RECENT LEELA OF BABA-PART 6

How Baba proved that there ware no Shishyas, Relatives, Incarnations or Successors to inherit His legacy?

Shri Sai Baba of Shirdi took His Mahasamadhi on 15th October, 1918. Upto 1922, no proper arrangements to look after the Mahasamadhi were made. Ultimately, Shri Kakasaheb Dixit, seeing the sad state of affairs as conducted by the village set up an office with a Managing Committee under the Public Trust Act, with the approval of the District Court Ahmednagar.

PROOF 1

At that time, Shri Abdul Baba performed the daily 'Abhishek' to the Samadhi. So, the 'Mahanaivedya' (food offering) was handed over him. Also, he was allowed to live in the room on the left side, adjacent to the Samadhi. He was the only local leading devotee of Sai Baba. He had collected about four to five thousand rupees of 'Dakshina' amount given by Baba's devotees. Enjoying these privileges, he thought, he was the legal heir to Baba. Some of his well wishers fuelled the idea that the Trust formed was an the injustice against him. Thus he filed a suit against the Trust, in the District Court of Ahmadnagar.
By the Grace of Baba, the District Court passed order against Abdul Baba, saying that there were no hairs or successors to Shri Sai Baba and he had no right to the maintenance of the Samadhi or in the working of the newly formed Trust. The Mahanaivedya given to him was stopped, and he was asked to vacate the room.
Baba had said that he would have the Divine Powers for a thousand years to look after the welfare of His devotees. It was thus proved by Baba Himself that there were no Shishyas, relatives, incarnations or successors to Him.

PROOF 2

The Fate of Shri Muktaram, a staunch devotee of Baba, when he wanted to occupy Baba's Gadi .

Shri Muktaram was a staunch devotee of Shri Sai Baba. Sai Baba had given him a Kafni. He lived in Dixit Wada and kept a Dhuni. a few days after Baba's Mahasamadhi, he forcibly occupied Baba's Gadi in Dwarkamai, against the wishes of the villagers.
As soon as he sat there, he began to vomit blood and was taken to his residence in Dixit Wada. The devotees thought of taking him to the Kopergaon hospital; but before it could be decided as to who should accompany him, he died in Dixit Wada itself. His Samadhi is in Lendi Baug.

This incident clearly shows that Baba was not willing to allow anybody to occupy His Gadi.
