"Though I AM here I know what you do beyond seven seas".
SAI BABA
BABA's omniscience is a Godly characteristic, His forecast, prediction about the present and future, and reading of minds of the people never failed. He could tell well in advance the dangers and evil effects of the day and the future to the devotees who came to him and at the same time offered practical solution, and precautionary measures to be taken, through HIS unique and wonderful directives and suggestions.
Let a man be farway, he cannot escape from the gaze of SAI is substantiated in the following examples.
Sri Noolkar a sub-judge of Pandharipur came to SHIRDI to improve his health. BABA, blessed him and he left SHIRDI. A pleader from Pandharipur came to BABA fell on his feet and offered Dakshlna without being asked for. BABA said very surprisingly that how cunning the people are? They fall at the feet and offer Dakshina, inwardly abuse and speak ill of others at the back. Then the pleader said to Kaka Saheb Dixit that BABA's remarks were fully applicable to him and were correct. SHIRDI is some three hundred miles away from Pandharipur. BABA by his omniscience revealed the discussions that took place in bar association at Pandharipur about the learned Sub-Judge The pleader made critical estimate of the Sub-Judge's visit to SHIRDI. The pleader was put to shame and thought that be should not speak ill of others.
In 1910 Lala Lakshmi Chand who saw Baba surrounded by Bhaktas in a dream was astonished to see the same figure in a photo placed before the audience by Das Ganu while performing kirtan, He was coming to SHIRDI on his way he inquired with some fellow passengers about BABA. They informed him that SAI BABA was a great Saint. When he came near he saw SAI whose face tallied with the person in his dream. BABA said "You cunning fellow where was the need for you to ask others about ME? Is your dream not real? Lakshmi-chand felt very deeply about BABA's omniscience and begged pardon.
In Burhanpore, a lady saw BABA at her door asking for Kichidi. She informed her husband and both Came to SHIBDI and stayed for (14) days worshipping BABA. Due to some unavoidable reasons she could not offer Kichidi all these days. On fifteenth day she came to BABA with kichidi. BABA who knew all about this was anxiously waiting for her offering, HE left out all other dishes offered by devotees and ate kichidi happily. This shows BABA's love foe his devotees.
Megha of Viramgaon was an orthodox Brahmin and a staunch devotee of Lord Shiva. On his way to SHIRDI he thought that SAI-BABA was a muslim, and why should he bow before him? When became" near, BABA angrily uttered go away, Why to meet him when he lose his caste. Megha wondered as to how baba knew about what was passing in his mind on the way to shirdi.
Once BABA told a richman who came to him for Brahma Jnana that there were rupees two hundred and fifty in his pocket. On counting the gentleman found exactly the same figure. He fell on BABA's feet for his omniscience.
Shri Harishandra. Pitale came to SHIRDI with his family. He placed his sick son on baba's feet and prayed for health. Mrs. Pitale wept bitterly. BABA said 'have patience* and ordered to go to their lodge. Pitale's family became desperate and came to the lodge with a heavy heart and doubted whether the boy would be protected and saved by BABA. See the miracle of our Sad Guru, the boy recovered immediately. BABA who read the mind of the couple said "all your doubts and fear might have calmed down". Saints like GOD depend on the devotee who surrender whole heartedly and pray with strong faith.
Once in 1916 Shri Shantamm Nachra Debathari forget to give Annas two given by his friend Shri V. S. Samant. BABA reminded Shantaram who gave him and asked baba's pardon.
Shri Bapu Saheb Booty who was at SHIBDI got a prediction from a great astrologer named Naiia Saheb Dengale that the day was worst and most unfavourable. BABA who was omniscient told Booty that he need not be afraid of death, 'Allah will save him'. As soon as Booty entered the house he saw a snake. He was frightened and prayed .BABA. The snake soon disappeared. This is how BABA saved, the life of his devotee.
Once BABA had beaten the ground with his Satka and asked Abdul to bring lantern. Amir Shakkar who sat near BABA took fear, when the light was brought, Amir saw a snake moving towards him BABA gave the timely warning and saved Amir.
