Pearls of Devotion

71. Om Shri Sai Bhaktajana Hridayaalayaaya Namah

[Salutations to Lord Sai who dwells in the heart of the bhakta.]

We all know that Sai Baba dwells in everyone’s hearts. Baba is enshrined in your heart and my heart.

Baba’s teachers, Thammi Raju and Manchi Raju were well aware of Baba’s divinity. They visited the house of Baba’s brother to have darshan of Baba. Once when Thammi Raju’s wife offered salutations to Baba, He blessed her and said that she need not worry about anything and will clear all her burdens. He gave her saffron rice as prasad. Once, she had to go out of the house and hence left her child with other children from the neighbourhood. She encouraged them to sing Sai bhajans and told them to take sugar as prasad. The children had darshan of shirdi Baba. Baba also accepted the sugar prasad and gave it to the children. The boy rushed to call his mother to witness the event. By then, the vision of Shirdi Baba had disappeared. Later, at Puttaparthi when they saw Sai Baba, He told the mother that she need not be sad that He was not at home when she returned. Baba is omnipresent, He is always there! The pure devotion of the children made Baba appear in His physical form.
