Baba used to give Aashirwad to His devotees with Udi by standing at the rails of Dwarakamayee by wearing violet colour edged Peethambaram. He saw this. He loved Baba sincerely. His family was full of Sai devotion. After his first visit in 1911, they started with a group of bhajan and Arati performed there daily which was called as Sai Laj. His father fell sick with phenomena in 1913 and it became quite serious. One Dr. Naik treated him said that his case is serious and got no belief in survival. His mother made a vow to Baba that if her husband cured from death bed, she would come to Shirdi by walk and take darshan of Baba. Besides this, the people of Sai Laj came and did bhajan in the name of Baba before the patient. His uncle also came with his bhajan Mandali and did bhajan and cold to his sister that his brother-in-law would not die on phenomena. Doctor Naik came ac 10-00 P.M. and given an injection co the patient and told to all that the patient will live only upto 12 O' clock midnight. Bhagwat Geeta read out to the patient to hear it. After 11 P.M. the patient began to suffocate and felt hard to breathe. At this time, patient's wife wailed like any­thing and bawled out "Baba save my husband”. The suffocation lasted till 1 A. M. They told the situation to the doctor. The doctor came and examined the patient and gave one injection and told that crisis were over and now the patient*s status was within his look­out. All the Bhajan went on till 4 AM and all of them told the patient's wife, that Baba has yielded her requ­est and that she should be ready for Shirdi trip on foot. From that time patient improved day by day and cured completely in few months. As per the vow of the patient's wife, patient, patient's  wife    and   the

bhajan Mandal came on foot upto Kopergaon. From Kopergaon all came in 5 carts to Shirdi whereas patie­nt's wife alone followed the cart on foot up to SHIRDI as per her vow. She came to some distance in an uneven stony and thorny way and felt uneasy with swollen legs and sat below a tree. A man with white beard in shepherd dress straight away came to her and told her that her vow had been accepted by Baba and that there was no harm in getting into the cart and go over to Shirdi. But she did not accept and came away by foot along upto Shirdi. At that time Baba asked Jog to stop the Arati for a little time. In the mean­while all came to Arati. Baba told to Nanasaheb that I met her on the way and told her to come in cart. But she refused and came by foot. See how her legs, were! They will be alright by the evening. They all stayed at Shirdi and gone to their homes with Baba's permission safe and sound.

In May, 1916, a lady devotee from Bombay came to Baba for darshan. At that time Baba and two other women Smt. Janabai and Smt. Laxmibai were grinding wheat flower in the grinding stone. She asked Baba that she would grind the wheat. Baba told her that she would feel fatigue in grinding the wheat. She replied that she would grind as much as she possible to grind. Baba asked Laxmibai to leave the grinding stone to her. She began to grind the wheat. She questioned Baba why the wheat was grinding ? Baba replied that He would save the devotees at times. She also questioned why Baba was going to the stream side and throwing the wheat flour ? Baba told that at times "Akkabai"  (Maari Ayi, Maariamma, Cholera and small pox etc.) wanted to enter the village and I prevented them on the other side of the stream and not allow them in the village. That is why I have to feed them and that I throw the flour to them. She again asked Baba whether there is "Jari" "Mari" (Durdevatha). Baba replied there exists "Durdevatha but they won't do anything harm to us". For that she told Baba that some were dying on account of Durdevatha for which Baba told that Durdevatha was scolding me to allow her to enter the village. At that time, I request the Almighty and gave her the allotted persons to her. Again she asked Baba, "whether there are evil sprits"  Baba told that there are evil spirits and that they won't do any harm to us". She told when she was in Naigaom in Bombay a figure of an evil spirit used to come from the well side ' and go to the room in the upstairs and disappear. Baba told her that he knows him and he was the house owner of her house and he became an evil spirit and further told her that he used to disappear only in the room where she delivered". She told Baba as to how he knew all these facts"? Baba replied that He knows her from her childhood and further told her you have forgotten me. I will call off my children even if they were one thousand miles away. My care will always be alike towards all. All men good, bad & rowdies are coming to Me I have to look for all of them.

During these conversation, she felt tired in grinding the wheat flour and asked Laxmibai to continue grinding work. All the three finished the grinding work and the Bombay lady knew well about evil spirits.