Once BABA asked Bala Saheb Miriaker whether he knew about Lamba Babu viz., serpent. The later did not understand BABA's word and left SHIRDI with Shama as per the advice of BABA, They reached Chaitali at 9-00 P.M. and encamped in Marathi temple. A snake sat unobserved on a portion of Miriakar's dhotor. The peon brought a lantern and shouted serpent, serpent. Bala Saheb was terribly frightened. SHAMA was also greatly surprised, The snake did not bite. Then they remembered the words Lamba Baba of BABA and thanked for saving life.
Sri B.V. Deo the Mamlatedor in Thana Disrrict was taken away by surprise to hear that Sri SAI BABA as promised came and participated in religious ceremony in guise of a Sanyasi along with two. Nobody recognised him. Here on that particular day the devotees were with BABA in Dwaakamai only. They could hardly believe. This incident shows BABA's all pervasiveness. Living in SHIRDI, BABA assumed different forms and increased the faith of devotees by his indescribable powers.
Once a devotee from Goa sent (300) three hundred mangoes to SAI BABA. BABA kept four mangoes in the pot and all the others were given to SHAMA. Nobody knew as why BABA retained four mangoes. Then Damu Anna who had no issues came to BABA. He was told by astrologer that he had no issues at all in his horoscope. He became very disappointed and prayed BABA. BABA who expected him and had already reserved four mangoes, handed over to him with instructions to see that the four mangoes were to be eaten by his junior wife and she will have four daughters. baba's words proved and the astrologer's prediction failed.
Once a Sudhak of yoga who had no peace of mind had come to BABA and observed baba eating bread with raw onion. He doubted whether this ordinary man could solve his problem. BABA who read his mind uttered that he who has the power to digest onions should eat and none else. The Yogi's hair stood on all over his body. BABA seeing his feeling and repentance called him and blessed.
It is very interesting to note that one had to stay at SHIRDI as BABA wished and had to leave when told. Staying and leaving depended upon the will of BABA. Those who disobeyed BABA's instructions suffered and wore unsafe. The below instances proved the words of
Once Tatya Kote Patil asked BABA to permit him to leave for Kopargaon Bazar. BABA did not agree and said not to make haste. Seeing the anxiety BABA asked him to take Shama along with him. This also he did not oblige and drew his Tonga. After going to some distance the Tonga fell down., and Tatya received minor injuries.
On another occasion Tatya while going to Khalhar village faced the similar accident. He remembered SAI and felt for not having obeyed HIS advice.
Once a European gentleman was advised to leave SHIRDI the next day. Without caring BABA's words he left the place the same day in a Tonga, Seeing a bicycle in front; the horses frightened and ran fast and the tonga fell down. The gentleman sustained injuries. He was adm1-tted in Kopargaon hospital.
Kaka Maha Jani came to SHIRDI from Bombay with the Sole intention of staying for about a week. When he prostrated BABA told him to leave SHIRDI the next day only. Kaka Maha Jani reluctantly left; As soon as he came to office he was informed that his boss was feeling his absence very badly for some official purpose. He said BABA's word was law.
BABA's omniseienee is beyond any doubts. He gave Darshan to the devotees who surrendered to him at far off places and dragged them to SHIRDI. Mrs. Sapitnekar Kakaji Vaidya of Nasik and Panjabi Rama-lal of Bombay are a few examples out of many to substantiate the above-Now a few words about BABA's Remniscience. The story of two goats and Veerabhadrappa and Chenabassappa is well known in the SHRI SAI SATCHABITA. BABA narrated the previous life in the above two Cases and explained the history of previous births as human beings.
Hemadpant says that the accumulation and restoration of merits in past make us fortunate and lucky in the present janma, to have the darshan and close association of great saints. Devotees Don't know but the omnipotent knows,
Once BABA told Shama very affectionately "You were with ME during seventy two generations. BABA said unless there is some relationship nobody goes any where". He proved the saying of Lord Shri Krishna in BHAGAVADGITA "I and you have passed through many rounds of births. I remember them all but you don't know them".
