Sri Sai Baba's Love And Grace Envelop One And All

Aum Sairam

No prayers go unanswered. There is delay in answering of the prayers Sri Sai Baba, who knows our past, present and future is the best judge of what is useful for us and what we need. There is always a conflict of desires and needs in our life. Sri Sai Baba our master knows what our needs are and accordingly He pulls things to make our life comfortable based on our previous acts. Not all our desires are fulfilled. When we pray, we do it with the intention of getting things and we do not think of the consequences of fulfilling that need. But Sri Sai Baba our father gives us only that are good for us. Next time, when we think - alas! Sri Sai Baba has not heard my prayers, let us stop and reflect up on His teachings and know that - He did indeed answer our prayers and has given us what is good for us. He is the best judge. Do the duty and leave the results at His lotus feet. All will be well. Sri Sai Baba will always look after the welfare of His children.
Here is the related story,

Rutonji Shahpurji Wadia of Nanded had a great regard for Dasganu Maharaj Dasganu advised him to go to Shirdi, and take Sri Sai Baba's darshan, and fall at His lotus feet to seek His blessings and pray for issue. Ruttonji liked the idea, and decided to go to Shirdi. After some days he went to Shirdi, took Sri Sai Baba's darshan and fell at His lotus feet. Then opening a basket, he took out a beautiful garland of flowers and placed it around Sri Sai Baba’s neck and offered Him a basket of fruits. With great respect he sat near Sri Sai Baba, and prayed to Him saying- "Many persons who find themselves in difficult situations come to You, and You relieve them immediately. Hearting this, I have sought anxiously Your lotus feet, please, therefore, do not disappoint me. “Sri Sai Baba then asked him for Daksbina of Rs. Five which Ruttonji intended to give, but added, that He has already received Rs. 3-14-0 from him, and that he should pay the balance only.

Hearing this, Ruttonji was rather puzzled. He could not make out what Sri Sai Baba meant. That was the first time, he came to Shirdi and how was it that Sri Sai Baba said that He had formerly got Rs. 3-14-0 from him? He could not solve the riddle. But he sat at Sri Sai Baba's Feet and gave the balance of the Dakshina asked for, he explained to Sri Sai Baba fully, as to why he came and sought His help, and prayed that Sri Sai Baba should bless him with a son. Sri Sai Baba was moved and told him not to be worried, as his bad days have ended. Sri Sai Baba gave him Udi, placed His hand on his head and blessed him saying that Allah [God] would satisfy his heart's desire."
