything went good and my mom even got darshan of baba and we were back by 3.then we came out saw chavadi etc places and had lunch and got refreshed and got into bus by 4:30.
that moment at the temple in the afternoon i really felt very bad.becoz of me my mom could have been punished.
then i realised without baba's whole heart approval u cannot  go to shridhi and visit him.this was a lesson for me.but one thing was i could darshan him for 2 times(one time i alone and other with my mom).but we 3 could not get darsahn at once.this was all happened becoz i cursed my dad who is a big devotee of baba since long time.but the day i visited him and the dress he wore were still infront of my eyes even today.
baba forgive me for cursing u and my dad.
i love u and i want to be with u always.the reason i cursed u was i want to come to shridhi.i donot want to delay in seeing u anymore.
thanks for everything and calling me to shridhi.
i will be eagerly waiting for ur call to shridhi any no of times in future.
ur devotee-sree sai!

OM SRI SAI RAM

Dear Sree Sai, Sai Ram

Welcome to this online Sai Mandir - the Dwarakamai.

It is very nice to read about your trip to Shirdi. I pray Baba that in your nxt trip you should have pleasant Darshan along with ur parents. Going to Shirdi it self is a boon. Entire Shirdi is Baba himself. Every stone, every atom of sand of Shirdi is touched by Baba's lotus feet. Thus, entering into Shiridi itself is luck.

Baba is everywhere; there is no single part of space in this Universe, where Baba is not there. Infact, we all are in Baba. How nice to think and just imagine this!

Please do write about U and other experiences of Yours with Baba. We love to have U along with us here. Thank You Baba for sending Sree Sai here for us.

Jai Sai Ram
