Sri Sai Amrit Vani and Prayan of Sai Satcharitra

श्री साई अमृत वाणी एंड परायण ऑफ़ साई सत्चरित्र
५थ् जून २००८
जै साई राम
If one person has a feeling or see a thing, you can say, it is his /her illusion, but many people see the same thing and have the same feeling, what you will call it. Today Thursday many devotees felt the presence of Baba in the white cloth, that too not one time but 2-3 times.
There was a huge gathering of devotees this Thursday, more than expected and we have to place an order for extra boxes of bhog after the recitation of Sri Sai Amrit Vani. Some devotees even had to sit near the shoes and chappals. But today the recitation of Sri Sai Amrit Vani and Prayan of Sai Satcharitra was very soothing and peace giving and tension relieving and without any disturbance in-between.

Last week I attached a few Photos of that day to give the feeling to devotees attending the recitation of Sri Sai Amrit Vani and the prayan of Sri Sai Amrit Nidhi, in absencia as attending in person, Today I am appending only one photo of charans of Baba from which water oozes and it is collected in a Thali. This water is distributed among the devotees. Another photo of Baba which is in on the wall of hall, Generally Udi starts oozing from it. Words RAM, SHAM and OM are formed on it with Udi.

I have already sent all the letters received for prayers and for the recitation of Sri Sai Amrit Vani except the confidential ones, but they have been listed, for the sack of acknowledgement. The letters were in two lots ( 84
+16 Devotees). If you don’t find your letter in them or in the list, it might have gone along with the spam letters, which are also received in bulk quantity. To avoid it, please write a relevant text in the subject. Mrs. Gupta prayed for all the devotees .

This Thursday the 5th June 2008, we enjoyed the following Leelas of Baba (of Shirdi). It may look repetition, but these are the leelas of Baba.

1. Udi started oozing from the different photos and Statue of Baba at different stages of time from Monday onwards. Hindi words `RAM' `SHAM' `OM' were formed with Udi on one photo in the mandir and another photo on the wall. One photo of Baba from the hall is appended.

2. This Thursday also, the Holy Water started oozing from the Charans from Thursday early morning. A Thali was placed in the night of Wednesday itself, as water starts oozing from the early morning. Thali was emptied several times. The taste of water was similar to gulab jal and kewara mix. This water was also given to the devotees and again the Thali was filled with water. Photos of this leela have already been posted in the photo section of the yahoogroup. One photo is attached.

3. Lap of Mrs. Gupta was filled with lots of Udi during the prayers. Udi was in the folds of the falls of the Sari.

4. It has also become regular leela of Baba that many other devotees also had Udi on them, in their laps, their shirts or cloths.

5. Several devotees had Udi in the books of Sri Sai Amrit Vani.

6. Bhog , which was placed before HIM was partially eaten. Part of Bhog was on the lips of photo and statue of Baba. Different items were there on lips in different photos. Parts of the remains in the box were given to the devotees who offered that item of bhog to Baba.

7. Almost all the boxes of Bhog, which were kept on the table were blessed with Udi. Udi was there even on the boxes which were down below the other boxes.

8. The feeling of Presence of Baba was very strong and many devotees felt HIS presence.

9. Many photos, papers and documents etc. which were placed before Baba and the same were blessed within no time.

Jai Sai Ram

RECENT REAL SAI LEELA'S --

Some Sai Devotee sent me the following email...this really shows how SAI takes care of his devotee
RECENT REAL SAI LEELA'S THAT I HEARD
Today only a very ardent believer of sai ram told me about the following two beautiful incidents,it' s very interesting, so read on,like sai ram wants us to always talk about his leela's i'd like to share them with all you blessed people of sai:1. A bhakta carrying 2 lac of rupees,came staight to the sai ram mandir very close to my house, and asked the pandit ji to keep this cash as sai ram's own money.The pandit ji said that it would be best if he could deposit the money with the cashier outside,as was the norm.But the man insisted on the pandit ji to take the money right away as this belonged to sai ram,the pandit got anxious and asked the man as to why and what brought him here with the money...The man said,long time back,his son was applying to be established in the U.S. as a doctor,for which he required a lot of money.The man had only 35,000 r.s. in his bank account,so naturally he went looking for help.He went to all his family and friends,but none came to his rescue,everyone made silly excuses and refused the poor fellow.So disheartened as he was from the world,with all his heart and soul he prayed to sai ram for desprate help.He thought atleast he should send away the amount that was there in his bank account.So he went to his bank,asked the accountant there to give him the 35,000 r.s. left in his account.TO HIS SURPRISE THE ACCOUNTANT TOLD HIM THAT THERE WERE 2LAC R.S. IN HIS ACCOUNT.He obviously thoght that this was impossible and asked the accountant to check again,but it was true that there were 2 lac r.s.Ok,so he took the anmount,left for his home,kept wondering and looking if someone from the bank moght come back and tell him that there must be some mistake.He couldn't believe it,who could??He didn't sleep for many nights but was relieved of the pressure when he used those 2 lac rupees eventually for his son.Some years later,the man said,that he saw baba in his dream.Baba asked him if everything was fine with him and his son,the man said yes sai ram i'm most thankful that we are fine...
then baba finally asked him"then pls return back my 2 lac rupees"therefore the man had come today to return those 2 lac rupees which baba had lent at the most needful hour!three cheers for sai ram..hip hip hurray,hip hip hurray,hip hip hurray!amazing leela wasn't it,i couldn't believe my ears when i heard it!jai sai ram
My Sai Is Grate
