From time to time Sai Sister Meera Ji has been keen to
share even slightest of her experiences with Lord Sai Baba. Here are two more
experiences. I have a question Sai Sister Meera Ji did get find your lost
valuables? I did not get any clue in the end regarding this.
Sai Sister Meera Ji from USA says: Dear Sai Sister Hetal Ji, I want to share one
more event that just happened yesterday. Somehow I don't find the link to share
the experience. Anyway, my experience is as below.
I have read many devotees posts, where they were in need of certain amount of
money and it was provided miraculously and Sai Devotee would see that as BABA's
grace. For me too, it just happened that I had requested 3 bedroom apartment,
which was impossible to find that would fit in my budget and yet it DID happen
and I am right now living in that apartment.
My youngest grand daughter's birthday falls on 21st December and I wanted to
mail her Birthday gift. The elder one is just 5 year old so naturally she would
think why she did not get any gift? So I bought something for her too. And just
after a few days, it is Christmas and here in USA it is a great fever to send
and receive gifts. So I thought let me send a check of $151.00 Dollars, $ 50/-
for each child and $ 25/- for my son and $ 25/- for my daughter in law. Then I
had a second thought that the children aged 5 and 2 would not have that much fun
to just know that Grand ma has sent some gift money. But opening a gift wrap and
find a gift inside would give them immense joy.
So last minute I changed my mind and went to buy some items at K-mart store. I
selected a few items and thought that if that goes beyond my budget, I would
take out one or two items. But let me see first how much the total is. It came
out to $ 132.29. OK. Now I had to pack all in a gift wrap and manage to put them
in a box.
Usually, I use large size flat rate box which costs about $15 and one can put
whatever fits in there. There is no weight restriction. But this time, my items
were not going to fit in that box. So I got a large box and everything fit in
there. Not a one more item could be added now. That's how it was packed well. I
took the box to post office, and for the mailing cost I had no idea how much it
would be. You won't believe it came to $ 33.79 ($ 132.29 + 33.79 = 166.08). Now
you see, I was prepared for $ 151.00 extra for Christmas gifts for them apart
from the Birthday gifts mailing. 151.00 + 15.00 = 166.00. Whooohooo. Isn't it
amazing to come to this figure without even my paying that much attention while
buying or packing the box? So I thought this is something that I should share
with others!
And I wanted to share also is that it is not that I got such blessings only, I
have received some punishment too for going away from BABA's teachings. BABA
always says that do not bring "I" in whatever you do in your life. At one time,
I had some arguments with my husband and I told him that it's always "ME" that
take pains and care to save money by returning things and save money. You or
both our sons are not paying any attention, when it comes to saving money by
returning things etc.
I keep my driver's license and a credit card in one wallet and SS card (Social
security card) was there with my second wallet that I carry with my business
cards. SS card usually do not need to be carried on person, but I was looking
for a new job and when we are called for interview, they ask for it. So I had
kept it with my business card to make sure that I don't lose it. I was keeping
it with my daily wallet. And the very same day, I was in a store to buy
something and I did notice my SS card and a cash card worth $100.00 (for
returning some goods without receipt was given to me by Home Depot that was with
me for almost 1 1/2 year and could not use it) were there with me while taking
out my business card to give to fellow customer who showed interest in my
painting. But when I reached home, I did not find that second wallet in my
purse. I searched everywhere. I went back to each and every isle in that store
and event went to other stores too to see if I might have dropped that wallet. I
checked with the store manager too if anyone has reported that as "lost and
found" item. NO. They did not receive such item.
Oh, No. It just vanished. I have no idea where it went. Either someone in the
store, where I was handing out my visiting card and my purse was open for a few
seconds or someone stole it or what, I don't know. I did have noticed some weird
looking Mexican guy and had felt strange feeling about him. But in USA, I never
have come across pick-pocketing as such. So I don't want to blame that Mexican
guy. But my SS card gone is a serious matter and I had to go through a very
lengthy process to have a duplicate one.
And the Home Depot card was my total loss as there is no way to track that down.
BABA taught me a lesson not to let "I" come in my way of living. I would
appreciate if you post this too!
Jai Sai Ram.
