I visited Sai Baba at Shirdi only once. That was about 1909. When I went and bowed to Sai Baba, I sat in his presence and then a particular question cropped up in my mind. Baba told me to go to a Bai, saying that she was in the temple reading Puran. I went up and found an elderly (Brahmin) lady of about 50 years reading puran. I sat and listened. Therein what she read to me was the answer to what cropped up in my mind when I was in Baba’s presence. This was Baba’s way of giving me a solution.
