Baba gives Dharsan in various forms.

Once a Doctor came to Shirdi along with his friend. The Doctor told him that he wont prostrate before Baba, since he is a devotee of 'Rama". However, he accompanied his friend to Dwarakamai where Baba stays. As soon as he came inside the mosque, he went first and prostrated in front of Baba. His friend enquired how he prostrated before Baba against his own wishes. The Doctor told him that he saw his own beloved "Rama" in the Masjid and hence he prostrated. Coming to the second episode, there was once a Doctor Pandit who was a disciple of "Kaka Puranik". He came to the Masjid along with one Dada pat Kelkar. This gentleman has brought "Puja materials to worship Baba. Dr.Pandit took sandal paste from the Puja materials and applied Thilak on the forehead of Baba. Every body were astonished. Baba usually prevented anybody from applying sandal paste except Mahlsapathy. When enquired, Baba told them that Dr.Pandit considered him as his Guru, Kaka Puranik and hence he has not prevented him from applying sandal paste. There was one Mule Sasthri, who was an expert in palmistry, who came to Shirdi to meet Shri Bhuti. He was staying in his room, performing the rituals etc. In the Masjid, Baba called Buti and asked him to fetch Dakshina from the Nasik Brahmin, Mule Sasthri. As soon as Mr.Buti conveyed the message to Sasthri, he was perturbed. Why i should bow before Sai and offer him dakshina, i am not his disciple. However since the millionaire Buti himself came there, he accompanied him to the Masjid. Prior to that Baba asked the devotees to bring "Jeru", a colouring material to colour the cloths so that he can wear the jeru coloured cloth. Meanwhile Mule sasthri, accompanied by Buti, came to the Masjid. As soon as he came inside, he prostrated before Baba. Every body was wondering, how the orthodox Sasthri prostrated before Baba. When enquired, he revealed that he saw his late Guru Kolab maharaj in the place of Baba and was wearing the Jeru colour cloth. These are all the miraculous ways by which Baba gives Dharsan to various people. Sairam.
