How Minatai was saved by Baba.

The efficacy of Baba's Udhi is well illustrated in the episode of Nana Saheb Chandorkar's daughter Minatai's crucial delivery time. Nana saheb was in Jamner at that time. His daughter Minatai developed labor pains. For two days she was suffering from severe pain without any relief. Nana tried many remedies and at last he remembered Saibaba and prayed to him earnestly. At that time Baba was seated in Dwarakamai and he called one devotee who was about to depart to his native which is beyond Jalagam. Baba told him to go to Jamner and hand over the Udhi to Nanasaheb and a copy of Arati song was also given along with that. The man pleaded, "Baba i am having money for journey upto Jalgaom. How i can go to Jamner which is far away? Baba said, "Allah will provide". After taking the Udhi, Arati song and Baba's permission, the devotee left for Jalgam. He was hardly having any money for his further journey to Jamner. He was in a perplexed situation. Suddenly he heard a voice calling his name. He was astonished to find a Peon with turban, who told him that he is coming from Nanasaheb. He has sent the tonga for the journey. Gaining confidence, he ascended the tonga and they reached the outskirts of Jamner. The peon asked him to partake some food which was sent by Nana saheb. After eating they reached Jamner. The peon halted the cart to ease himself. The devotee also went out to ease himself. On return he found that there was no cart or peon. He grew anxious and went near a taluk office where some one guided him to the house of Nanasaheb. At that time, the condition of Minatai grew worse. The devotee handed over the Udhi from Baba to Nanasaheb with a copy of Arti. Nana become calm and asked his wife to give the udhi mixed with water to their daughter. Arati song was recited. Instantly a baby was born and everybody were happy. This is the nature of Saibaba. He anticipates the problems of his devotees and assuages them in time. Saisaran, Sairam.
