After doing fasting on a Thursday, all
my family planned to visit venkateswara temple and saibaba temple. Because of traffic, we got delayed and thought of going
to the balaji temple next week.In my mind, saibaba insisted me to go venkateswara temple.It is not sub concious , it
was instructed directly to me. We all went to venkateswara temple. To our surpirse, that is the last day of Bahmostavalu.
We all partcipitated with zeal and happiness. We all carried the Balaji pallaki. It was second time in life to carry like
that( first time perfomed in Geetasramam ,Minneapolis,MN on Rama Navami,Urs utsavam). In India, we saw in TV.We can
not think to go Tirumala during utsavalu becuase of heavy crowd and summer.
These are just blessings and guidelines
of Saibaba , if we believe saibaba with all our trust and belief, Baba takes care of many things in our daily life.
Sairam... Sairam... Sairam....
I came to US on an intra company transfer visa in 2000 and use to visit the Balaji temple at Pittsburg regularly.
I
was trying to transfer this current visa to H1 but was not successful. In the year 2004, one of my relatives
took us to
the Sai Baba temple at Pittsburg which we were not aware till then. After the archana the temple
priest gave us a photo
of "Sai Baba sitting on the stone". We go this photo and kept it in our pooja along with other
dieties. From that day onwards
things changed for us.
1. My sister told us about the Sai Sat Charitra book which me and my wife are reading in regularly
to this day.
2. We got our visa transferred to H1 within a couple of months which I was trying for 3 years .
3. My
current visa was expiring on Dec 2004 and I had to get a job on my new H1 visa before the expiration. With Baba's grace
I
got the lucky break in Nov 2004.
The photo in our house has a strange grace. YOu feel like looking at Baba's photo
again and again and so many times tears
just flow out of your eyes. This photo of Baba has some magic in it which I cannot
explain but can only experience.
All of the above incidents has only increased my faith in Baba.
Bow to Shri Sai,
Peace be to all.
