mere sai: gifts from baba

My family is a an average devotee of Sai baba.I have seen baba being worshipped in my house by my father but really dint feel the pull towards him.Infact i was more into practical spirituality rather than in the rut of rituals.Infact i used to think 'Who is this old man?'.And i think in May 2010 he answered this casual question that creeped in my mind.And have been answering even now.He began following me everywhere.
The same road that i travelled suddenly seemed to be filled with baba's name ie on the car, on the truck,on the shop.I heard his name every now and then.While flipping the tv channel or flipping the FM,I heard his name everywhere.The stranger sitting next to me would suddenly speak about shirdi sai baba on phone.The song running on the mobile of a colleague would suddenly play the shirdi aarti.I still remember i was once on work in a deserted place in firozabad.A tanker was standing next to our car.The driver of the tanker was playing the local songs and suddenly the shej aarti of baba started buzzing out of his deck.And you know what the time was ?It was 10 pm.I did ask the driver why did he play baba's aarti and his reply was that he himself dint know how the aarti was in his playlist.

Beloved baba's first strong pull came when i found this lovely picture of baba lying at a bus stop.Now the co incidence was that it was the first time that i was waiting for some one at this bus stop.It was afternoon time and there was no one at this bus stop.My friend came and we both were about to leave and i dont know for what reason i turned back and i found this photo of baba.And then friends told me that i must visit shirdi.Baba was calling me.

I did have a pleasant trip to shirdi and thought these co incidences would slow down.But these experiences doubled.I was once very upset on a particular thing that had happened to me and i cried taking baba's name in the night as now i was feeling his closeness.I woke up with a message on my cell saying your callertune shej aarti shirdi sai baba has been activated.I was puzzled cause i wondered how the callertune got activated.This incidence got me really close to baba and i felt as if someone was watching every move of mine.After this i have experienced baba's presence every moment.I always read spiritual books but i think i only read them,understood them, but i dint feel what these books actually meant.But what my guru did to me i can only feel and cant understand or express it in words wholly.Sai Sat Charitra is the most divine book that i have come acrossed.It melts my mind a little more every time i read it.I feel baba is really looking after my spiritual growth.I am the sparrow.

I was staying at a friends place and i did baba's pooja,litted the dhoop and the diya.I was in a hurry to move out so i just prayed to him quickly and told him i

lit the agarbatti for you in the evening.I moved out of the house got in the rickshaw quickly and the rick halted at the signal which was a half km away from the house and there a fakir peeps in my rickshaw gives me this agarbatti and says 'Sai baba ne bheja hai'.I was tonguetied.I took out out 10 bucks haphazardly and i placed it in his hands.
