Pearls of Devotion
68. Om Shri Sai Bhakta-Priyaaya Namah
[Salutations to Lord Sai who is loved by devotees.]
Sai Baba is loved, cherished and worshipped by His devotees.
Two young men from Mysore district yearned to have darshan of Baba. They even borrowed money and visited Puttaparthi. Baba lovingly talked to them and chided them for borrowing money. He told that they could have His darshan at their own place. The youngsters eagerly learnt a lot of bhajans from Prashanthi Nilayam. They returned home and performed bhajans every single day at the Shiva temple in their village. A wondrous event happened! In a few weeks the forms of Sathya Sai Baba was visible in the idol of Shiva on one side, and the form of Shirdi Baba was formed on the other side. Baba has enshrined Himself in their village for the devotees who loved Him.
