Baba attends a function at a distant place incognito.
Saibaba never moved out of Shirdi except on few occasions when he used to visit 'Rahata" and other nearby places. Once B.V.Deo, a mamlatdar of Dahanu invited Saibaba for a lunch at Dahanu on the occasion of fulfillment of vows undertaken by his mother. Around 200 brahmins will be fed on that day. Hence Deo invited Baba through a letter. When it reached Shirdi, Babu saheb Jog, a devotee brought it to Baba. Before opening the letter, Baba told him, Tell him that you, me and one more man will participate in the lunch. On the particular day one Sanyasi who had come earlier to Dahanu for collecting some subscription for a noble cause(saving the cow) asked Deo to arrange collection. Deo told him that already some collections are being handled by him and hence he could come some months later. Hence when he saw the Sanyasi on the day of the lunch, he asked him whether he had come for collection. The sanyasi told Deo, that he had come for meals. Deo told him OK and where he should contact them when the meals are ready. The sanyasi told Deo, he had two more accompanies and he will himself come along with the appropriate time (12 noon). Accordingly all the three came and taken their food in Deo's house. Deo felt Baba had promised to come but he has not attended the function and hence he wrote a letter to Shirdi expressing his sadness. As soon as the letter was brought to Baba's presence, Baba told him, i have actually attended the function along with two others under the garb of a sanyasi. Why he called me and finds fault with me ? This was conveyed to Deo, who felt remorse of blaming Baba. Actually he failed to recognise Baba who came in the form of Sanyasi. Sairam.
