I DRAW THEM TO MYSELF

A devotee objected to people going to Baba for temporal benefit e.g.,employment, money, children, cure of disease.

Sai Baba: Do not do that, My men first come to me on account of that only. They get their heart's desire fulfilled; and comfortably placed in life, They then follow me and progress further. I bring my men to me from long distances under many pleas. I seek them and bring them to me. They do not come (of their own accord). I bring them to me. However distance – even thousands of miles away- my people might be, I draw them to myself, just as we pull bird to us with a string tied to their foot.
