Sai Baba Katha

Bahut samay pehle ek shahar mein Sai Baba ke param bhakt dampati rehte the, jinka naam Kokila aur Maheshbhai tha. Kokila bahut dharmik, saral aur sahan-sheel stri thi aur uska Sai Baba mein atoot vishwas tha. Vah apne pati se bahut prem karti thi, lekin vyapar mein haani ke karan Maheshbhai ka swabhav chidchida ho gaya tha aur ve aksar Kokila se jhagda karte the. Ek din dopahar ke samay unke ghar ek tejasvi vriddh Baba aaye aur bhiksha maangi. Kokila ne shraddha se unhe daal-chawal bhiksha mein diye. Prasann hokar Baba ne kaha, “Beti, Shraddha aur Saburi ke saath 9 Guruvaar ka Sai Baba Vrat kar, teri sabhi manokamanayen poorn hongi.” Itna kahkar ve adrishya ho gaye.

Tab Kokila samajh gayi ki ve swayam Sai Baba the. Usne poore vishwas ke saath 9 Guruvaar ka vrat aarambh kiya, Sai Baba ki pooja ki, gareebon ko bhojan karaya aur dharmik pustaken daan ki. Dheere-dheere chamatkar hone lage. Maheshbhai ka swabhav badal gaya, unka vyapar phir se achchha chalne laga aur ghar mein sukh-shanti laut aayi. Kuch samay baad uski jethani, jo apne bachchon ki padhai ko lekar pareshan thi, uske ghar aayi. Kokila ne use bhi 9 Guruvaar Vrat ki mahima batayi. Jethani ne shraddha se vrat kiya aur Sai Baba ki kripa se uske bachchon ka man padhai mein lagne laga tatha ve achchhe ankon se pariksha mein safal ho gaye. Is prakar Sai Baba ki kripa se sabhi ki manokamanayen poorn hui aur unke jeevan mein sukh, shanti tatha samriddhi ka vaas ho gaya.
