As is in Shri Sai Satcharita, by Hemadpant .. Chapter XXX Page 159

Om Sai Shri Sai Jaya Jaya Sai

Bow to the Kind Sai Who is the Abode of Mercy and Who is affectionate towards His devotees.  By His mere darshana, He does away with their fear of this 'bhava' (samsar) and destroys their calamities.  He was first Nirgun (formless), but on account of the devotion of His Bhaktas, He was obliged to take a form.  To give liberation-self-realization to the Bhaktas is the mission of the Saints, and for Sai- the Chief of them, that mission is inevitable.  Those, who take refuge in His Feet, have all their sins destroyed and their progress is certain. 

Bow to Shri Sai - Peace be to all

Om Sai Shri Sai Jaya Jaya Sai

"After hearing Your fame, I came to Your Feet, and why should a calamity befall me, when You are standing here in person?"  Baba said, "You must suffer the consequences of your action."  He said- "I have not done anything in this life, which would bring such a misfortune on me,"  Baba said- "If not in this life, you must have committed some sin in your past life."  He replied- "I do not know anything, of my past life, but assuming that I did commit some sin then why should it not be burnt and destroyed in Your presence, as happens to dry grass before fire?"  Baba- "Have you got such faith?"  He- "Yes."

It is alwasy the experience of the Bhaktas that God always helps them in their search for Sadguru and other spiritual endeavours.

Lakhamichand was surprised to see, that the features of the old man he saw in his dream, tallied exactly with those in the picture, and thus he came to the conclusion,  that the old man he saw in his dream, was Sai Baba Himself.  The sight of this picture, Das Ganu's kirtan, and the life of the Saint Tukaram on which Das Ganu discoursed, all these things made a deep impression on his mind and he decided to go to Shirdi.

It was (and is) always the practice of Das Ganu to keep Baba's picture in front of the audience, while making the kirtan.

Sai Baba often said that-let His man (Devotee) be at any distance, a thousand koss away from Him, he will be drawn to Shirdi like a sparrow, with a thread tied to its feet.

"Once when I sat at His Feet along with many others, I had two questions in my mind and He gave answers to both.

(1) There are so may crowding to Sai Baba.  Do they all get benefit from Him?

To this, He replied orally - "Look at the mango tree in blossom.  If all the flowers brought fruit, what a splendid crop it would be.  But do they?  Most fall off (either as flower or as unripe fruits) by wind etc.  Very few remain."

(2) The second question was about myself.  If Baba were to pass away, how hopelessly adrift I would be and how am I to fare then?  To this Baba answered that He would be with me when and wherever I thought of Him.  That promise He had kept up before 1918 and has been keeping up after 1918.  He is still with me.  He is still guiding me.
