Sai Baba’s Udi Is Extraordinary

Sai Baba’s Udi Is Extraordinary

Baba had a number of disciples following him. One day, one of his most favourite disciples, Tatya, had fallen sick. He had not come to the mosque for several days, and Baba became worried. So Baba decided to pay a visit to Tatya at his home. Sai set out, concerned for his dear disciple and his mother, taking with him some udi from the dhuni lit at the Dwarkamai mosque.

 
 

When Baba reached Tatya’s house, he saw him lying on the bed, looking weak and in pain. His mother was sitting beside him and she too looked distressed. “Please save my son,” begged the mother, “He has high fever and has been sleeping all these days.”
 
Sai went closer to his disciple and he gently massaged the udi on his forehead. Moments after Sai had massaged the udi onto Tatya’s forehead, he regained consciousness. He uttered, “Sai Baba” and then he opened his eyes. Baba was glad to see his dear devotee awake and said to him, “I have been waiting for you, but since you could not come to me, I came to you.”
 
Tatya, of course, could not understand or explain what happened. “All I remember is lying down to sleep after I had returned from meeting you and now I am awake,” said Tatya, confused.
 
 “You have had very high fever all these days.
 
Then Baba came this morning and cured you from the sickness,” explained his mother. “Thank you, Baba. Thank you for saving my life!” said Tatya.
 After Baba saved the life of his favourite disciple, Tatya, news of the miraculous udi spread fast. More people began to visit Shirdi to seek Sai Baba’s blessings; even the sick and the ailing also visited Shirdi especially so that they get treated by the extraordinary udi.
 
 Faith Works
 
Amongst the many that went for the udi was an unfortunate man who had a visually impaired mother and a sister who had problems in her leg. His wife was found to have tuberculosis so he took her to be treated by the priest of the village who was also a physician.
 
The physician, however, was extremely jealous of Sai Baba. He was furious when he found out that this man was also a devotee of Sai Baba.
 
“Since you are such a great follower of Sai Baba, what are you doing here with me? I refuse to treat your wife any longer. Go and take her, along with your mother and sister, to your great Sai Baba and never show your face here again?” said the physician to the man.
 
 

 
 

Upon reaching the Dwarkamai mosque, the man fell down on his knees before Sai Baba and touched his feet. He told him about his family and begged the saint to cure them.
 
The man had great faith in Sai Baba. He was not worried that the priest had refused to treat his wife and that he threw him out of the temple. All that mattered to him was that he had made it to the home of Sai Baba, certain that Sai would be able to help him.
 
Taking out three packets of udi, Sai said, “Take these three packets of udi. One should be given to your wife. Use the second packet and rub on your sister’s feet and give the third packet to your mother. She can use it for washing her eyes. Just remember that it was your faith that led you here, it is also your faith that will help you.”
 
The man thanked Sai and went home. He did as he was told with the udi. His mother’s vision was restored, his sister walked, and his wife was no longer sick. Sai’s miracle unfolded before his eyes.
