Baba lights the lamps with Water.
Baba used to get oil for lighting the lamps in the mosque from the oil vendors. One day, the oil vendors planned a strategy and said that there is no oil stock with them. When all the vendors replied in the same vain, Baba returned to the Masjid, unperturbed. He drank a little bit of oil that is left in his tin, poured water in all the oil lamps and lit them. The shop keepers who wanted to see the plight of Baba in dark, were watching the proceedings secretly. When Baba struck the match stick, the wicks were started glowing in the light flame and continued to glow. All the traders were wonder struck at the astonishing happening. With mere water, Baba was able to light the lamps in the masjid. All the traders came to the presence of Baba and begged his forgiveness for not supplying him oil. Baba told them to be more truthful in future. Sairam.
