To revert to the distribution of the naivaidya.  -After the Arti was over and after Baba sent away all the people with Udi and blessings.  He went inside and sat behind a curtain with His back to the Nimbar for meals, with two rows of the Bhaktas, one on each side.  The Bhaktas, who brought naivaidya, thrust inside their dishes containing a variety of food, such as Puris, Mande, Polis, basundi, Sanza, fine rice etc., and kept waiting outside, for Prasad consecrated by Baba.  All the foods were mixed in a hotch-potch and placed before Baba.  He offered it all to God and consecrated it.  Then portions of the same were given to the persons waiting outside; and the rest was served to the inner party, with Baba at the centre.  The Bhaktas sitting in two rows then dined to their hearts' content.  Baba asked Shama and Nanasheb Nimonkar, daily to serve the consecrated food to all the persons sitting inside, and look to their individual needs and comforts.  This they did very carefully and willingly.  Every morsel of the food thus partaken gave them nutrition and satisfaction.  Such sweet, lovely and consecrated food it was!  Ever auspicious and ever holy!

The Parley went on for a while.  Baba repeatedly ordering to break the coconut and Shama pleading for the gift of the entire fruit to the lady.  Finally Baba yielded and said-"She will have an issue."  "when?" asked Shama.  "In 12 months" was the reply.  At this, the coconut was broken into two parts, one was eaten by the two, the other was given to the lady.

Baba - "Will the coconut give her any issue? How people are foolish and fancy such things!"

Shama  - "I know the power of Your word and blessing,  Your word will give her a string or series of children.  You are wrangling and not giving real blessing."

The boy was made to sit before Baba,  Who moved his hands on the affected part and cast, His loving glances on him.  The patient was pleased, and with the application of the Udi, he began to recover, and was all right after some days.  The parents then left Shirdi with their son, thanking Baba for the cure, which was effected by Udi and Baba's gracious looks.

In Malegaon (Dt. Nasik) there lived a doctor (qualified and degree-holder).  His nephew suffered from an incurable disease-Tubercular bone-abcess.  The doctor himself and his brothers, also medical practitioners, tried all sorts of remedies, and even an operation.  There was no relief, and there was no end to the little boy's suffering.  Friends and relations advised the parents of the boy, to seek divine aid; and recommended them to try Sai Baba, who was known to have cured such incurable cases, by His mere glance.  The parents, therefore, came to Shirdi.  They prostrated themselves before Baba, placed the boy before Him and pleaded humbly and respectfully, and implored Him to save their son.  The merciful Baba comforted them saying-

"Those, who resort to this Masjid, shall never suffer anything in this life and to the end of time; be now care-free.  Apply Udi on the abcess, and within one week he will recover.  Believe in God.  This is no Masjid, but Dwarawati.  He, who steps here, will soon get health and happiness and his sufferings will come to an end".

An old gentleman of Harda (C.P.) was suffering from a stone in his kidney,  Such stones are generally removed by surgical operations and people recommended him to undergo one.  He was old and weak, lacked strength of mind, and could not think of submitting himself to surgical treatment.  His suffering was soon to end, in another way.  The Inamdar (City Officer) of that town happened to come there at this time.  He was a devotee of Baba; and had always a stock of Udi with him.  On the recommendation of friends, his son got some Udi from him and, after mixing it with water, gave it to his old father to drink.  Within five minutes, the Udi was assimilated, the stone was dissolved and came out through his urine, and old man was soon relieved.
