This story narrates an incident where Sai Baba answered a
devotee. Once Baba was sitting in the Masjid. A devotee sat in front of Him,
when a lizard tick-ticked. Out of curiosity, the devotee asked Baba whether this
tick-ticking of the lizard signified anything; was it a good sign or a bad omen?
Baba said that the lizard was overjoyed as her sister from Aurangabad was coming
to see her. The devotee sat silent, not making out the meaning of Baba's words.
Immediately, a gentle-man from Aurangabad came on horse-back to see Baba. He
wanted to proceed further, but his horse would not go, as it was hungry and
wanted grams. He took out a bag from his shoulders to bring grams and dashed it
on the ground to remove dirt. A lizard came out therefrom and in the presence of
all, climbed up the wall. Baba asked the ques-tioner devotee to mark her well.
She at once went strutting to her sister. Both sisters met each other after a
long time, kissed and em-braced each other, whirled round and danced with love!
Where is Shirdi and where is Aurangabad? How should the man on horse-back come
there from Aurangabad with the lizard? And how should Baba make the prophesy of
the meeting of the two sisters? All this is really very wonderful and proves the
omniscience -- the all-knowing nature of Baba.
Bow to Shirdi Sai
Baba -- Peace be to all.
