The great yogi came out to the edge of the masjid and ordered the storm to stop. At last, people flocked to the masjid and prayed to Baba to quell the storm. The many local deities were sought to be appeased but in vain.

One evening there was a terrible and destructive storm at Shirdi and the little village was flooded with incessant rain. Bible has a similar story of Christ turning water into wine to save the host of a wedding party from embarrassment.Ĭhrist like, he could command the winds and the rain. And lo, they started burning, and kept burning all throughout the night as if in defiance of the shopkeepers who later repented and became His disciples. Quite unperturbed, Baba filled his lamp containers with water and lighted the wicks.

Once, these merchants refused this little service to Him. He diverted the death of Ramachandra Patil and averted Tatya’s death taking it on Himself.īaba was in the habit of borrowing oil form the shopkeepers of the village for his little lamps that he kept burning the whole night, in both the masjid and the temple. Khaparde whose son was down with plague saying, “the sky is beset with clouds but they will melt and pass off and everything will be smooth and clear.” but as He lifted up His Kafni, four fully developed bubos, as big as eggs were visible. Sometimes, He took the sufferings of His devotees on Himself. The very first chapter in Satcharitha says that Baba pushed the Cholera epidemic out of the village by grinding wheat and throwing it on the village outskirts! These stories are simply too many. Baba’s Udi cured people of Bubonic plague many times. The Jamner episode of helping Chandorkar’s daughter out of a difficult delivery by sending her Udi and Arti is a series of miracles. Alandi Swami was cured of severe pain in the ear. Baba assured him with “the Fakir in the masjid very kind and He will cure the disease, and protect all with love and kindness.”īaba cured his disease by giving him two dreams! Bala Ganapat Shimpi was cured of malignant Malaria. Bhimaji Patil had chronic chest-disease that developed into Tuberculosis. With His gracious look, some lame ones got their legs. With Baba’s touch and without any drops or medicine being put in the eyes, some blind men got back their sight. Stories of Baba healing the sick and the ailing and even those suffering from incurable diseases like leprosy are well known and too many. Some of the miracles performed by Sai Baba are very similar to miracles performed by Christ as described in the Bible. Shri Sai Baba was an apostle of love just as Christ was known to be. Christmas stands for love, giving, and forgiveness. Jesus Christ was a personification of Divine Love.
