Chapter 46:::Baba's trip to Gaya
* Dhikxit had arranged for the sacred thread ceremony of his son at Nagpur,
while Nana Chandodkar's elder son's marriage had been scheduled at Gwalior at
the same time.Both invited baba to participate .Baba told them to take Shama
for the functions and said : After Shama visits Kasi and Prayag , we will be
ahead of him at Gaya.' Watch out for Baba's miracle.After attending the
functions and visiting Kasi and Prayag,Shama reached Gaya . A Brahmin guide
[Gayawallah] took him from the rail station to his house. On entering that
house,Shama started weeping with ecstasy, on seeing the big photo of Sai baba
there.[' We will be ahead of him at Gaya'.] Further discussions revealed that
it was the same picture that Shama gave to Gayawallah with baba's permission
when the Gayawallah visited Shirdi ten years ago. The thrilled Gayawallah
accorded royal treatment to Shama.
* Once Baba bought two goats from a herd at four times their price, gave
lentil to eat, affectionately patted them and then released them in the
herd.People objected to the price paid.Baba said that they were his friends in
the previous birth and as they killed each other over property dispute inspite
of they being brothers, they had taken birth as goats. .He added that sinceHe
recognized them in the herd that passed by and wanted to give some solace and
rest,He purchased them. He said further that as this venture was not to others
liking, He let them back in the herd.
