Damu anna's cotton business and Baba's sane advise.

When Damodar Savalram Nasne(Damu anna) was contemplating on doing trading in cotton business, he wanted to consult Baba. Hence, he has sent a letter to Baba seeking his opinion. The letter was brought by Shama and kept at Baba's feet. Baba said, 'what is the letter'?. Shama told him that it is from Damu Anna. Baba quipped, "Why Damu is after gaining lakhs of rupees, Let him remain content with his wealth". Even before the letter was opened, Baba could know the content of the letter. Shama was astonished and drafted a suitable reply to Damu anna. When the letter reached Damu anna, he was perplexed and thought that he has done a mistake in consulting Baba. However Shama has written him that there is a difference in listening and seeing Baba. Hence Damu anna reached Shirdi and was messaging the feet of Baba. He was thinking in his mind, that it would be wise to share some profit with Baba". Even while he was thinking like this, Baba told him, "I do not want to get embroiled in such worldly affairs. This was enough for Damu anna and he returned. During the season, there was plenty of harvest of cotton and all those who hoarded cotton met with heavy loss. Fortunately Baba saved Damu anna by his timely advise. Sairam, Saisaran.
